在非常规石油和天然气开采期间进行生物物理和社会经济监测，对于评估变化和确定非常规石油和天然气开采活动的影响具有重要的参考条件。UOG开采的大规模累积影响使得跨地理和社会政治区域的标准化监测变得重要。本文强调了一个强有力的监测框架的重要性，该框架必须作为规划UOG提取期间监测活动的指导方针。本文介绍了南非的一个案例研究，以说明在制定普遍采掘监测框架过程中需要处理的重要方面。对南非的情况进行了严格的评估，并讨论了由此产生的政策影响。重要的政策考虑包括在UOG提取过程中进行基线监测，以综合、系统和标准化的方式进行UOG提取监测，确保有适当的资源可用于执行监测，以及实施与UOG提取监测挂钩的适应性管理计划。
Biophysical and socio-economic monitoring during unconventional oil and gas (UOG) extraction is important to assess change and to have reference conditions against which to identify UOG extraction activity impacts. The large-scale cumulative impacts of UOG extraction makes standardised monitoring across geographic and socio-political regions important. This article emphasises the importance of a robust monitoring framework that must serve as a guideline for planning monitoring activities during UOG extraction. A case study from South Africa is presented to illustrate important aspects to address during the development of a UOG extraction monitoring framework. The South African case is critically assessed and resultant policy implications are discussed. Important policy considerations include performing baseline monitoring during UOG extraction, performing UOG extraction monitoring in an integrated, systematic, and standardised manner, ensuring that proper resources are available to perform the monitoring and implementing an adaptive management plan that is linked to UOG extraction monitoring.
