Shale Gas - A Global Perspective

The publication Shale Gas - A Global Perspective examines the state of shale gas development in selected countries and offers our views on the prospects of shale gas as part of the world's energy mix and whether this source of energy is a game-changer as some have claimed.

The summary highlights five key risks that could affect the future viability of shale gas production: price uncertainty; investment considerations in renewable energy sources; managing costs and financing risks; ability to control reputational risk; and,geopolitical factors.
