It depends on how the oil shale is to be processed. The "heated rod" in-situ process is still experimental and uses tons of energy. I don't think it's ready for prime time, if it ever will be.

The process used in other parts of the world that is economical and does work uses a lot of energy, water and leaves the land raped with it's surface peeled off. Fine for Estonia - even (R)'s here don't want to see it in Utah.
