Free Download Gabriel L. Navarro, "Marcellus Shale and Shale Gas:: Facts and Considerations "
English | ISBN: 1614701733 | 2012 | 169 pages | PDF | 5 MB
The Marcellus Shale is a sedimentary rock formation deposited over 350 million years ago in a shallow inland sea located in the eastern United States where the present-day Appalachian Mountains now stand. This shale contains significant quantities of natural gas. New developments in drilling technology, along with higher wellhead prices, have made the Marcellus Shale an important natural gas resource. This book explores water resources and natural gas production from the Marcellus Shale; the impact of Marcellus Shale gas play on current and future Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) activities; and, applying this technology to solve America’s energy challenges.

Free Download Lithofacies Paleogeography and Geological Survey of Shale Gas by Chuanlong Mou , Xiuping Wang , Qiyu Wang , Xiangying Ge , Bowen Zan , Kenken Zhou , Xiaowei Chen , Wei Liang
English | EPUB(True) | 2023 |268 Pages | ISBN : 9811988609 | 187.3 MB
This book presents new theory and methods on compiling lithofacies paleogeographic maps as a key tool for guiding geological survey on shale gas. The fundamental goal of the shale gas geological survey is to find the ‘dessert’ area. It is therefore suggested that the lithofacies paleogeographic study and the technique of mapping should be a solid scientific basis for shale gas exploration. It takes Ordovician Wufeng-Silurian Longmaxi Formation in Sichuan Basin and its adjacent area as an example to illustrate how to find the ‘dessert’ area of shale gas in geological survey phase by compiling lithofacies paleogeographic map. It’s a valuable reference for both scientific research and teaching courses in the fields of sedimentary lithofacies, paleogeography, stratigraphy, and oil and gas.
