During various periods, the United States (the US) has adopted diverse policies for achieving self‐sufficiency in supplying its required energy. Technological revolution that has begun from a decade ago pursues the goal of energy independency. Using new technologies for developing its unconventional oil and gas resources, the United States has taken steps in line with the accomplishment of its objective of energy independence. Numerous articles have examined the various technical, economic and political aspects and consequences of the US technological revolution. This paper, in a new and innovative approach based on theoretical framework of neorealism, aims to show the implications of technological revolution in energy sector on the US dependency on fossil energy imports. Efforts will be made to find an answer to this main question as to what effects have the technological revolution occurrence in energy sector had on the US dependency on the fossil energy imports? In response, the study's main hypothesis is that, the US policy to exploit the unconventional oil and gas resources through technological revolution can be elaborated within the framework of the self‐sufficiency strategy for energy production in line with the reduction of the threats stemming from dependency on the oil and gas imports.

美国能源行业的技术革命，了解对美国依赖化石能源进口的影响

在不同时期，美国（美国）采取了多种政策来实现其所需能源供应的自给自足。从十年前开始的技术革命追求能源独立的目标。美国利用新技术开发其非常规的石油和天然气资源，为实现其能源独立目标已采取了一些步骤。许多文章研究了美国技术革命的各种技术，经济和政治方面以及后果。本文以新现实主义的理论框架为基础，采用一种新的创新方法，旨在展示能源行业的技术革命对美国对化石能源进口的依赖所产生的影响。将努力找到这个主要问题的答案，即能源行业发生的技术革命对美国对化石能源进口的依赖产生了哪些影响？对此，该研究的主要假设是，可以在能源生产自给自足战略的框架内，根据减少依赖带来的威胁，制定美国通过技术革命开采非常规油气资源的政策。石油和天然气进口。
