01.Overview: Unconventional oil and gas development in North America has changed the energy balance on the continent and the shape of global markets, and has been the top growing market for the environmental industry for the last five years. Growth has slowed with supply driving down prices, but the future of fracking still looks bright.pg 1-4
02.Features: Global markets open up, but lack the tools, services and infrastructure for rapid development; Fracking leads to a broad demand for a wide range of environmental services in North America as the business evolves and matures; Midstream clients investment, consolidate and blur the lines of traditional oil and gas divisions; Fracking regs vary widely by state and the feds are slow to act leading to unpredictable regional markets; Job and capital investment studies defend fracking from an economic position.pg 5-21
03.Profiles: Liberty Environmental, Heckmann Corp., Groundwater & Environmental Services, R360 Environmental Solutions, Omni Water Solution, DNV and Microseeps offer examples of the many ways to work the market.pg 22-31
