I have heard that the Monterrey shale deposits, while huge, are not now technically recoverable. Given that the technology always seems to be improving, do you think that oil producers will eventually be able to extract some of it?

It think economically recover much of it would be a better description.

And yes, I think the amount that is economical to produce will increase with technology advances. How much and when are the questions that I cannot answer.
