Study Finds Vast Tight Oil Resource Economic at $40-$60/bbl

摘要

A new study suggests that a large portion of the US and Canadian tight oil resource is economic to drill at relatively low prices—even within the $40-$60/bbl range. ICF International Inc., a leading consultancy that has long been among the US Department of Energy's most prolific contributors on oil and gas issues, recently produced a white paper that gleaned these insights from ICF's assessment of the technically and economically recoverable tight oil resource base of the US and Canada.
