rigorous. RESOURCE ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY. The methodology for conducting the basin- and formation-level assessments of shale gas and shale oil 2 Jun 2013 This report provides an initial assessment of shale oil resources and methodology is outlined below and described in more detail in the The resource assessment of shale gas and shale oil is performed within Task and four (estimations of GIIP and OIIP) of the assessment method (Report T2b). Shale gas and Shale oil resources and assessment status . reasons for these discrepancies is the use of different volumetric method and as a result the net
The USGS assesses potential for undiscovered oil and gas resources in and unconventional (continuous) oil and gas resources (such as shale gas) for more
The “World Shale Gas and Shale Oil Resource Assessment”, conducted by Advanced Resources International, Inc. (ARI) for the U.S. DOE’s Energy Information Administration (EIA), evaluates the shale gas and shale oil resource in 26 regions, containing 41 individual countries, Figure 1. Technically Recoverable Shale Oil and . Shale Gas Resources: An Assessment of 137 Shale Formations in 41 This report provides an initial assessment of shale oil resources and updates a prior assessment of shale gas resources issued in April 2011. methodology is outlined below and described in more detail in the accompanying contractor Year Published: 2019 Assessment of continuous oil and gas resources in Jurassic Posidonia Shales of Greece and Albania, 2019. Using a geology-based assessment methodology, the U.S. Geological Survey estimated undiscovered, technically recoverable mean resources of 118 million barrels of continuous oil and 170 billion cubic feet of continuous gas in the Jurassic Posidonia Shale Total Petroleum In total, the report assessed 48 shale gas basins in 32 countries, containing almost 70 shale gas formations. These assessments cover the most prospective shale gas resources in a select group of countries that demonstrate some level of relatively near-term promise and for basins that have a sufficient amount of geologic data for resource analysis. Shale Oil and Gas Investing Information. The easiest way to invest in the shale oil and natural gas industry is to buy publicly traded stocks in companies that are producing these resources. Investors should look for companies that have produced shale oil or gas in the past and have announced plans to continue to do it in the future.

The first is the volume method by which geochemical and other data are used to calculate the prospectivity of a shale gas resource from first principles. The second is the analogue method where the shale oil and gas assessment is performed by comparison of the studied resource to well-known economic shale gas fields. Using a geology-based assessment methodology, the U.S. Geological Survey estimated undiscovered, technically recoverable mean resources of 144 million barrels of shale oil and 559 billion cubic feet of shale gas in the Mississippian Delle Phosphatic Member of the Woodman Formation in the Eastern Great Basin Province of Nevada, Utah, and Idaho.

Fracking is a proven drilling technology used for extracting oil, natural gas, at high pressure to create small fractures within tight shale formations to stimulate the By safely unlocking America's abundant natural resources, fracking has have been plagued by questionable methodologies and contradictory results.
Using a geology-based assessment methodology, the U.S. Geological Survey estimated undiscovered, technically recoverable mean resources of 1.4 billion barrels of shale oil and 26.9 trillion cubic feet of shale gas in Paleozoic formations in the Tarim Basin of China. “Shale gas and Snake oil – Geological characteristics of continuous petroleum resources and resource abundance evaluation assessment methodology for shale gas/oil in some European countries” University: Aalborg University, Esbjerg University of Technology - Niels Bohrs Vej 8, 6700 Esbjerg, Denmark (www.en.aau.dk) Project Period: Introduction. Using a geology-based assessment methodology, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) estimated a mean undiscovered natural gas resource of 84,198 billion cubic feet and a mean undiscovered natural gas liquids resource of 3,379 million barrels in the Devonian Marcellus Shale within the Appalachian Basin Province. Shale reservoirs need to be produced through horizontal drilling the hydraulic fracturing. Therefore, the exploration and development of unconventional oil and gas resources, represented by shale oil and gas, have not only broadened the field of oil and gas exploration, but also promoted the development of new petroleum geology concept and
3. Estimate risked shale gas and shale oil resource in-place. 4. Calculate risked, technically recoverable shale gas and shale oil resource (TRR). Our shale gas and shale oil resource assessment methodology consisted of four main steps: • Minimum TOC ( >2%) • Prospective Depth Range (1,000 m to 5,000 m) • Thermal Maturity “Windows”
