Unconventional shale gas and tight oil plays in the United States currently produce about 65 billion cubic feet per day of natural gas (70% of total U.S. dry gas production) and about 7 million barrels per day of crude oil (60% of total U.S. oil production).

Despite the success of horizontal drilling and multi-stage hydraulic fracturing in extracting these resources, recovery factors remain stubbornly low (typically less than 10% for tight oil and around 25% for dry gas).
In this context, the Stanford Natural Gas Initiative supports an unconventional reservoirs focus area to conduct research that will address improving recovery and optimizing development in these critically important reservoirs.

The industrial affiliate program of the Natural Gas Initiative (NGI) is a membership-based consortium that supports and participates in research and other programs of the initiative. Membership is available to all interested companies and other organizations wishing to participate in the open, honest pursuit of knowledge to help deliver on NGI’s goal of maximizing the benefits and minimizing the costs of natural gas production and use.
Membership options range from $35,000/year to $250,000/year. To learn more about supporting NGI or becoming a member of the industrial affiliates program, please contact NGI Managing Director Naomi Boness
