Service Description: Shale gas is only available in limited geographies. Shale “basins” are where geologists have determined that gas exists and “plays” are areas where it’s economically feasible to extract gas via “fracking”. A handful of plays produced the majority of shale gas in the U.S. Click on one of the major plays to see its production over time.
