Publisher Description: In the UK, petroleum law and policy to date has focused on the oil and gas resources in the North Sea, and their regulation over the last 50 years. However, a new source of petroleum in the UK is emerging - that of the unconventional petroleum resource of shale gas. This thematic book considers shale gas law and regulation. While there is a focus on the UK, the book also places it within a wider global context. Rather than a theoretical focus, the book offers a practical, applicable focus, so that the reader can apply the legal principles and policies to their jurisdiction. Handbook of Shale Gas Law and Policy focuses on five major themes: overview and introduction to shale gas activities * shale gas economics and energy security * access to shale gas resources * shale gas law and regulation * the future of shale gas.
