Oil Shale Development in the United States

Book Description
In the early 1980s, industry and government took a hard look at the economics of extracting oil from vast deposits of shale that lie beneath the western United States. Oil prices subsided, and interest waned. With oil prices spiking and global demand showing no signs of abating, reexamining the economics of oil shale makes sense. In this report, the authors describe oil shale resources; suitability, cost, and performance of new technologies; and key policy issues that need to be addressed by government decisionmakers in the near future.

Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
As the rate of energy use far outstrips the estimate of what resources may be available, other fuels are needed to supplement dwindling supplies of oil and gas. Three such alternatives are coal, oil shale, and uranium, all of which exist in potential abundance in Colorado. However, large-scale production of these resources will result in complex interactions with the state's social and physical environment, and the technologies and issues involved must be fully identified and understood before full-scale development takes place. This book provides current information on coal, oil shale, and uranium resources in the state, as well as on the potential impact of the technology associated with their development. Initially prepared as three separate volumes intended to inform policymakers in the legislative and executive branches of state government, this single volume has been expanded and brought up to date for a broader audience.
