New technologies in the oil and natural gas sectors have enabled the explosion of
production growth in the United States known as the Shale Revolution. A combination of
hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling allows producers to access reserves of oil
and gas from low-permeability geological formations that were previously too expensive to
extract.
