Shale oil production processes

Shale Oil is a huge global fossil fuel resource although extracting oil from the shale is not simple. Much still needs to be understood to make the process more cost-effective to increase economic flow rates. This book will prove useful for scientists and engineers already engaged in fossil fuels as well as those who wish to gain a general overview or update of the science and technology of fossil fuels. The book also provides methods which should reduce environmental footprint by addressing surface mining and extraction processes, in situ conversion process and hydrotreatment.
