摘要

The U.S. is shifting to a greater reliance on natural gas to meet its energy needs, and a large part of this demand is being met by the development of shale gas formations. The increased utilization of natural gas is driven by the supply and thus lower cost, which largely results from new advances in engineering techniques. Primarily, gas production from horizontal drilling and high-volume hydraulic fracturing of shale and other low-porosity rock drives the favorable economics. Discussion of the environmental impacts of these operations has largely focused on water quality issues, but air pollution is also an important potential impact due to emissions associated with drilling, extraction, and associated transportation activities. Recently, air quality impacts have been measured in active oil and gas well areas. The extent to which these increased emissions impact air quality, especially in highly developed shale gas regions where there are no air monitors represents a substantial data gap and hinders effective air quality management.
