Nuclear Blast Test Aimed to Free Gas From Tight Formations
Denver officials report that a 40 kiloton underground nuclear blast at the Rulison site in Colorado was designed to increase the flow of natural gas from geologically tight formations. State Geologist John Reld notes the test avoided surface radioactivity and disasters, and aims to meet projected U.S. gas demand of 400 trillion cubic feet by 1985. Austral Oil, sponsor, plans further drilling to study the underground reservoir created by the explosion.
