StockCall.com Provides Stock Research on Ultra Petroleum Corp., Apache Corp., Range Resources Corp., and Endeavour Intl. Corp.

New York City, New York -- (May 17, 2013)

The shale boom in the U.S. has created significant opportunities for the oil and gas industry. In a recent report, the International Energy Agency (IEA) noted that the shale revolution has created a supply shock in the global market. The IEA, meanwhile, noted that demand for oil and gas will continue to be driven by emerging economies. However, with the Chinese economy showing signs of slowdown, the oil and gas industry can expect a challenging year ahead.
