Conditions of Shale Gas Accumulation and Exploration Practices in China

Abstract:

Because the United States has achieved significant success on shale gas exploration and development, which makes a number of countries in North America, Europe to begin to make a series of exploration work [1]. China also launched China's first shale gas resource exploration project in Qijiang County, Chongqing in October 2009. According to the Shale Gas “Twelfth Five-year” Development Plan, the shale gas production will reach 60 - 100 billion cubic meters in 2020. This paper will make a brief review on shale gas formation conditions and the exploration and development projects already have been undertaken, hoping to provide some supports for the development of China's unconventional energy.
