Abstract
Chinese political winds encourage unconventional resource exploitation. However, replication of “shale gas miracle” outside
North America seems impossible because of things like problematical accumulation in geological conditions. There are many
obstacles and difficulties China faced in this context. The accuracy of resource assessment and technology progress are key
aspect to lower investment risk. Based on these, this paper provides integrate ways to make resource estimation with three
existing method and a new framework of technology learning curve, applied in order to investigate techniques of application in
unconventional field of China.
