  • Shale Rush boosts Employment and Local Industry
    According to Pittsburgh-based energy company EQT, Shale and natural gas investments can create over 167,000 jobs by 2020 in Pennsylvania and produce over $13 billion for the region.
  • A Primer On New York's Gas Shales: New York State Energy Research and Development Authority
    Though New York's first shale well was drilled in 1821, shale has not been a major contributor to natural gas production in the state. Recent price increases and the development of more efficient drilling and completion technology now make these rocks attractive for exploration. The resource in New York is significant: Previous estimates of the state's shale gas resource range from 163 to 313 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) out of just the Devonian section.
  • Water-related Issues Associated with Gas Production in the Marcellus Shale
    This report addresses the following topics related to Marcellus Shale operations:
    a. Fracturing fluid additives
    b. Flowback fluids
    c. Sufficiency of regulations and guidelines
    d. On-site flowback fluids treatment or recycling technologies
    e. Potential ‘green’ (environmentally-friendly) hydraulic fracturing technologies
    f. Alternate water sources for hydraulic fracturing operations, and
    g. Water well sampling needs
  • US dominates shale gas market
    While the past few years have seen the concept of shale gas become a global concern, the one country which continues to dominate most discussions on the unconventional energy resource is the US. Large amounts of the resource are believed to exist in the organic rich rock formations across a number of states, with some of the energy world's biggest players increasingly drawn to the areas such as the Marcellus Shale...
  • Energy firms set sights on Marcellus shale gas
    Away from the hustle and bustle of the traditional energy sector, shale gas has become one of the so-called 'unconventional' areas to attract much interest from companies in the past five years or so. The growing enthusiasm surrounding the issue is understandable when considering research released by Ziff Energy last year, which suggested that such reserves could be used to supply half of North America's gas needs by 2010
  • Unconventional shale gas the future of energy
    While the last decade was a huge one for the energy sector, hopes are high over what the future may hold. The past ten years have seen a shift in public perception, with both homeowners and businesses looking past traditional resources to consider greener and more sustainable types of utilities...
  • Article: ‘Blanket’ environmental fears won’t slow Shale industry
    Despite the launch of an environmental safety investigation by the U.S. House Energy and Commerce Committee into the impact of the hydraulic fracturing technique, many analysts doubt that the probe will hinder the rapid development of shale drilling.
