Shale gas production by geologic formation. Percent of total U.S. gas production from shale, 2000–2013 (US EIA) Shale gas production has grown rapidly in recent years, and is projected by the Energy Information Administration to increase further. Comparison of natural gas prices in Japan, United Kingdom, and United States, 2007–2011
In 1996, shale gas wells in the United States produced 0.3 × 10 ^ 12 cu ft (8.5 km 3), 1.6% of US gas production; by 2006, production had more than tripled to 1.1 × 10 ^ 12 cu ft (31 km 3) per year, 5.9% of US gas production. By 2005, there were 14,990 shale gas wells in the US. [20]
In 2000 shale gas provided only 1% of U.S. natural gas production; by 2010 it was over 20% and the U.S. Energy Information Administration predicted that by 2035, 46% of the United States' natural gas supply will come from shale gas.
Gas production from the Marcellus Shale. The industry was long aware there was gas in the Marcellus, but it "occurred in pockets and flows that could not be sustained to make a well." [14] Before 2000, some low production gas wells were completed to the Marcellus, but these had a low rate of return and a relatively long capital recovery period ...
Natural gas production 1973-2022 U.S. natural gas monthly production, imports, and exports Discovered shale gas deposits as of June 2016 Natural gas production by State. Natural gas was the United States' largest source of energy production in 2016, representing 33 percent of all energy produced in the country. [1]
Ukraine signed a 50-year production sharing agreement with Royal Dutch Shell on 25 January 2013 involving the Yuzivska shale gas field. [9] [31] The $10 billion deal was the largest foreign direct investment ever for Ukraine. [31] Full shale gas production was expected to depend on successful results from 15 test wells. [31]
In 1992, he founded Pinnacle Technologies, which helped launch commercial shale gas production through hydraulic fracturing, or fracking. He later served as chairman of Stroud Energy, an early shale gas producer, before founding Liberty Resources in 2010.
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 ...
