It has lower energy efficiency than some other technologies, but it has several other advantages. Producing boreholes with wide range of diameters or drilling in water environment can be mentioned. The research team from Slovakia has developed drilling concept based on utilization of electrical plasma.
US shale gas basins, 2011. Shale gas in the United States is an available source of unconventional natural gas.Led by new applications of hydraulic fracturing technology and horizontal drilling, development of new sources of shale gas has offset declines in production from conventional gas reservoirs, and has led to major increases in reserves of U.S. natural gas.
The Institute of Gas Technology was founded in 1941 at the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT). [ 1 ] The Gas Research Institute was founded in 1976 by an ad hoc committee made up of members from the American Gas Association and the Interstate Natural Gas Association of America.

According to Biden, the environmental dangers of new offshore oil and gas drilling — and the knock-on effects for the fishing, recreation and tourism industries — outweigh the potential energy ...
Environmental Protection Agency illustration of the water cycle of hydraulic fracturing. Fracking in the United States began in 1949. [1] According to the Department of Energy (DOE), by 2013 at least two million oil and gas wells in the US had been hydraulically fractured, and that of new wells being drilled, up to 95% are hydraulically fractured.
Quaise, Inc was founded in 2018 to develop a millimeter-wave drilling system for converting existing power stations to use superdeep geothermal energy. [1] The system would repurpose existing gyrotron technology to drill 20 kilometers beneath the surface, where temperatures exceed 400°C.
