Shale to carry critical geostrategic implications for US for coming decades

With the US assuming a new role as a swing producer due to the unconventionals, the nation is gaining far more influence over the global oil market than before, Baron Lukas, CEO of EnviroLogic Solutions, said at the 2016 IADC Drilling Onshore Conference in Houston. In addition, shale could allow the US to become fully energy-independent. In this video from the conference on 19 May, Mr Lukas explains the geostrategic implications of US shale production. He also discusses demographic trends, such as aging populations in developed countries, that could have an impact on long-term energy demand.
