Fracking in Ukraine has been used since the 1950s. The first fracking operation in Ukraine was conducted in 1954 for the underground coal gasification project.[1] There has been a strong revival of interest in the fracking industry in Ukraine.[2] According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, Ukraine has third-largest shale gas reserves in Europe at 128 trillion cubic feet (3.6 trillion cubic metres).[3] As of 2011, approximately 22 domestic and foreign-owned companies have been engaged in fracking in Ukraine.[4]
