Abstract
Natural gas production from shale gas reservoirs is now proven to be feasible from numerous operations in various shale gas reservoirs in North America, but challenges remain in the processing of the gas. The amenability of the gas to be included in current gas-processing scenarios is an important issue. On the understanding that shale gas reservoirs will vary in properties such as origin, permeability, and porosity, differences in properties of the shale gas must be anticipated. Moreover, maximization or optimization of reservoir producibility can only be achieved by a thorough understanding of the occurrence and properties of the shale gas resources as well as the producibility of the gas from the reservoir. These needs demonstrate the importance of a thorough characterization of shale gas reservoir as well as an understanding of the means by which subterranean formations deform during geologic time as well as the effects of such deformation on the stresses within the formations.
