Unlocking the Immense Potential of Shale in Asia
The shale gas industry is rapidly growing in recent years, especially in the USA. Major developments are also taking place in Asia. The U.S. Energy Information Agency estimated that China has 36.1 trillion cubic metres of technically recoverable shale gas reserves, significantly higher than U.S. reserves. Although China has not produced any shale gas commercially yet, it has attracted the attention and investments of various international energy companies. As such, CMT’s Shale Gas Summit takes place on 23-24 April 2012 in Beijing. Ministry of Land and Resources, China will talk about their government’s regulations to support shale gas development and China’s progress within the next 5 years.
With shale gas as the game-changer in the US gas markets, many expect to see a similar impact in Europe. However, the shale gas industry is a lot more restrained in Europe due to environmental concerns and bans implemented by various countries such as France and Bulgaria. With 100 over licenses issued to permit companies to develop shale, Poland seemed to be the country of highest potential. Hear from Polish Oil and Gas Company(PGNIG) on the latest shale gas progress and infrastructure plans.
No two shale plays are alike and depending on the geological conditions in that region, the hydraulic fracturing technology is tailored for the extraction. Fracking technologies used for shale plays in US are definitely not suitable for extracting shale gas in Asia, which is why many Asian E&P companies are collaborating with experienced US drilling service providers to seek their expertise and help. The adoption and improvisation of the right drilling and fracking technology for use in Asia will be explained by Baker Hughes.
How are the other shale gas markets in India, Indonesia and Australia progressing and how are the respective government working to promote this gas exploration? How is this shale gas revolution affecting the global LNG market?
