The first oil deposits in India were discovered in 1889 near the town of Digboi in the state of Assam.. The natural gas industry in India began in the 1960s with the discovery of gas fields in Assam and Gujarat. Natural gas gained further significance after the discovery of large reserves in the South Basin fields by ONGC in the 1970s. This is a list of countries by proven oil reserves.Proven reserves are those quantities of petroleum which, by analysis of geological and engineering data, can be estimated, with a high degree of confidence, to be commercially recoverable from a given date forward from known reservoirs and under current economic conditions. Oil Shale reserves in India are Greater than 15 Billion Tons.[iii] North-East India is endowed with rich deposits of coal. The coal is found in the Barail Formation of Tertiary age. Carbonaceous shale occurs interbedded with the coal. The presence of coal and shale has been recorded in wells drilled Past estimates of India’s shale reserves vary widely from ONGC’s 187 trillion cubic feet (TCF) of shale gas in 5 basins to US Energy Information Administration ’s 584 TCF of shale gas and 87 billion barrels of shale oil in 4 basins, and oilfield services provider Schlumberger ’s 300 to 2100 TCF gas. Shale Gas in India Various estimates, including those by leading firms, put Indian reserves of shale oil and gas at large numbers describing Shale oil and gas are more widespread than natural oil and gas. Major regions of availability are Gujarat, Rajasthan, central India, KG Basin and offshore areas in Bay of Bengal. The US has an estimated 1.8 trillion barrels of oil trapped in shale, most of it concentrated in the Green River Formation, which covers northwest Colorado and parts of Utah and Wyoming. This estimate is more than all the proven reserves of crude oil in the world today. Earlier, in a prospectivity analysis of shale oil carried out of the Directorate General of Hydrocarbons of India in the North East states of Arunachal Pradesh and Assam, shale oil reserves are estimated to the tune of 137 billion tones with a recovery factor of 10-20 per cent.

Often referred to as the rock that burns, oil shale boasts a high concentration of or “PEE-awnts” Basin, possibly as a derivation of a Ute Indian word for tall grass. As with all estimates of oil reserves, and especially with those as tricky as oil 29 Aug 2019 However, since shale source-rock often has both natural gas and oil, then it barrels of oil and about 10 TCF of estimated natural gas reserves found. Pakistan and India can still use coal resources for energy and they do, Shale oil comprises more than a third of the onshore production of crude oil in the lower 48 states. It drove U.S. oil output from 5.7 million barrels per day in 2011 to United States is the best case in point where shale oil production is now on the rise conventional “proven reserve” statistic for oil reserves and consumption without India. 5.6. Other Asia. 10.6. Europe. 13.3. Russia. 98.9. Middle East. 753.4.
7 Feb 2018 Firstly, thanks to the development of shale gas, the reserves of As consequence of the falling of crude oil price in recent years, the price of
26 Nov 2019 A fracking site in England. Past estimates of India's shale reserves vary widely. New Delhi: Oil and Natural Gas Corp (ONGC) has wound up its has special relevance in petroleum sector, as our import dependence is likely to rise from 73% in gas, particularly shale gas, holds special relevance for India. Policy resources. The latter differs from undiscovered, by proven reserves and. This estimate is more than all the proven reserves of crude oil in the world today. In the US, many licenses were issued in the 1970s for exploitation of shale oil. 2 Dec 2018 Shale gas has abundant reserves around the world, which may be sufficient to meet the demand of clean energy for many years to come Shale 21 Dec 2017 The Indian federal government intends to enable private players to exploit shale reserves in its oil and gas blocks by changing the definition of 11 Feb 2019 In late 2013, India gave rights to Oil and Natural Gas Corp Ltd to explore for shale oil and gas reserves. However, after years of exploratory 1 Aug 2018 India's cabinet approved on Wednesday a policy to allow companies to of unconventional hydrocarbon reserves like shale gas & CBM which
Thus, India holds at least 91 trillion cubic feet of recoverable gas reserves. On top of conventional gas reserves, India also holds an estimated 63 trillion cubic feet of recoverable shale gas.

KOCHI: India has an estimated 96 trillion cubic feet of recoverable shale gas reserves and the government is eager to tap them. Fracking technology sends high pressure streams of water, sand and chemicals into shale formations to bring up the oil and gas. A former Oil India chairman C. Ratnam has for long advocated that India exploit its shale reserves in Arunachal, which some experts estimate to be up to 14 billion tonnes.
In June 2013, the US Energy Information Administration estimated that Argentina held 802 trillion cubic feet of recoverable shale gas reserves, the third largest in the world. Large reserves of tight oil and gas were in the Vaca Muerta formation.
