17:52, 12 June, 2013
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) began a study of Armenia's shale
gas resources in 2011. The survey is on-going and is expected to be
finalized late this year, or early next year. About this "Armenpress"
was informed from U.S. embassy.
"The US Geological Survey was here and did some work last year, and
they are working on an analysis now in Washington. When we get that
analysis this year we will share it with the Armenian government and
the public," U.S. Ambassador to Armenia John A. Heffern stated.
On June 2 2011 between the Ministry of Energy and National resources
of the Republic of Armenia and U.S. state department was I signed a
memorandum of understanding on cooperation in spheres of estimation
and description of traditional and nontraditional energy resources
of Armenia. United states have great experience in the sphere of
developing traditional and nontraditional energy.
Physicochemical and geological surveys havebeen carried out in many
countries with the help of United States inorder to find out the
shale reserves and their physicochemical attributes.
