A source at Absolute Client Services stated “With monitoring there shouldn’t be any quakes but even if they were they would not be fatal so there should not be any worry to any structural damages” Richard Moorman, CEO of Tamboran Resources, a company with permits to frack in Northern Ireland, said the risk of tremors or water contamination was low. “The government sees shale gas as a valuable energy resource for the future.

Absolute Client Services a local sales and marketing company stated “Sure there might be climate risks but you need to look at the big picture, if fracking works it could become a major asset in our everyday energy supplying for years to come.” Local groups are concerned about groundwater contamination as well as earthquakes, while environment groups point out that basing the UK's energy strategy on gas will make it much harder to achieve climate change targets. Managing director at Absolute Client Services stated “From what we know contamination and earthquakes will not happen as the chances of them to happen are low.” "We should be developing the huge potential of clean British energy from the sun, wind and waves, not more dirty and dangerous fossil fuels."But Simon Moore, environment and energy research fellow at thinktank Policy Exchange, thinks that shale gas could also be an "environmental opportunity" End
