While past production in the late 1990s and early 2000s was as high as 4,700 barrels per day, as of June 2020, the USEIA reported oil production in Morocco at 160 barrels a day. [6] This same report shows that natural gas reserves are below consumption levels, and thus, Morocco imports much of its natural gas.
Above-ground retorting typically consumes between one and five barrels of water per barrel of produced shale oil, depending on technology. [7] [25] [26] [27] For an oil shale industry producing 2.5 million barrels per day (400 × 10 ^ 3 m 3 /d), this equates to 105,000,000–315,000,000 US gallons per day (400,000–1,190,000 m 3 /d) of water ...
A 2008 estimate set the total world resources of oil shale at 689 gigatones—equivalent to yield of 4.8 trillion barrels (760 billion cubic metres) of shale oil, with the largest reserves in the United States, which is thought to have 3.7 trillion barrels (590 billion cubic metres), though only a part of it is recoverable.

The process has a high energy consumption, for example around 2,500 kWh (9,000 MJ) of electricity per tonne of sodium hydroxide produced. Because the process yields equivalent amounts of chlorine and sodium hydroxide (two moles of sodium hydroxide per mole of chlorine), it is necessary to find a use for these products in the same proportion.
Escalating tensions abroad could push oil prices to roughly $90 per barrel, according to one analyst. Prices weren't too far from those levels on Monday, as Brent hovered above $86 per barrel ...
Oil shale in Morocco represents a significant potential resource. The ten known oil shale deposits in Morocco contain over 53.381 billion barrels (8.4869 × 10 ^ 9 m 3 ) of shale oil . Although Moroccan oil shale has been studied since the 1930s and several pilot plants have extracted shale oil from the local formations, commercial extraction ...
Oil traders, Houston, 2009 Nominal price of oil from 1861 to 2020 from Our World in Data.
