Since the start of the year, the price of crude oil has risen about 40% while the price of natural gas has fallen by about 40%. Can that divergence be maintained? A barrel of oil has about six times the energy content of a thousand cubic feet of natural gas. The graph below compares...
natural gas prices have been much lower relative to those for oil since early 2009. The break owes to technological change that substantially increased the supply of U.S. shale gas resources.doi:10.1016/j.enpol.2017.08.018Brown, Stephen P. A...
Oil sourced from the Shublik is of relatively low gravity and high sulfur content. The Kingak and Brookian Shales contain mainly Type II and III kerogen. Oil sourced from these rocks is of high gravity and low sulfur.ADVERTISEMENT Arctic Oil and Natural Gas References [1] Shale Gas and ...
The gas industry, like the oil industry, uses the US definition of a billion (109) and a trillion (1012). Further complications are introduced by different editorial styles in the various gas industry publications, some of which use lower case m and mm for the Roman numeral, M, and some...
Analysis of natural gas prices and also developments in the natural gas sector. Shale gas and new fracking techniques are covered in detail. | Page 1
Natural gas and oil generated in the Utica Shale have migrated upwards and are produced from reservoirs in overlying rock units. An even greater quantity of oil and natural gas is still trapped in the Utica Shale. The Utica Shale has not been extensively developed for two reasons: 1) its ...
Theshale revolutionhas played a significant role in decoupling crude oil and natural gas prices in the U.S. The widespread adoption of hydraulic fracturing ("fracking") and horizontal drilling techniques has led to a surge in shale oil and shale gas production. This increased supply has ...
and how people formulate theirbudgets. In comparing the rise of natural gas vs. oil prices, both have an impact on the consumer. For instance, when home heating prices climb, people have to decide whether or not they can afford to turn up their thermostats. Furthermore, when various...

In this master thesis we explore the relationship between the natural gasprice and crude oil price in the U.S. We find that the prices have beencointegrated in the period from 1997-2006, and that the prices havedecoupled in the period after this. We have discussed factors explainingthe histo...
