The Unconventional Oil and Gas Market Outlook: The Future of Oil Sands, Shale Gas, Oil Shale and Coalbed Methane

26 Jul 2010 • by Natalie Aster

Sustained high oil and gas prices until mid-2008 led to the development of these resources as governments across the world were concerned about dwindling energy supplies amid rising demand. Technological advancements further aided their development. Volatility in commodity prices adds to the uncertainty in unconventional development. Rise in environmental concerns over extraction and development of unconventional resources may likely slow down the growth of the industry.

A new market report “The Unconventional Oil and Gas Market Outlook: The Future of Oil Sands, Shale Gas, Oil Shale and Coalbed Methane” by Business Insights analyzes the growth of the unconventional oil and gas resources worldwide, discusses the drivers and resistors of the industry, and includes production forecasts for key regions. It also documents statistical data on reserves, production including projections until 2030 for primary markets.

Use the report to:

• Achieve a quick and comprehensive understanding of the global unconventional oil and gas industry.
• Assess the emerging trends in each of the unconventional resources – oil sands, shale gas, oil shale, and CBM.
• Quantify reserves and production in key markets such as the US, Canada, Australia, and China.
• Understand the major issues surrounding the development of unconventional resources in important regions of the world.
• Predict and identify growth potential by resource globally.

…And answer questions like…

• What are the primary unconventional oil and gas resources in the world today at present?
• What are the technologies used in exploring and developing unconventional resources such as oil sands and shale gas?
• What are the key drivers of unconventional in general and key drivers in specific regions?
