U.S. use of shale gas technology "economic weapon"

As to whether the United States to other countries (first of the EU) to transfer its real shale gas development and utilization of the core technology, some experts believe that this is not only a technical and ecological problems, but involve countries geopolitical big problem.Fracturing proppant Facts show that shale gas if you can get in the hands of a fuel and energy, need to rely on the country's "soft power." That is, people say, whether the United States is willing to consider them the "right" areas, to expand their influence and implement its core technology.

I believe that America was valued Poland, the purpose is for the world's gas production big country Russia.ceramic ball Because Russia on missile defense system in Europe constraints and energy supply plays an important role, while in Poland near the Russian. Hold Poland, the United States in Europe will have to deal with Russia's position. Not long ago, Polish Foreign Minister Sharansky on Colorado Tesla fusidic Cole said: "The United States is our most important partners outside Europe and we are delighted that U.S. companies in the study Polish shale gas ......"

"So far, 'shale miracle' is still just Americans." Because in addition to the U.S. shale gas production in 2011 reached 180 billion cubic meters and its North American neighbors - Canada's annual output of about 4 billion cubic meters of shale gas outside rest of the world commercial exploitation of shale gas are not yet a breakthrough.

Therefore, the impact of shale gas development and utilization in addition to political factors, technically we can get some enlightenment as follows:

Shale gas exploration and development is the most important issue: the need to do a thorough, detailed geological research, and on this basis, according to the relevant regional geological features, local conditions, made in accordance with local geological conditions of shale gas exploration and development programs and innovative technologies.

Good job related to shale gas projects upfront investment risk analysis, technical and economic feasibility study,frac sand as well as with conventional gas development and the introduction of effective, comprehensive comparative analysis. Each project must fully take into account the specific ecological, economic and social impact, the international market price of natural gas and the possible negative effects of other factors.

Develop appropriate strategic planning shale gas exploration and development, should be forward-looking, predictability, feasibility. Government should strengthen co-ordination and supervision, to prevent over-investment, to avoid "rush" on the project.

Strengthen the world shale gas exploration and development related to national economic and technological exchanges,unconventional gas in-depth study of international experience.
