International Unconventional Gas Opportunities

International Unconventional Gas OpportunitiesThis presentation will identify both existing and potential unconventional-gas plays abroad. Further discussion will focus on resource sizes and technologies required to develop the varying types of international unconventional-gas plays efficiently.

Introduction by Bill Pike, Editor-in-Chief, E&P Magazine

  • During 2007, unconventional reservoirs generated 40% of productive U.S. gas capacity and are projected to contribute two-thirds of productive capacity by 2018. And, this can be replicated abroad, says Dr. Philip Stark, vice president, industry relations, IHS Inc.
  • International, conventional gas supplies are abundant, but production is slipping, he adds. In some developed countries, there are concerns about security of supplies and some developing countries are seeking new supplies.
  • International unconventional gas resources are thought to be huge. Although solid estimates are lacking. "These are not well measured, but the implication is there is a substantial global unconventional resource," he says.
