In this paper, mainly through reading and analysis from information network,collecting literature after 1999, vie ideas on the political and economic school geopolitical and SWOT analysis, we try to describe, explain and predict the production and the strategy. The International Energy Agency (IEA) research analysis from 2011 to 2030 statistics, the shale gas supply will increase threefold, and shale oil supplies increased sixfold. US oil and gas production in 2030 will account for nearly one-fifth of the world's energy supply increased amount. Shale oil and gas production on the oil supply "quantity" and "price" fluctuating influences the US economy. Due to the use of natural gas more than burning coal to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, so the Obama administration smartly yielded to the use of clean energy to achieve the strategic objectives of energy. Further deeper US strategic influence, the United States will be the role of natural gas and oil and other energy "Export Control" policy and further evolved into "limited export open" policy; and US oil and gas self-sufficiency, gradually, will affect the global energy producers sales to US. These energy-producing countries will inevitably turn to marketing to other countries such as the energy demand in Europe, Asia and India. Yet the oil and natural gas will also, because of excess supply, the price rise is not a easy thing. Shale oil and gas commercial mass production, future oil and gas market in the United States benefit the United States and will further strengthen this system. This situation meets US energy independence stance energy strategy, as well as to meet their long-awaited dream of energy self-sufficiency. Future US shale oil and gas business due to mass production, in addition to access to cheap oil and natural gas, has made energy sufficient quantity for export, as well as, while after the energy crisis and the second world war, the US achieves the dream of energy security strategic objectives.
