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

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. Natural gas is a critical element to many

research is done to bring together data found by other parties concerning the Womble Shale Formation. The Womble Shale Formation is located in Arkansas‚ the Ouachita Mountains‚ and Southern Oklahoma; it was named however for its outcrop seen in Norman‚ Arkansas (Used to be known as Womble‚ Arkansas). The age of the Womble Shale Formation has been correlated to Middle Ordovician in age due to fossils found within its shale and limestone layers. The two fossils found in these layers were the graptolites
