Shale gas may allow Poland to revise gas deal supply deal with Gazprom

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk told that with Gazprom’s contract to supply on gas to Poland may be modified in future if the prospects for shale gas in Poland prove to be positive.

Appearing on Radio ZET, Tusk was answering a question about the merits of signing a long-term gas pact with Gazprom in view of the potential of shale gas. The deal, agreed upon but not signed, is under review  by The European Commission.

Poland may have the best prospects for shale gas in Europe. Lane Energy will be undertaking the first drilling in the country, which is expected to commence in a few weeks.
