groundwater resources. This creates a barrier between the well,
including the produced fluids within, and all adjacent groundwater
sources outside the wellbore. This ensures wellbore integrity, the
isolation of shallow aquifers, and prevention of cross-flow
contamination when completing and operating wells for production or
injection.

- CHEVRON ROMANIA DAFORA MEDIAS: Tell us the truth about the deadly accident in Pungesti!
- According to locals and employees of the drilling subcontractor
s.c. DAFORA S.A. one worker has died on May 18-19 on Chevron's illegal
shale gas exploration site in Pungesti/Romania.
So far, NO official statements of CHEVRON ROMANIA or DAFORA have
confirmed these information, nor has the media been informed about the
accident.
Since the name of Pungesti has become a symbol of the antifracking fight
in Romania, we, the citizens of Romania, deserve to know the truth
about this recent and apparently deadly accident. Therefore, we ask you
to give us an answer to the following questions:
1. Is it true that a serious accident has happened recently on Chevron's
drilling site in Pungesti?
2. Have there been death casualties?
3. What was the cause of the accident and the death of the employee?
4. What is the name of this person, of what age and specialization has
he been and where did he come from?
