1 The Bowland-Hodder shale gas play (or Bowland-Hodder shales) is the term used in this report for an amalgamation of shales of Visean to early Namurian age that includes the Bowland Shale Formation (and its equivalents) together with older shales which equate to the Hodder Mudstone Formation.irky Misperton 1 drilled a complete Bowland-Hodder unit thickness of 4598 ft (1401 m). The organic-rich upper part of the Bowland-Hodder unit is typically up to c.500 ft (150 m) thick, but locally reaches 2900 ft (890 m).
Shale is a fine-grained sedimentary rock that forms from the compaction of silt and clay-size mineral particles that we commonly call mud. This composition places shale in a category of sedimentary rocks known as mudstones.lthough drilling can extract large amounts of oil and natural gas from the reservoir rock, much of it remains trapped within the shale. This oil and gas is very difficult to remove because it is trapped within tiny pore spaces or adsorbed onto clay mineral particles that make-up the shale.
