The realization that unconventional hydrocarbons, such as gas and oil shale, oil sands, and heavy oil, can now be exploited more effectively and economically has stimulated exploration and exploitation on a global scale. This has led to a new economic and environmental landscape in energy matters that we are only now starting to understand.
Unconventional Hydrocarbons
August 2014, Vol. 10, No. 4
The realization that unconventional hydrocarbons, such as gas and oil shale, oil sands, and heavy oil, can now be exploited more effectively and economically has stimulated exploration and exploitation on a global scale. This has led to a new economic and environmental landscape in energy matters that we are only now starting to understand. Exploiting unconventional hydrocarbons requires additional technology, energy, and capital compared to the industry standard. This thematic issue addresses the geologic and geochemical nature of these resources and their impact on global socioeconomics and the environment.
