●Is "shale gas" here to stay?<br />

■ We know where it is…<br />

■ We know how to get it (more/less…)<br />

■ We know how to produce it (sort <strong>of</strong>…)<br />

■ It all boils down to: Price/Timing/Technology<br />

●What could be "disruptive"<br />

■ Being able to deliver significantly more stimulation energy.<br />

■ "Green energy" initiatives (unlikely in the short term).<br />

■ Supply pressure on oil (this is more likely than we think).<br />

■ Environmental constraints (e.g., limiters to drilling/stimulation).<br />
