Global reservesAt the global level there is oil shale in 37 countries. According to the latest World Energy Council estimates are available of these States to 4786 billion barrels of oil that can be extracted from these rocks. Which is equivalent to four times the proven reserves of conventional crudes.
The United States holds the rank of the First World, where reserves were 3706 billion barrels, 77% of global reserves. Followed by China, Russia, Congo, Brazil, Italy and Morocco.
Reserves are limited and almost four Arab countries, namely Egypt (six billion barrels in the province of the Red Sea and the New Valley Governorate) and Syria (twenty billion barrels in the region of Aleppo), Jordan (34 billion barrels in My Community and Perfumeries). Morocco occupies the place and the first Arab and African second-seventh World, where its reserves amounted to 53 billion barrels.
According to the National Bureau of Hedrokrburat and Minerals of the Ministry of Energy, Mines, Water and Environment of Morocco, there are rock-oil in ten areas including Tangier and Tadla, Essaouira, Ouarzazate, mites and other areas in the desert. But the most important mines are located in Tarfaya and Tmhoudet.
The area of the mines Tarfaya 2,500-km square and contains eighty billion tons of oil shale. And contain mines Tmhoudet the 42 billion tons of rock and an area of 350 km square and thickness up to 250 meters.
Based on official statistics, which will come its statement about the size of the oil in the rocks, we reached the following results which is close to estimates of the above-mentioned stores where mines Tarfaya 35.4 billion barrels of oil and mining Tmhoudet 20.4 billion barrels of oil.
This reserves the Moroccan equivalent of proven reserves of conventional crudes in Algeria and Libya. And on this basis will be the rock oil in the case of oil extraction is sufficient to satisfy the Moroccan oil consumption for eight centuries
