Specifically, it provides a rational, comprehensive look at the major business themes and management implications that surround the new abundance of natural gas in the United States and identifies some of the most significant geopolitical considerations globally. While acknowledging some of the controversies and hazards surrounding the extraction techniques, commonly known as ?fracking?, the author also looks at the hopes this technique poses and details how shale energy will impact supply chains for firms. The discovery of new sources of domestic natural gas in recent years - coupled with innovations that facilitated their extraction - has altered the global landscape. However, the vast majority of the information out there for business students, faculty, and practitioners about the natural gas revolution is focused on the impact of ?longer and lower? energy prices; and, secondarily, opportunities within the domestic energy sector. Each of these is crucial for business people to understand, however, the natural gas revolution is about much more. Companies of all sizes, whether they see it or not, are having new opportunities open up for their products and services. Further, the globalization of shale energy will have far reaching influence beyond simply economic factors. Geopolitical considerations and the re-structuring of international relations around shale energy will impact supply chains in a myriad of ways. This book aims to examine these opportunities. Featuring case studies from contemporary companies, this book will be of interest to students, academics, researchers, professionals and policy makers who are seeking to understand the business and global implications of the shale energy revolution. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Business,$x2191-5482 606 $aBusiness logistics 606 $aLeadership 606 $aNatural resources 606 $aEnergy policy 606 $aEnergy and state 606 $aSupply Chain Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/519030 606 $aBusiness Strategy/Leadership$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/515010 606 $aNatural Resource and Energy Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W48010 606 $aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/112000 615 0$aBusiness logistics. 615 0$aLeadership. 615 0$aNatural resources. 615 0$aEnergy policy. 615 0$aEnergy and state. 615 14$aSupply Chain Management. 615 24$aBusiness Strategy/Leadership. 615 24$aNatural Resource and Energy Economics. 615 24$aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management. 676 $a333.8233 700 $aThomas$b Andrew R$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0129741 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910298189003321 996 $aAmerican Shale Energy and the Global Economy$92509992 997 $aUNINA
