HOUSTON (AP) — An independent review of a University of
Texas study into hydraulic fracturing found the research did not meet
standards for scientific work.
The Energy Institute researched
hydraulic fracturing and water contamination. The head of the study,
Chip Groat, had not revealed he was on the board, and had received in
2011 $413,000 in cash and stock from Plains Exploration and Production
Co.
The review panel says in its report, released Friday, that
Groat's failure to disclose this was a "principal shortcoming" in the
research because it could have put into question the study's
credibility. It says the research "fell short of contemporary standards
for scientific work."
Groat retired last month. The institute's director resigned Monday.
The university says it accepts the review's recommendations, including strengthening its conflict of interest policies.
