Includes full-color isopach and richness maps for each organic-rich and organic-lean oil shale interval within the upper Green River Formation.
Offers computational exploration of trade-offs in drilling and heating options on the net energy return for oil produced from an in situ process.
Analyzes costs and emissions associated with in situ production of oil shale.
Discusses legal and policy issues for a nascent oil shale industry.
Focusing on research conducted by investigators associated with The University of Utahs Institute for Clean and Secure Energy (ICSE), this book presents a comprehensive analysis of Uinta Basin oil shale across a range of scales and of disciplines. Scales range from the molecular analysis of kerogen to the basin-scale analysis of oil shale geology. Legal, policy, geologic, chemical, economic, and engineering perspectives provide insight into the nature of the Uinta Basin oil shale resource and the potential costs (both financial and environmental) of its extraction.
