Oil and gas fuel from unconventional types of reservoirs was the development of alternative sources in addition to oil and gas fuels from conventional type reservoirs that can be obtained to meet domestic needs. The development of unconventional oil and gas reservoirs has developed rapidly outside Indonesia, such as in North America and Canada. One type of unconventional oil and gas reservoir was obtained from shale rock reservoirs. Hydrocarbon shale produced from shale formations, both source from rock and reservoir. This unconventional hydrocarbon has a big potential to be utilized. In this study, an analysis of the development of unconventional oil and gas from Shale Hydrocarbons carried out in Indonesia. This research included the distribution of shale reservoir basins, the number of unconventional shale reservoir resources, factors affecting the development of unconventional oil and gas in shale reservoirs in Indonesia, efforts made by the government to promote exploration activities, exploitation of shale reservoirs in Indonesia, and existing regulations for non-conventional oil and gas. The development of unconventional oil and gas reservoir shale needed to be developed immediately and will attract investors to meet domestic needs for renewable energy needs. From the geological data obtained, there were 6 basins and 11 formations that analyzed for commercialization. Tanjung and Batu Kelau Formation was a prospect formation from 4 desired data categories. In terms of regulation, it still needed improvement to increase the interest of upstream oil and gas entrepreneurs in the unconventional oil and gas shale reservoir. Research in the field of unconventional oil and gas exploitation technology for hydrocarbon shale needed to be improved.

Conventional reservoirs and unconventional reservoirs differ a lot in terms of accumulation mechanism, distribution, exploration evaluation method and technique. Therefore the accumulation study and exploration evaluation for unconventional reservoir are different from that of traditional reservoir. This paper presents five development techniques of unconventional oil and gas resources, their features, advantages and disadvantages and summarizes the current advanced technologies and their development trends.

In Fuyang oil layer, the later-period structure is complex; the reservoir is mostly composed by river-way sand; the oil and gas reservoir is significantly concealed, so it is greatly difficult to identify. To accurately describe the reservoir, facies controlled reservoir is simulated stochastically using Geocad software in the study area: Lithofacies is first established using Gauss truncation algorithm to construct a facies model of mudstone, dry sandstone, poor sandstone, and sandstone, and its fitting rate is 0.814, and then a porosity model is established using sequential Gauss method under the constraint of the lithofacies model and its fitting rate is 0.814, and its correlation coefficients are as follows: 0.845 is for sandstone; 0.893 is for poor sandstone; 0.915 is for dry stone; a permeability model is established using cloud transformation method under the constraint of the porosity model and its fitting rate is 0.732, and its correlation coefficients are as follows: 0.695 is for sandstone; 0.734 is for poor sandstone; 0.824 is for dry sandstone. These prove that the facies controlled reservoir modeling based on Geocad plays a significant role in the areas where the later-period structure is complex and sand is thin and changed intricately. Thus, the needs of the oil field exploration and development can be fulfilled by the model to a certain extent.
