Description
Shale gas is natural gas extracted from shale formations, primarily composed of methane. This dataset includes key raw materials, energy inputs, atmospheric emissions, and waste from the production process; infrastructure such as production equipment and facility construction is not within the system boundary of the dataset. The life cycle inventory is compiled from data obtained from multiple sources. The shale gas extraction and processing processes include fracturing, collection, gas separation and purification, compression, and other processes.
