David Livingston spoke at the World Shale Oil and Gas Summit, where he addressed the outlook for unconventional hydrocarbons in Asia, the need to fill data and policy gaps, as well as the geopolitical implications of increasing unconventional oil production in the Asia-Pacific region. He later participated in a panel with government officials from Australia, China, and India to discuss these issues as applied to individual country cases.
This presentation was originally given at the World Shale and Oil Gas Summit.
