How much shale gas is in the US?
This is a tricky question because as drilling technologies improve, so does the amount of technically recoverable resources. In its biennial report in 2019, the Potential Gas Committee said recoverable U.S. gas from “traditional” resources, which include shale, conventional, tight sand and carbonate, jumped from 2016 by 21% to 3,218 Tcf.
