英文摘要	Unconventional shale gas production in the United States has been largely improved due to the development of hydraulic fracturing technology and is projected to rapidly grow in the coming years. However, the acquisition of freshwater and management of flowback and produced (FP) water associated with hydraulic fracturing operation are two of the greatest challenges in shale gas development, especially in arid regions. For efficient and sustainable water management, a better understanding of freshwater consumption and FP water production for shale gas wells is necessary to appropriately expand and upgrade the existing water network and shale gas network. To achieve this, we first collected water-use volume and monthly FP water production volume data for shale gas wells drilled in the Eagle Ford and Marcellus shale regions. Next, after integrating the data from multiple database sources, the water recovery ratio was calculated as the ratio of cumulative FP water volume to water-use volume and used as a metric to characterize the wells in these two shale regions. Then, we analyzed the obtained water recovery ratio data according to the location and production history to study the spatiotemporal variations across multiple counties and time periods. It shows that around 30% of the collected wells drilled in the Eagle Ford region have the water recovery ratio greater than 1; however, only 1% of the collected wells drilled in the Marcellus region have the water recovery ratio greater than 1. Besides, the water recovery ratios vary significantly across the counties in each shale region. To demonstrate how different water recovery ratio may affect shale gas development, a shale gas supply chain network (SGSCN) optimization model from the literature was utilized to perform two case studies in the Marcellus region. The optimal results suggest that different configurations of SGSCN are required for economically desirable and practically feasible management of shale gas wells with different water recovery ratios.
