  • Description
  • Feature
  • Contents

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.

  • Summarizes integrated research performed on oil shale samples from the Skyline 16 core drilled in the Uinta Basin.
  • Evaluates oil shale at multiple scales, including molecular, core, production, and basin scales.
  • Provides data that can be used to improve pyrolysis models.
  • Examines mechanical properties of oil shale at temperatures and stresses characteristic of in situ extraction.
