Europe Shale Gas Market Prospects- Ten European Countries Open Up Their Shale Markets for Investments in Exploration
The new Europe shale gas report from OGANALYSIS noted that most oil and gas companies, investors and equipment & service providers are aiming to tap the boom in Europe shale gas. The report analyzes the current status, potential and feasibility of shale development, ongoing activities, government stance and companies operating in each of the 13 shale markets. The report also provides complete analysis on reserve potential, key basins and shale plays information with details of physical characteristics, reservoir properties and resource characteristics. Feasibility of shale development coupled with details of concessions awarded, drilling success rates and operations, strategies of over 34 companies is provided. Basin wise operations are provided for all companies operating in each shale market including Royal Dutch Shell Plc, BNK Petroleum, Chevron Corporation, Exxon Mobil, ENI SpA, Total SA, 3Legs Resources, Cuadrilla Resources, Realm Energy and San Leon Energy among others are actively perusing shale gas exploitation opportunities in Europe.
Driven by the success of the US shale and amidst energy security plans, ten key markets have opened up their shale plays for investment. While Poland has already awarded 111 concessions, the UK has uplifted the ban on hydraulic fracturing. Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Spain and Ukraine have awarded concessions and Turkey expects its first shale gas production in 2013. On the other hand, Netherlands is still conducting studies on environmental impact, Lithuania is yet to announce the bid winner and Belgium is also yet to announce its stance on shale gas. Further, France and Norway are unlikely to explore their shale reserves in the near to medium term future.
The report identifies the top ten trends in Europe shale market and compares the shale plays with the US shale play characteristics. Key drivers and challenges faced by countries along with feasibility of first commercial production are also discussed in detail. Further, the Europe shale gas report from OGANALYSIS discusses physical characteristics of major basins in each country along with their reservoir properties and resource characteristics. Further, shale formations and key plays in each basin are discussed in detail. Basin wise company information along with the current status of activities in permits awarded is analyzed. In addition, company wise shale activities are provided for leading ten companies. Recent shale gas developments along with their impact on companies/ markets/ alternative fuels are also provided.
