The Impact of U.S Shale Revolution on U.S Persian Gulf Policy

With regards to current realities of global oil market and foreseeable global economy U.S shale oil would and will act as a ceiling versus high oil prices; in this way, U.S as a polar of oil producer would be able to reduce its vulnerabilities in confronting with crises from volatile regions and acting as a new petro-state but the key point is that other pillars of U.S Persian Gulf policies make sense as well.
