Natural gas makes up close to 30% of national energy consumption. Of the total gas imported in 2010, (17% of the country's annual consumption) 98% of imports came from Russia. The recent US Energy Information Administration study has reported that there could be enough domestic shale gas to meet the country's needs for 100 years. [96]

Due to constant announcements of shale gas recoverable reserves, as well as drilling in Central Asia, South America, Africa, and deepwater drilling, estimates are updated frequently. Since 2000, some countries, notably the US and Canada, have seen large increases in proven gas reserves due to development of shale gas , but shale gas deposits in ...
For instance, North America has over 3 trillion barrels of shale oil reserves, [citation needed] and the majority of oil produced in the US is from shale, leading to the paradoxical data below that the US will finish all its oil at 2024 production levels in 10 years.)
In 2016, largely in response to dramatically falling oil prices due to U.S. shale oil output, OPEC signed an agreement with 10 other oil-producing countries to create OPEC+. Josh Boak contributed ...
