Likewise, a September 2013 report by IHS concludes that midstream industries like transportation and downstream industries like manufacturing and chemicals are also receiving a massive stimulus. As a result of the shale-energy boom, “over $216 billion in total will be invested in the midstream and downstream oil and gas industries” from 2012 to 2025.
类似地，2013年9月的一份HIS报告指出，运输等中游行业和制造和化工等下游行业也得到了巨大的提振。拜页岩能源繁荣所赐，从2012年到2025年，“中游和下游油气行业投资总量将超过2 160亿美元”。2012年，美国页岩相关行业共创造了210万个工作岗位，其中有近380 000个来自中下游行业。
