By Matt Blake PUBLISHED: 14:14 EST, 1 November 2013 | UPDATED: 19:56 EST, 1 November 2013 Two engineering bosses have drunk fracking fluid in an attempt to show the world it is safe to use in the ground. John Gorman, vice-president of Halliburton, and Michael Binnion, chief executive of Questerre Energy Corp, drank samples from champagne bottles. They urged onlookers to sip the mixture – which is injected into the ground during the fracking process – and 20 other executives did so.
