each APEC economy, including a time frame for their availability.

Part II of our APEC Unconventional Gas Census report provides: (1) a suggested framework, scope and content of an APEC Unconventional Gas Census and relationship to other relevant international and national activities; and (2) recommendations for setting up an APEC Unconventional Gas Census, including scope, content, timing and management responsibility.
