Market Analysis
New data released by the American Oil & Gas Journal shows that global oil reserves reached 1.52 trillion barrels in 2011, an increase of 50 billion barrels from 2010's 1.47 trillion barrels, with a growth rate of 3.4%. Natural gas reserves stood at 189.7 trillion cubic meters, up 1.5% from 2010. In recent years, the booming development of shale gas has helped the U.S. reverse its declining trend in natural gas production, leading to year-on-year increases and surpassing Russia in 2009. For three consecutive years, the U.S. has maintained its position as the world's top producer. Unconventional oil and gas resources have become a key driver for the future growth of major international oil companies. Based on their respective technological strengths, these companies have chosen different unconventional oil and gas resource sectors as priorities for resource succession.
