Global Shale Basin Map
Hart Energy's Global Shale Basin Map illustrates how the North American shale revolution is spreading around the world. More than 135 companies have leases to develop more than 175 shale basins outside of North America. Significant activity is taking place in China, Argentina, Poland, Australia, and the United Kingdom; all these countries should see commercially viable unconventional hydrocarbon production from their shale basins by 2015. Several other countries will have commercially viable plays developed by 2020.
