Bloomberg reports that the U.S. will slash its estimate of undiscovered Marcellus Shale natural gas by as much as 80 percent.
The market news is quoted as saying:

That supersedes an Energy Department projection of 410 trillion cubic feet, said Philip Budzik, an operations research analyst with the Energy Information Administration.
