Change-in-Practice Foundation Executive Summary: Barnett Shale activity has vastly declined since its peak in 2008. “The decline in Barnett Shale drilling can be attributed to several factors. The industry has rushed to shift resources to areas that produce crude oil‚ like the Bakken Shale in North Dakota and the Eagle Ford Shale in South Texas‚ which sells for higher prices than gas. And other shale gas fields like the booming Marcellus Shale have surpassed the Barnett in daily production‚ further

Shale Gas(셰일 가스) Shale is one of the most common sedimentary rocks in the world and it is primarily composed of clay and fragments of other minerals such as quartz and calcite. Shale can be the source‚ reservoir and the seal for natural gas. Shale formations normally have low permeability (limited ability for gas or fluids to flow easily through the shale formation) and normally require stimulation techniques (such as fracturing) to economically produce shale gas. Shale gas is natural gas that

the drilling for natural gas in the Marcellus Shale. Tioga County was one of the first counties in Pennsylvania to experience Marcellus Shale drilling activity. It ranks second by number of Marcellus wells in PA‚ with a total of 388 drilling wells between 2008 and 2010 (including 266 in 2010) (DEP). Once disgusted by the inherent wrongs of drilling on bountiful land‚ I have become open to the potential benefits that natural gas provides through shale‚ domestically and internationally.
