The demand for shale gas is constantly increasing as the depleting energy reserves have forced the world to focus on unconventional source of energy. A revolution in this sector started with the production of shale gas.

The success of shale gas in North America has motivated other countries such as China to invest in it. The U.S. dominates the shale gas market in terms of production as well as revenue. However, cost of production and contamination of surface water are expected to hinder the market growth in the near future.

This report focuses on estimates and forecasts of the global shale gas market in terms of volume (Bcf) and revenue (USD billion) from 2013 to 2019. For the purpose of this report, we have considered the supply side and not the demand side, for each region and application segment. The report analyzes value chain components in order to study value addition at each stage. The study discusses major driving and restraining factors for the shale gas market and emerging opportunities in the near future.

The major applications analyzed in this report include industrial, power generation, residential, commercial and transportation. Each application is further analyzed and forecasted on the basis of regional production including the U.S., Europe, Asia Pacific and Rest of the World from 2013 to 2019.
