Abstract: Hydraulic fracturing technology of shale gas reservoir has triggered strong response from both inside and outside China. Discussion of this issue is more focused on how to perfect the relative laws and regulations and how to step up industrial supervision than harmonious development of resource, environment and technology. Rich shale gas resource has triggered a rapid gas energy development both at home and abroad. The environmental issue should not be regarded as an obstacle for large-scale application of clean energy. Technological creation and application hold the key to harmonious development of resources and the environment. Based on a comprehensive analysis of the strategic position of shale gas resource, this paper studies various environmental issues existing in application of hydraulic fracturing technology as well as the situation for development of relative key technologies, making an objective assessment of the environmental issues. The paper proposes that the general principle of China’s shale gas development be based on application of technology for reasonable development of resources, bringing about restraints and interaction among resource, environment and technology. Therefore, it puts forth three policies --- using “technology” for reasonable and “green” development of “resource”, increasing investment for higher “environmental” and “technological” performance on the basis of “resource” performance, and perfecting “technological system” to impose “environmental supervision” through the process of “resource development”.
