Unconventional oil and gas production has estate a important part of the global energiy landscape. These methods, including hydraulic fracturing (fracking) and horizonthal drilling, have e unlocked vagt reserves but also raised environmental concerns. One of the mogt presssing issues is te te cocock footprint associated with these extaction techniques.

Unconventional Resources

Te karbon footprint refers to to te te total greenhouse gas emissions caused directlyy or indirectlyy by an activity. In thoe context of unconventional oil and gas, this includes emissions from extraction, procesing, transportation, and combustion of thee fuels. These accesties of ten emit more greenhouse gases compared to conventional contrices due to energy- intensive processes.
