Abstract

Unconventional gas development including shale and tight gas is one of the main businesses focused in global natural gas development industry. Recently, new projects and plans on global shale gas development are announced successively starting from north America. It is very natural that the nation having high demand and high dependence on overseas energy resources, like us, has high interests about the new energy resources development. Hence, in this study, we investigated and summarized the technical features of shale gas and core technical indicators for shale gas development business which plays the role of locomotive in global oil and gas development industry. And we looked into global trend of natural gas industry and outlook on shale gas development. Finally, we surveyed and examined global geographical distribution and regional features and trend of shale gas development by major countries or regions. Through this study, we tried to assist Korean enterprise\'s aggressive participants and setting up shale gas development businesses plans in a future by understanding the characteristics of shale gas development business and the industrial prospect and regional characteristics.

셰일과 치밀가스 등 비전통가스 개발은 최근 세계 천연가스 개발 산업에 있어서 가장 주목받는 분야 중의 하나이다. 최근 북미를 기점으로 중국, 유럽 등에서 셰일가스 개발의 시도와 계획이 속속 발표되고 있다. 우리나라와 같이 에너지자원의 수요와 해외의존도가 모두 높은 국가에서 새로운 에너지자원의 개발에 대한 관심과 관련 산업의 적극적 참여는 매우 중요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 최근 세계적인 자원개발 산업 전반의 변화를 견인하고 있는 셰일가스의 특징과 셰일가스 개발사업의 추진을 위한 핵심적 기술지표를 검토, 요약하였다. 다음으로 천연가스 산업의 세계적 동향과 향후 셰일가스의 개발 전망을 살펴보고, 최종적으로 셰일가스의 지리적인 분포현황과 주요 국가 또는 지역별 특징 및 산업동향을 조사, 분석하였다. 결과적으로 본 연구에서는 셰일가스 개발산업의 특징을 이해하고, 향후 지역별 부존 현항과 산업 전망을 제시함으로써 우리기업의 적극적 참여 및 추진방향의 수립에 일조하고자 하였다.
