Interactive map of tight oil and shale gas plays in the contiguous

The U.S. Energy Information Administration provides an interactive map showing the major tight oil and shale gas plays in the lower 48 states. Tight oil and shale gas are two of the main types of "unconventional" oil and gas resources, and played an important role in the early-21st-century resurgence in domestic production of oil (beginning around 2009) and natural gas (beginning around 2006).
