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

Shale gas: Pro and Cons for UK Abstract Introduction Shale gas is natural gas that is found in shale formations. It is becoming increasingly important as major nations are beginning to become involved in this revolution. The gas is rich in petroleum and natural gas. Unlike conventional natural gas‚ which is in permeable rocks like sandstone‚ gas cannot flow through the shale. Therefore‚ just drilling a well isn’t enough to extract this gas. As a result of this‚ fracking or hydraulic fracturing
