Details: Last year’s event was held in Paris. This year, unconventional gas summit is coming to Kraków. Go there to hear industry professionals weigh in on the benefits of shale gas for Europe, including Staoil, Eni & ConocoPhilips. Interestingly, the director of the World Wildlife Fund will be there, and the documentary movie Haynesville will be screened as a counterweight to the anti-fracking Gasland. Seems like – finally – an international conference that’s taking on the PR issues challenging industry.
