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”. This map shows locations of oil and gas wells that use hydraulic fracturing (fracking). Click on a well for more information specific to that well.
