Abstract: Growing energy demands, rising environmental awareness, increasing fossil fuel prices and new energy technologies have placed unconventional resources high on governments’ agenda. The impact of natural gas production from shale has lead to a heavy debate and controversy around the hydraulic fracturing technology. Decisions that are likely to have an environmental impact, such as decisions on the shale gas development entail grater public participation. The shale gas debate begs for an inclusive definition of the stakeholder mapping concept that will not leave out any group or individual who can affect or is affected by the shale gas debate. The article concludes that portraying the key role played by stakeholders in the policy formulation process has made stakeholder analysis a vital tool and will be pivotal to policy making related to shale gas in Romania.
