Deep Shale Oil and Gas presents the latest advancement in drilling and reservoir stimulation methods that have dramatically changed the landscape of production from shale. However, there is still much confusion on the developmental differences between conventional and unconventional reservoirs, as well as the differences among the various shale plays. This book answers this need, providing answers to the challenges of shale production, hydraulic fracturing, and the properties on deeper shale activity. Rounding out with coverage on water usage in shale, a constantly evolving aspect of the operation, and its environmental impacts, especially regarding flowback of chemicals specific to these operations, this book delivers an information reference for today's petroleum and natural gas engineer in the industry. Clarifies all the basic information needed to quickly understand today's deeper shale oil and gas industry, horizontal drilling, fracture fluids and chemicals needed, and completionsAddresses critical coverage on water treatment in shale, and important and evolving technology Practical handbook with real-world case shale plays discussed, especially the up-and-coming deeper areas of shale development INDICE: Chapter 1: Occurrence and Reserves Chapter 2: Geology, Development, and Production Chapter 3: Hydraulic Fracturing Chapter 4: Properties Chapter 5: Water Requirements Chapter 6: Environmental Impacts
