East Newark Barnett Shale Field is a large unconventional oil and gas field located in North Texas. It is one of the largest natural gas fields in the United States and contains significant reserves of natural gas and natural gas liquids trapped within the Barnett Shale, a geological formation made of organic-rich shale. The field has been developed extensively since the late 1990s using hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling techniques to extract the resources from the shale rock.
