Exxon Proceeding on Polish Shales Despite Setbacks

Rzeczpospolita is reporting that Exxon Mobil will drill at least six shale gas exploratory wells between the third quarter of 2012 and the third quarter of 201

These test wells will be in addition to the two shale gas wells completed in the fourth quarter of 2011 that proved to be not commercially viable as a result of  insufficient flow.

Exxon Mobil holds six licenses in Poland, two of them in the Lublin basin in central Poland together with Total and four in the Podlasie basin with Hutton Energy.
