The Marcellus Middle Devonian-age organic-rich formation, also known as Marcellus Shale, extends in the subsurface from New York State in the north to northeastern Kentucky and Tennessee in the south and is the most prolific natural gas-producing formation in the Appalachian basin.
16 godz. temu · This tiny, rural point in southwestern Pennsylvania—120 miles south from the famed Drake well drilled 165 years ago—helped move the shale boom into overdrive. In 10 years, Marcellus production had surged beyond expectations to nearly 14 Bcf/d. Today, the Marcellus produces more than 25 Bcf/d, and the combined Marcellus-Utica sits near 36 ...
The Marcellus natural gas trend is a large geographic area of prolific shale gas extraction from the Marcellus Shale or Marcellus Formation, of Devonian age, in the eastern United States. [2] The shale play encompasses 104,000 square miles and stretches across Pennsylvania and West Virginia, and into eastern Ohio and western New York. [3]
1 lis 2018 · Increased attention to impacts and risks from Marcellus Shale oil and gas extraction has led to a broad range of civic engagement, including the rise of “citizen science” programs that focus on the collection of data by non-experts.
The Middle Devonian Marcellus shale play has emerged as a major world-class hydrocarbon accumulation. It has rapidly evolved into a major shale gas target in North America and represents one of the largest and most prolific shale plays in the world with a prospective area of approximately 114,000 km 2 (44,000 mi 2).
The objective of the Marcellus Shale Energy and Environment Laboratory (MSEEL) is to provide a long-term field site to develop and validate new knowledge and technology to improve recovery efficiency and minimize environmental implications of unconventional resource development.
2 cze 2010 · This article is focused on the Marcellus Shale because it is the most expansive shale gas in play in the U.S. The Marcellus Shale, which is Devonian age (416−359.2 My), belongs to a group of black, organic-rich shales that are common constituents of sedimentary deposits.
