The largest global oil shale deposits—estimated to be equivalent to 1,500 Gbbl oil equivalent—are found in the Green River formation of Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming. The ATP retort has lower water requirements than previous surface retort designs, and can also utilize fine particles, thus reducing shale waste. Credit: ACS. Brandt, 2009.
