Today we take a look at British Drilling and Freezing Company Limited, Private Road No.3, Colwick Industrial Estate, Colwick, Nottingham NG4 2BB.
We speak to a member of staff who was OK until the word fracking was mentioned.
We then get a boss come out who was brilliant.

@@spacehopper77 It took over 10,000 wells in the US Eagle Ford Shale to reach commerciality. Fracking has been going on for over a hundred years - the reason it isn't happening in the UK is purely technical. There is no money to be made from fracking here, unless you are a snakeoil salesman and are happy hoovering up a few bucks from gullible investors. But then you are well educated, so the rest of us (with skin in the game) must be thick.

This is really heart breaking. My father worked in the North Sea on Alpha and Brent in the 70's. He also worked on the gas pipeline that runs right through our entire country now void of gas in the late 70's early 80's. We are all freezing because of net zero but it's ok to purchase the oil and gas from overseas at a ridiculous inflated price. We have it all here, so much of it we can sell the surplus. Our MP's have loaded themselves with personal stocks and share in foreign Gas & Oil companies, they would not want to open our sites, it would hurt their bank balance. WAKE UP YOU SHEEP ! Just STOP the Just Stop OIL TARDS !

I think most large organisations have a policy regarding contact with photographers, or people wanting information. I worked for the Brisbane City Council in Brisbane, Australia and anyone who wanted to have cooperation from employees in recording and acquiring information etc required written approval from our divisional manager. It was more a case of ensuring the right person for the information and access required than anything else.
