Star Energy Group Ltd is a wholly-owned subsidiary of UK oil and gas firm IGas Energy, which bought the company in 2011.
In April 2016 IGas announced it had acquired and was conducting seismic tests on two new sites at Bridge Trafford in Cheshire. The sites were reportedly located near the epicentre of an 18th-century earthquake that was one of the most powerful in the UK. IGas had not consulted with locals on its plans for the sites at the time of its announcement. Concern led to the setting up of the Bridge Trafford Community Protection Camp page. [1][2]
