Special thanks go to Keiichi Yokobori, Chairman of the SER Executive Board, for guiding the production of the Survey and providing the Overview. Finally, the WEC thanks the Joint Editors Judy Trinnaman and Alan Clarke for compiling, validating and formatting the data. Once again they have successfully and professionally completed this enormous task, both achieving an excellent quality and keeping to the planned schedule. The WEC is grateful to them for their knowledge, dedication, tenacity and inspiration. FOREWORD This 19th WEC Survey of Energy Resources contains a chapter for each energy resource, ranging from the conventional fossil fuels to the renewables, both new and traditional. Marine current energy has been covered for the first time. Generally, the coverage of each resource comprises a commentary by a leading expert in the field, data tables and country notes. The tables summarise the worldwide resources, reserves, production and consumption of fossil fuels and comparable data for non- fossil energy sources, as applicable. The country notes aim to highlight the main features of the resource and its utilisation. In addition, definitions pertinent to the resource in question are set out to aid the reader’s understanding. • Reserves/Resources - where relevant, tables of fossils fuels provide reserve statistics (covered globally from WEC and non-WEC sources) and amounts in place (as reported by WEC Member Committees). • Tabulations – data tables are arranged on a standard regional basis throughout. • Units – where relevant, data have been provided in alternative units (cubic feet as well as cubic metres, barrels as well as tonnes) in order to facilitate use of survey data in an industry context. • References and Sources – as far as possible, these have been consolidated in the introductory notes to the data tables and the country notes. Any review of energy resources is critically dependent upon the availability of data, and reliable, comprehensive information does not always exist. While the basis of the compilation was input provided by WEC Member Committees, completion necessitated recourse to a multitude of national and international sources and in some cases estimation. The difficulty in obtaining information has been compounded by recent trends in the energy sector. The availability of data has been reduced with the process of deregulation and privatisation, as data-reporting channels have been lost or more data becomes confidential. In addition, problems in the quantification of energy resources persist, in particular for those universally-found resources: solar energy, wind power and biomass, owing to their evolutionary state. Despite growth of such capacity throughout the world, installations are frequently on an extremely small scale, often leading to great difficulties in their identification and enumeration. Another problematical area is that of the definitions relating to resources and reserves: it is well recognised that each country tends to have its own notion of what constitutes resources and reserves. A continued effort has been made in order to maximise harmonisation and comparability. As editors we strive to develop and maintain contacts in the energy world and hope that in time the availability of data will not only improve but expand to cover those energy resources that presently go unrecorded (e.g. coal bed methane). We are grateful to all those who have helped to produce this Survey: we extend our thanks to the WEC Member Committees, to the authors of the Commentaries, to Keiichi Yokobori for guidance and for writing the Overview and to Ann Fewster for her much-appreciated administrative support. We would also like to thank the WEC London office for overseeing the production and the Argentine Member Committee for the production of the CD-Rom. Judy Trinnaman and Alan Clarke Editors Back to SER Contents Page Overview OVERVIEW This is the 19th edition of the Survey of Energy Resources produced by the World Energy Council since 1934. The 2001 Survey, which will be released in conjunction with the 18th World Energy Congress in Buenos Aires in October 2001, provides a review of world energy resources, mainly as of the end of 1999. The main findings of the Survey confirm that conventional commercial fossil fuels, encompassing coal, oil and natural gas, remain in adequate supply, with a substantial resource base. Compared to the 1998 Survey, coal and natural gas reserves increased somewhat, while those of oil declined slightly. Within the total coal reserves, both sub-bituminous coal and lignite reserves declined from the previously reported levels by 15% and 3% respectively, but bituminous coal reserves increased by 2%. While Coal supply in the medium and long term is assured, the future prospects for delivery and use of coal will largely depend on the impact of deregulation of electricity markets, policies to reduce greenhouse gases, and technological advances (cleaner use of coal and carbon sequestration). Coal could contribute in a sustainable way to satisfying demand for energy from the two billion people in the world who today still depend on traditional fuels. In the commentary on Oil the pessimistic and optimistic reserve assessments have been propounded and appear to incline towards the former, for the following reasons: • proved recoverable reserves of oil, which are largely concentrated in the Middle East, declined, while those of gas, which are more evenly spread, increased; • fewer giant fields were discovered in the 1990’s than in the 1960’s (albeit

    / _... i';C4 - SHELF , Historyof Western Oil Shale Paul L. Russell . " The Center for Professional Advancement Paul Russell received his degree from the University of Arizona. After working for Industry for five years, he began his involvement with oil shale in 1948 when he joined the U.S. Bureau of Mines and was assigned to Rifle, Colorado, to work at Anvil Points. During the middle fifties, he was assigned to the Atomic Energy Com­ mission to study the extraction of ura­ nium from the Chattanooga Shales in Tennessee. He became Research Director of the U.S. Bureau ofMines in 1967 and served in this capacity until he retired in 1979. During these years his involvement with oil shale intensified. Currently, he is an engineering consultant. ISBN: 0-86563-000-3 ,._-------_._.. V.D.ALLRED 6016 SOUTH BANNOCK LI7TLETON. COLO. 80120 ....~ ...........~..... This compelling history spans 65 years of western oil shale development from its begin­ ning to the present day. These were the years in which most of the present-day retorting pro­ cesses were invented and devel­ oped,leading to present studies of in-situ retorting, and to the resumption of leasing of fed­ eral oil shale lands. The many excellent illustra­ tions and contemporary photo­ graphs in themselves provide a pictorial record of an era when the United States was "wild over oil"-an era when Gov­ ernment estimates of billions of barrels of oil in western oil shales were used to advan­ tage for questionable-if not fraudulent-stock promotions designed to raise capital for development, or to fatten the promoters' pockets.

