Shale Gas Market Research Report Released by NRG Expert

Max Krangle, Managing Director of NRG Expert, the energy market research company, is pleased to announce the release of the Shale Gas Market Research Report. In response to the recent US boom in the Shale Gas market, there is heightened interest in this subject.

By 2035, analysts are predicting that Shale Gas could account for 45% of US domestic production. It is currently only responsible for 20%. Fast growth in the US shale gas market place is therefore expected. To help companies and governments make informed business decisions, NRG Expert’s Shale Gas Market Research Report provides a comprehensive overview and analysis of the fast growing global shale gas market. It looks at the most important shale gas companies and shale gas data as well as providing forecasts for the future.

The energy analysts at NRG Expert have spent many months researching the global market place to provide much needed information, data and statistics on shale gas reserves, companies and shale gas technologies. This useful report is now available at www.nrgexpert.com

Shale Gas Report – Key Findings:

Shale gas is a “game changer

NRG Expert’s Shale Gas Market Research Report reveals that shale gas has been a ‘game changer’ in the US. Changing the country from being reliant on imports for the foreseeable future to being able to meet demand for domestic production, from shale gas. A large reduction in the cost of producing natural gas from shale gas, has now made shale gas economically viable.

Low shale gas prices and high oil prices

While a meteoric rise in US shale gas production is forecast, there are some factors which may slow this rise. Low shale gas prices have made gas projects less attractive for investors. Although simultaneously high oil prices in the automobile industry are forcing companies to look for more economic alternatives such as compressed natural gas vehicles. So while shale gas prices are low, demand is rising.

Shale gas environment impact

There is concern over the environmental impact of fracturing water and the amount of water used in the fracturing process. New environmental legislation on hydraulic fracturing, if passed, could drive the costs of hydraulic fracturing higher, possibly leaving only the big players in the shale game.

On the plus side, natural gas produces less carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions on burning than coal. This could have positive impacts on the global shale gas market. Switching from coal to natural gas (at power stations) is one option for country’s to meet Kyoto targets for cutting CO2 emissions

NRG Expert’s shale gas analysis however, has revealed that despite the challenges, interest in shale gas has not waned. Investors from Saudi Arabia are now looking at the US in order to capitalise on the Shale Gas boom, with exports expected to exceed imports by 2016.
