美国页岩气革命取得巨大成功，由此可能带来的全球能源、经济和政治格局变化，引发了全世界的关注。欧洲希望复制美国成功模式。对欧洲页岩气开发现状及面临的挑战进行了研究和分析：目前，欧洲页岩气开发工作进展缓慢，在技术、成本和环境等方面面临重大挑战；但在开发方面也有诸多积极因素，如，油气资源衰竭、减排和环境保护等。我国页岩气资源潜力远高于欧洲，加快页岩气开发，对于改变我国油气资源格局，保障国家能源安全，促进经济发展，意义重大。%The success of shale gas revolution in US, which is attracting the global attention, may trigger the change of world pattern with respect to energy, economy and politics. Europe made a relatively slow progress in exploiting its shale gas resources with an attempt to repeat the success of America. The paper introduced the current status of shale gas development in Europe, mainly analyzed the major challenges Europe is facing in technologies, production costs, and environment protection. It then discussed some positive factors that could push forward exploitation of shale gas. The potential of shale gas exploitation in China is much higher than that of Europe, so accelerating the shale gas development is signiifcant for China to change its pattern of oil and gas resources, as well as to ensure its energy safety.
