Oil shale, also known as kerogen shale, is an organic-rich fine-grained sedimentary rock containing kerogen (a solid mixture of organic chemical compounds) from which liquid hydrocarbons called shale oil (not to be confused with tight oil—crude oil occurring naturally in shales) can be produced. Shale oil is a substitute for conventional crude oil; however, extracting shale oil from oil shale is more costly than the production of conventional crude oil both financially and in terms of its environmental impact. Deposits of oil shale occur around the world, including major deposits in the United States. Estimates of global deposits range from 4.8 to 5 trillion barrels (760×109 to 790×109 m3) of oil in place.
In USA, Oil Shale key players include Anadarko, Occidental Petroleum, Chesapeake Energy, ExxonMobil, Marathon Oil, etc. The top five players hold a share about 50%.
Bakken is the largest market, with a share about 30%, followed by Eagle Ford, Permian Basin, having a total share about 45 percent.
In terms of product, Below 6% is the largest segment, with a share about 60%. And in terms of application, the largest application is Shale Oil, followed by Electricity, etc.
