Global Market for Gas Shales, Oil Sands, and Oil Shales Forecast, Trends & Opportunities 2015



The market for unconventional fuels is growing at a rapid pace. Some of the most common unconventional source of fuel includes gas shales, oil sands, and oil shales.

TaiyouReports.com presents an analysis of all these three fuel sources together in its report Global Market for Gas Shales, Oil Sands, and Oil Sands.

Shale gas is actually just natural gas produced from shale. Shale gas has become an important source of natural gas in the last couple of years across the world, as the potential of shale gas is huge. The United States, Canada, Europe, and even across Asia and Australia, governments and companies are exploiting the potential of shale gas and it is expected that in the coming years, shale gas is going to expand the overall energy supply in the world.

Oil sands, commonly known as tar sands or bituminous sands, are being hailed as a type of unconventional deposit of petroleum. The oil sands are made up of a mixture of clay, sand, water, and a viscous form of petroleum, commonly known as bitumen. Canada and Venezuela are the biggest markets for oil sands in the world.

Meanwhile, oil shale contains a large amount of kerogen, which is a solid mixture of organic chemical compounds, and is used to extract liquid hydrocarbons from. Since kerogen needs to be processed more than crude oil, the cost of oil shales is higher as well as its environmental impact.

TaiyouReports.com’s report covers the global market for gas shales, oil sands and oil shales in three sections, each covering a particular market.

Beginning with the analysis of gas shales, the report offers the following:

• An introduction to gas shales and technical knowledge about shale gas including extraction processes, economics of shale gas, source of natural gas in shale, fluid management techniques, and much more.

• Analysis of the gas shale industry in the US, with a focus on production statistics and reserves of shale gas.

• Importance of shale gas in the US is analyzed along with the major shale gas producing regions.

• Regulatory framework is an important factor in determining the growth of the US gas shale industry in the future and this is looked at in the report.

• Impacts of shale gas on the LNG industry is analyzed through the changing perception in the US market, impact of market shortage, cost structure, and cost impacts.

• The manner in which gas shales are changing the global energy industry is analyzed along with the major challenges facing the gas shale market worldwide.

• Major players active in the industry such as Anadarko Petroleum, Apache Corporation, Chesapeake Energy, and many others are analyzed through a SWOT analysis, business segment analysis, financial analysis, etc.

Moving on to section 2, we analyze oil sands, and the section covers the following:

• Overview of oil sands is provided along with the technology used for the extraction process. Energy requirements for the extraction process of oil sands is also looked at.

• Environmental challenges associated with oil sands such as air pollution, mining of land, GHG emissions, and others are analyzed.

• The oil sands industry in Canada is analyzed through market statistics, bitumen resources, opportunities and challenges facing the market, regulatory framework, and the environmental impact.

• The analysis of Athabasca oil sands includes market statistics, bitumen resources, outlook for production, environmental barriers, and role of Athabasca oil sands in international trade talks.

• Utah oils sands, the Orinico oil sands, and oil sands playing a role in global energy security conclude this section.

• Major players in the industry such as Imperial Oil, Canadian Natural Resources Limited, Sinopec, etc., are analyzed through SWOT, business segments, and financials.

Section 3 covers the oil shale industry worldwide.

• This section covers the basics of oil shales and the technology used for extraction, along with the various applications of oil shales. The environmental impact of oil shales is also studied.

• The global market for oil shales is analyzed and we look at oil shale reserves, region-wise analysis of the oil shale market worldwide, and the industrial uses of oil shales.

• Cost analysis of oil shales is carried out in comparison with oil prices.

• Major players in the industry such as Eesti Energia AS, Petrobras, Ambre Energy, and others are analyzed through a SWOT analysis, business segment analysis and financial analysis.

Overall, TaiyouReports.com presents a one of a kind analysis of these unconventional sources of fuel in its research offering Global Market for Gas Shales, Oil Sands, and Oil Shales.
