Executive Summary
• Shale gas is an unconventional natural gas (NG). Technological advancements, especially in hydraulic fracturing, make shale gas extraction a commercially viable. As demonstrated by the United States (US), countries with technically recoverable reserves are now considering the increase of their gas allocations in energy matrices due to the nascent accessibility of this feedstock.
• In general, the hydraulic fracturing technology has high stakes; associated costs, risks, and benefits need to be properly analyzed in a framework that can enable elected officials and policy makers to make educated decisions that balance the needs of a nation’s
economy and the environment.
• Due to the nascent stage of the technology, especially in European countries, there is a lack of empirical evidence to support many of the assumptions surrounding shale gas; this uncertainty, coupled with environmental concerns, has created serious debate by various stakeholders and governments.
• Key challenges are related to pricing regulations, cost and profitability, environmental and health concerns, and the management of water resources.
• Key drivers are energy security and economic benefits (should shale gas be developed in an environmentally responsible manner).
• The development of shale gas reserves in Europe could reverse the dwindling natural gas reserves, reduce dependence on imports, and restore the region’s status as an exporter.

Executive Summary—CEO’s Perspective
2 Shale gas is being acclaimed as a game changer in energy markets, such as North America, that have recoverable reserves.
3 An increase in natural gas production is expected to make it the preferred feedstock for chemicals and materials in the future.
4 The largest challenge to shale gas and oilfield chemicals is environmental sustainability.
1 The shale gas industry offers emerging growth opportunity, but it is initially abundant in supply and low in demand.