  • Geothermal Development in Hungary Country Update Report 2000–2002
    GEOTHERMAL DEVELOPMENT IN HUNGARY COUNTRY UPDATE REPORT 2000–2002 Miklós Árpási Hungarian Geothermal Association Lupény u. 3/B. H-1026, Budapest, Hungary ABSTRACT Information is provided on the status of the geothermal energy utilization – direct use – in Hungary with emphasis on developments between 2000–2002. Level of utilization of geothermal energy in the World has been increased in this period. Geothermal energy was the leading producer with 70% of the total electricity production of the renewables energy sources (wind. solar, geothermal and tidal) followed by wind energy with 28% of the electricity production. The current cost in USD¢/kWh of direct heat use from biomass is 1–5, geothermal 0,5–5 and solar heating 3–20. The parameters of direct use in Hungary were decreased in this period and the proportion of geothermal energy utilization in the energy balance of Hungary, despite the significance proven dynamic reserves (with reinjection) of 380 Mm3/a with heat content of 63,5 PJ/a at ∆T = 40 oC is remained very low (0,25%). The utilization of the geothermal energy only for direct use, despite of the possibility of production of geothermal fluids with surface temperature higher than 100oC, no electricity has been generated. Geothermal energy utilization for direct use is estimated to 324,5 MWt of geothermal capacity and to currently supply 2804 TJ/a of utilized heat energy through direct application in Hungary, by December 31, 2002. Geothermal heat pumps represent about 4,0 MWt of installed capacity. The quantity of produced thermal water for direct use in year 2002 was approximately 15.0 million cu.m.

Abstract Unconventional reservoirs can add huge amounts of additional energy to our world resources bases like organic shale in terms of Shale gas, shale oil, tight gas and coal-bed methane. These reservoirs can transform the world global energy market through advances in reservoir characterization, drilling, and completion technologies. Reservoir characterization and properties have great influences on the exploration and development processes, it is not through a single discipline that can provide a fulfill description of the reservoir characteristics especially for unconventional reservoirs. Moreover, unconventional sources can be defined by their difference of intrinsic of their geological sittings, origins, and tapping mechanisms, thus having different methodologies for exploration, production, and development methods. Therefore, it is very important to well express and identify the necessary parameters for unconventional characterization of these reservoirs for defining reservoir rock and fluid properties in terms of total organic carbon content, gas adsorption, level of maturity, grains surface roughness, original fluids in place, and etc. Hence there are many developed correlations and methods to get these parameters that can define each one of them, but most of them are not correlated with each other.

  • U.S. Fossil Fuel Resources: Terminology, Reporting, and Summary
    U.S. Fossil Fuel Resources: Terminology, Reporting, and Summary Carl E. Behrens Specialist in Energy Policy Michael Ratner Specialist in Energy Policy Carol Glover Information Research Specialist December 28, 2011 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R40872 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress U.S. Fossil Fuel Resources: Terminology, Reporting, and Summary Summary Discussions of U.S. and global energy supply refer to oil, natural gas, and coal using several terms that may be unfamiliar to some. The terms used to describe different types of fossil fuels have technically precise definitions, and misunderstanding or misuse of these terms may lead to errors and confusion in estimating energy available or making comparisons among fuels, regions, or nations. Fossil fuels are categorized, classified, and named using a number of variables. Naturally occurring deposits of any material, whether it is fossil fuels, gold, or timber, comprise a broad spectrum of concentration, quality, and accessibility (geologic, technical, and cultural). Terminology is adopted to reflect those characteristics. For oil and natural gas, a major distinction in measuring quantities of energy commodities is made between proved reserves and undiscovered resources. Proved reserves are those amounts of oil, natural gas, or coal that have been discovered and defined, typically by drilling wells or other exploratory measures, and which can be economically recovered. In the United States, proved reserves are typically measured by private companies, who report their findings to the Energy Information Administration, and also to the Securities and Exchange Commission because they are considered capital assets. In addition to the volumes of proved reserves are deposits of oil and gas that have not yet been discovered, which are called undiscovered resources.

    ORIGINAL ARTICLE Surpassing the era of disengaged acceptance: The future of public discourse on nuclear energy Gabor Sarlos RMIT UNIVERSITY, VIETNAM Gabor Sarlos, Mariann Fekete UNIVERSITY OF SZEGED, HUNGARY DOI: 10.19195/1899-5101.11.1(20).5 ABSTRACT: Both the United Kingdom and Hungary run ambitious nuclear power plans to keep nuclear power as an important element of their energy mixes. Th e objective of the analysis is to identify if there is the intent and the possibility for a diff erent form of public engagement in shaping the nuclear future. Th e study builds on the comparative analysis of the cases of Hungary and the United Kingdom. Th e ‘communication packages’ theory serves as reference of comparison. Th e study fi nds that changing social value sets and communication technology developments create challenges to governments in securing support for the nuclear agenda. Th is challenge creates an opportunity for members of the public with ‘reluctant acceptance’ of the nuclear agenda. Building on global uncertainty, challenges to the prevailing political and economic status quo, together with the grow- ing infl uence of social media might assist the public to become vocal in their opinions about nucle- ar energy. KEYWORDS: nuclear discourse, disengagement, social values, communication package. INTRODUCTION Th e current study aims to provide an insight and comparison into the public percep- tion of nuclear energy of the UK and of Hungary. It studies the relevance of the concept of ‘public sphere’ and of ‘communication packages’ in the context of current, European discourse. A critical analysis of relevant theories and of contemporary literature sets the context of the study.
