Global Shale Gas Market Growth 2025-2031

The global Shale Gas market size is predicted to grow from US$ 88920 million in 2025 to US$ 116980 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.7% from 2025 to 2031.

Shale gas is natural gas found in shale deposits, where it is trapped in microscopic or submicroscopic pores. This natural gas is a mixture of naturally occurring hydrocarbon gases produced from the decomposition of organic matter (plant and animal remains). Shale gas is mainly methane that is trapped within clay-rich sedimentary rock at depths greater than 1,500 metres. The low permeability of the rock means that gas, either absorbed or in a free state, in the pores of the rock, is unable to flow easily. To extract shale gas, wells are drilled anywhere from 1,500 – 4,000 metres deep through various layers of rock to access the shale.

Global core shale gas manufacturers include EQT Corporation, Antero Resources Corporation, ExxonMobil etc. The top 3 companies hold a share about 11%. North America is the largest market, with a share about 90%, followed by Asia-Pacific and Latin America with the share about 5% and 2%. And in terms of application, the largest application is power generation, followed by industrial and commercial.
