Everyone knew it was crazy to try to extract oil and natural gas buried in shale rock deep below the ground. Everyone, that is, except a few reckless wildcatters - who risked their careers to prove the world wrong.
Things looked grim for American energy in 2006. Oil production was in steep decline and natural gas was hard to find. The Iraq War threatened the nation’s already tenuous relations with the Middle East. China was rapidly industrializing and competing for resources. Major oil companies had just about given up on new discoveries on U.S. soil, and a new energy crisis seemed likely.
But a handful of men believed everything was about to change.
Far from the limelight, Aubrey McClendon, Harold Hamm, Mark Papa, and other wildcatters were determined to tap massive deposits of oil and gas that Exxon, Chevron, and other giants had dismissed as a waste of time. By experimenting with hydraulic fracturing through extremely dense shale—a process now known as fracking—the wildcatters started a revolution. In just a few years, they solved America’s dependence on imported energy, triggered a global environmental controversy—and made and lost astonishing fortunes.
No one understands these men—their ambitions, personalities, methods, and foibles—better than the award-winning Wall Street Journal reporter Gregory Zuckerman. His exclusive access enabled him to get close to the frackers and chronicle the untold story of how they transformed the nation and the world. The result is a dramatic narrative tracking a brutal competition among headstrong drillers. It stretches from the barren fields of North Dakota and the rolling hills of northeastern Pennsylvania to cluttered pickup trucks in Texas and tense Wall Street boardrooms.
Activists argue that the same methods that are creating so much new energy are also harming our water supply and threatening environmental chaos. The Frackers tells the story of the angry opposition unleashed by this revolution and explores just how dangerous fracking really is.
The frackers have already transformed the economic, environmental, and geopolitical course of history. Now, like the Rockefellers and the Gettys before them, they’re using their wealth and power to influence politics, education, entertainment, sports, and many other fields. Their story is one of the most important of our time.
Gregory Zuckerman is a special writer at The Wall Street Journal and the bestselling author of The Greatest Trade Ever. He is a two-time winner of the Gerald Loeb Award and a winner of the New York Press Club Journalism Award. He lives in New Jersey with his wife and two sons.

評分很有趣的一本書,對於我這個門外漢,瞭解頁岩氣到底是怎麼一迴事兒還是很足夠的。段子也夠多,自由市場可以激發好的創造,同時也可能作惡,這個是需要注意的。
没有什么如工业革命般对近代世界产生如此大的影响,而工业革命又主要是由能源推动革命进步的。能源对于当今世界发展的重要作用也不言而喻。能源影响着一个国家的经济发展、国计民生甚至是外交关系,还可能直接引发战争,所以没有战争的现代世界,对于能源的争夺与攫取,就成了...
評分页岩革命 一群默默无闻的小人物,掀起一场波澜壮阔的能源大革命。 怎样一群小人物? 乔治•米切尔,米切尔能源公司创始人。 奥布里•麦克伦登,切萨匹克能源公司创始人之一。 哈罗德•哈姆,大陆能源公司创始人。 对于普通人,他们也是亿万富翁了。但是对于国际石油巨头...
評分大量的石油使用,使得石油这种可再生资源面临枯竭的可能。如今高科技的发展,能不能也如添加剂一般,左一个,右一个添加在一起,就调和成如今人们已经无法离开的石油呢?事实证明应该是不可行的,于是美国石油大亨们在石油越来越贫乏的今天,想到了在岩石中开采出石油。真是没...
評分最早听到页岩二字,还是自己在读官仙的时候。官仙里面的北崇区,就蕴含有大量的页岩。当然,那本书里说的是油页岩。我在百度上查过,油页岩又叫油母页岩,是页岩的一种。对于地质学的这些东西,我是外行,一点儿也不懂,不过照我估计,本书里所提到的那些能够产生石油和天然气...
評分本书讲述的是,几位被视为极度投机和疯狂的企业家,如何靠着近乎偏执的创业精神和技术创新,为美国在页岩油气开采方面带来革命性的变化。 一场能源巨变,幕后却是几个看起来不怎么光鲜的人,他们贪婪、自负、偏执,有很多的不完美,但靠了盲目的乐观和一股子钻进去的精神,他们...
