Abstract
A revolution is taking place on the worldwide gas market, primarily due to the increase in U.S. natural gas production from shale gas plays. Whereas shale gas is mainstream production in the USA, its exploration and production is still considered ‘unconventional’ elsewhere. Oil and gas regimes in other parts of the world are distinctively different, in terms of geology, regulations, and surface conditions.
