Alaskan-Canadian-Russian Projects All Feeling Shale Heat -
No Hot Air by Guru. Russia also has significant, undeveloped shale gas reserves; the question is where these are relative to existing infrastructure, as well as the cost of development. If, in fact, the shale gas plays are proven to be as prolific as they are in North America, it's not out of the question these will be developed ahead of the Shtokman field, which is thought to contain almost four trillion cubic feet of natural gas. It's a situation not unlike the one faced in North America regarding the development of the Alaska or Mackenzie Valley pipelines.
