Shale revolution, which was started with the success of Barnet shale development, has drastically boosted the gas production of United State. IEA Annual Energy Outlook of 2013 forecasts that the gas production of US in 2030 will increase by half of that in 2000. It also predicts 35% of oil production of US in 2015 will be brought on by shale oil or tight oil. This revolution was evolved from breakthrough technologies such as horizontal well drilling, multi-stage hydraulic fracturing and microseismic monitoring. An aggressive strategy and an optimal design of the fracturing are keys for successful commercial developments. In the meantime, it has raised public concerns about risks of water pollution and triggered seismicity. Further development of shale resources require further technical challenges including drilling cost saving, optimal design of hydraulic fracturing and environmental risk mitigation.
