  • As a measure to deploy carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology within its shale gas operations, Chevron and a group of industry titans have launched a fresh effort. With a mission to decrease the carbon intensity of operations, Chevron debuted a pilot operation in January 2025 at the Marcellus Shale to trap CO2 emissions resulting from production in unconventional gas and entombing them in underground caverns. It forms part of Chevron's strategy of reaching 2050 net-zero emissions.
  • Royal Dutch Shell launched a new digital platform aimed at maximizing the development of unconventional gas resources in July 2024. The platform employs machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) to process large volumes of data gathered from shale gas well monitoring in real-time. Shell is able to estimate production trends, optimize drilling schedules, and enhance overall operational efficiency due to this technology. The process is expected to make unconventional gas extraction more economically viable and lower costs.
  • The new multi-stage hydraulic fracturing technology that ExxonMobil announced is designed to increase the rate at which shale gas can be extracted from tight reservoirs. This new system, integrating best-practice fracturing fluids, real-time data analysis, and precision drilling to optimize output with less environmental footprint, was successfully tested by ExxonMobil in the Permian Basin during March 2024. This technology dramatically enhances unconventional gas extraction efficiency.
