Developers of Australia's Beetaloo Basin are deploying United States equipment, capital, and expertise to cut costs by as much as 60% and make the country's inaugural shale gas project commercially viable. The shale formation delivered its initial Natural Gas production this month, drawing comparisons to the prolific Marcellus shale.
