BusinessGreen: Shale gas developer Cuadrilla has revealed how it plans to step up its operations in the north of England, following the recent publication of government estimates suggesting the region contains significantly more gas reserves than originally thought.

BusinessGreen: The UK's fledgling shale gas industry received a major boost today as new research suggested the country has significantly higher reserves than had been first thought and the government underlined its commitment to developing the sector.
