Why do you say that? There are already a number of oil and gas wells in Southern England and most people would never know as their impact post drilling is minimal. There's two in Storrington just north of Worthing but I have no idea where they are despite having visited the town a few times.
If you're thinking it's going to look like parts of the USA with acres of nodding donkeys it just isn't going to be like that.

Re: Eureka! Black gold in Gatwick.
Yes we're not looking at anything remotely like that.
Maybe we should just leave it in the ground, wait for the lights to go out and then whine about that...

Re: Eureka! Black gold in Gatwick.
Use it build multiple nuclear power plants from there we can generate our energy needs all internally or use them to create a race of mutant superheroes which will form the basis of our future defence needs. Sorted.

Re: Eureka! Black gold in Gatwick.
For reference this is what the Storrington site looks like, almost obscured by surrounding vegitation:

Fracking unnecessary
Most experts believe fracking, or hydraulic fracturing, will be needed to get commercial quantities of oil from the region.
Concerns over fracking led to large-scale protests when Cuadrilla drilled at Balcombe, West Sussex, in 2013.
But UKOG has consistently stated that it is not intending to use fracking, which involves pumping water, sand and chemicals into rocks at high pressure to liberate the oil and gas trapped within.
It says that the oil at Horse Hill is held in rocks that are naturally fractured, which "gives strong encouragement that these reservoirs can be successfully produced using conventional horizontal drilling and completion techniques".
The company says further drilling and well testing will be needed to prove these initial results.
