Location of U.S Shale Gas Plays U.S. Energy Information Agency, March 2010

Oil Shale Gas Hydrates Tight Gas Sands; CBM; Gas Shales Tight Oil; Heavy Oil; Bituminous Sands Oil Gas Conventional Reservoirs: Small Volumes, Easy to Develop Unconventional Reservoirs: Large Volumes, Hard to Develop Huge Volumes, Difficult to Develop Increasing Product Price Improving Technology Province Resource Size The Resource Pyramid (S. Sonnenberg, CSM)

Shale Gas Annual Production and Energy Information Administration (EIA) Forecast EnCana

Targeted Research – $150 Million

Acquisitions – >$50 Billion Source: Trollart.com – Ray Troll

Resource Development – >$15 Billion Source:devonenergy.com Source:AAPG Source:chiefoiland gas.com

Hydrocarbons From Shale – Never Say Die

Shale Gas Reservoir Mechanisms U.S. DOE

Exploration Considerations Natural fractures - Friend or Foe? Facies changes - greater permeability Kerogen type - I,II,IIS,III Microbial or thermogenic gas? Thermal maturation history MWD - especially w/ gas isotopes

Some Elements of a Successful Shale Gas Play Productivity Gas-In-Place Thickness Organic Richness Organic Richness Maturation Brittleness Mineralogy Permeability Pore Pressure Pore Pressure
