technology advances. To quantify the impacts of changes in supplies of oil
and gas we developed the following two core alternative experiments to
simulate impacts of changes in supplies of oil and gas with and without
shale resources for each of these five-year time slices:
Experiment I: Changes in US oil and gas with no expansion in shale
resources. That is, only conventional oil and gas are included, and
therefore total production declines.
