"We think the current US gas market model is unsustainable in the medium and
long term ... We forecast that soon, the
disparity between the shale gas costs and sales price will disappear. When it
happens, it will make the US plans to become a major gas exporter
economically unviable ... [T]he true costs of
shale-gas production are upwards of 150% higher than the revenues ... One can produce gold out of sea water, but does it make economic sense? ... China is in possession of large shale gas reserves, however, the cost of its
extraction could be much higher than in the US ... China's
shale plays are located in areas of the country that may not have enough
water to successfully engage in hydraulic fracturing."
