Qatar needs to develop other ‘unconventional’ sources of natural gas, including shale gas, says Dr Ibrahim Al Ibrahim, Secretary General of the General Secretariat for Development Planning (GSDP).
“For us as gas producers and exporters of importance is the development of other kinds of gas called ‘unconventional’ gas, including shale gas,” he said.
Shale gas is one of a number of “unconventional” sources of natural gas that also include coalbed methane, tight sandstones, and methane hydrates. Shale gas is expected to greatly expand worldwide energy supply.
