China holds up to 30 trillion cubic meters of shale gas resources. China’s goal is to realize that 12% of natural gas production comes from shale gas wells by 2020. In this case, China will have to learn how to well test and explore shale gas and thus realizing ideal production. In 2009, China began its first venture into developing shale gas with the help of Royal Dutch Shell. In September 2010, China Petroleum Corp, better known as Sinopec, signed a deal with Chevron to develop shale gas targets near Guiyang City. Sinopec is hoping to increase production from unconventional sources like shale gas and coal bed methane to approximately 2.5 billion cubic meters within the next five years.
