Shale oil is a type of unconventional oilfound in shale formations that must be hydraulically fractured to extract the oil. Primary uses include heating oil, marine fuel, and the production of various chemicals. Shale oil can, in fact, refer to two types of oil: crude oil that is found within shale formations or oil that is extracted fr…
Argentina's shale oil production is climbing fast "Vaca Muerta can provide 2 million barrels per day without any problem," Sureda added. Argentina's shale oil production currently is around ...
Comparing shale oil to coal is a little forced, however, in the context of both fuels' evolution. Coal was the first industrialization fuel that reigned supreme for decades before the discovery ...
Bakken Shale well counts grouped by year of first production show about 19% of the population are parent wells developed from 2010 to 2014. Another 25% of the wells are tagged as child wells, which led researchers to conclude that as of March 2022, a total of 44% of Bakken wells have been influenced by parent–child interactions.
The U.S. shale revolution is over and large gains in production from now on are unlikely. The verdict comes from the chief executive of Quantum Energy Partners, Wil VanLoh, who suggested that ...

In December 2018, U.S. shale and tight plays produced about 65 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) of natural gas (70% of total U.S. dry gas production) and about 7 million barrels per day (b/d) of crude oil (60% of total U.S. oil production).
Under the Biden administration, higher oil prices have benefited exploration and production (E&P) companies, but oilfield services revenue has struggled, especially in 2024.
Despite rising costs, future oil supply is expected to increase, driven by production from OPEC countries and shale projects, with a projected equilibrium oil price of $55 per barrel in 2030.
The U.S. shale boom of the past 15 years transformed the nation into the world's largest oil and gas producer and a major exporter, insulating the economy from the influence of OPEC and Russia ...
Oil production cost is about half that of primary production, and in some shale reservoirs 500% more oil can be recovered. Shale Ingenuity LLC Shale Ingenuity LLC was selected by Darcy Partners as a 2023 Top 10 Innovator Company in the category of Subsurface.
Includes crude oil, shale oil, oil sands, condensates (lease condensate or gas condensates that require further refining) and NGLs (natural gas liquids - ethane, LPG and naphtha separated from the production of natural gas). Excludes liquid fuels from other sources such as biofuels and synthetic derivatives of coal and natural gas.
U.S. shale oil production is poised for a significant boost, with BloombergNEF (BNEF) forecasting a 4.5% increase in output to 13.9 million barrels per day by 2025
Recent data from the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) confirms an emerging Ohio oil play with untapped potential. Traditionally thought of as a natural gas play, new technologies have unlocked oil production in the Utica Shale that continues to grow: 70 percent since 2021 with 40 percent annual growth from 2022 to 2023.
US Crude Oil: Production was reported at 12,927.088 Barrel/Day th in Dec 2023. This records an increase from the previous number of 11,910.573 Barrel/Day th for Dec 2022.
The USGS Energy Resources Program has studied oil shale resources of the United States, with a significant effort on the Eocene Green River Formation of Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming. This formation contains the largest oil shale deposits in the world. Oil shale, despite the name, does not actually contain oil, but is a precursor of oil that is converted to …
Shale oil production went from zero to 10 m b/d, more significant than Saudi Arabia. The shales could not have come at a better time. In 2003, China joined the World Trade Organization, and its crude demand growth markedly accelerated. In 2005, non-OPEC production growth began to falter, forcing crude markets into a structural deficit.
Making an economic assessment for shale production Understand the economic fundamentals and key business indicators for shale production in Argentina.; Shale gas and tight oil exploration geology and geophysics Scope out new opportunities for shale production over the Vaca Muerta area, as well as the Golfo San Jorge, Paraná-Chaco, and the Austral-Magallanes …
It is a reminder that there's a lot of oil production left in what is still the biggest shale oil play after the Permian, but don't look for a repeat of last year's growth rate which pushed the Bakken's total production to 1.3 million …
Soaring shale oil output helped soothe volatile crude markets — even as the Arab Spring brought turmoil to Middle Eastern producers and fresh conflict erupted in northern Iraq and the Arabian...
Should the shale oil industry increase production in response to the relative strength of oil prices, the impact would be felt in oil prices in upcoming quarters. Article Sources.
Rising efficiency gains in U.S. shale oil Booming U.S. shale oil production played a significant role in the oil price plunge from mid-2014 to early 2016. Efficiency gains in the sector lowered break-even prices considerably, …
Each record has the following fields: production year, county, township, API well number, owner name, well name, well number, oil (1 barrel = 42 US gallons), gas (1 MCF = 1,000 cubic feet of gas), brine (1 barrel = 42 US gallons), days in production, …

1. Introduction. The oil shale is a solid mineral resource containing organic matter called kerogen, which can be converted into oil and gas under high-temperature heating [[1], [2], [3]]pared with conventional oil and gas resources, the reserve of oil shale is much higher and the oil converting from oil shale in the world can be up to 400 billion of tons [[4], [5], [6]].
