Shale gas reserve evaluation by laboratory pyrolysis and gas holding capacity consistent with field data

Nature Communications, 2019
Quantification of shale gas reserves is critical to shape the energy policies of countries. Here, the authors present a new procedure to estimate gas in place and show that important UK gas reserves are actually much lower than previously thought.
