... of the first of the modern shale plays, the development of the Barnett shale has been a proving ground for combining the technologies of horizontal drilling and large-volume hydraulic fracture treatments. As the Barnett Shale play has matured, natural gas producers have been looking to extrapolate the lessons...

... Abstract A significant challenge for Coal Bed Methane producers is dealing with the impacts of high density development needed to effectively recover the natural gas resource. One such concern is the need to meet regulatory requirements for environmental noise as stated in the Energy Resources...

... in our study contained up to 20 mol% of either CO 2 or N 2 each. Principle results of our laboratory study demonstrate the following phase behavior: temperature has a significant impact on the water vaporization process and the quantity of water vapor dissolved in a natural gas...

... primary energy source ( Figure 2 ). Corner 3 considers actual and forecasted consumption rates of each source. For example, the natural gas forecast is presented in Figure 5 . A question that arises is whether there are enough volumes of gas and other resources, perhaps non-conventional or non-fossil...

... Abstract The demand for natural gas has pushed energy industries toward the discovery of remote offshore reservoirs. Consequently, new technologies have to be developed to efficiently produce and transport natural gas to consumption centers. Common design challenges in all gas processing...

... energy source. Depressurization, thermal stimulation, and inhibitor injection are the methods being evaluated for commercial production of natural gas from hydrate-bearing geologic formations. An alternative method of gas hydrate production using CO 2 is under investigation. This process conducts...

... to natural gas and, eventually, to hydrogen. In this paper, natural gas is viewed as the compelling next fuel of choice and as the necessary stepping-stone towards hydrogen. Also offered here are production, consumption and transition forecasts. demarcho power plant power generation sustainability...

... Abstract By most accounts, natural gas demand in the United States (U.S.) is expected to significantly increase during the next two decades, from 23 trillion ft 3 in 2000 to over 33 Tcf in 2020. The Energy Information Administration projects that 22,000 gas wells will have to be drilled...

... for use in forecasting gas production trends for most gas producing countries. This paper presents our forecast for the world's supply of conventional natural gas to the year 2050. We used a multicyclic Hubbert approach to develop 53 country-specific gas supply models that enable production forecasts...

... – as a source of natural gas and as a repository for CO 2 . The second role arises because of the storage mechanism for gas in coal. Unlike CO 2 -enhanced oil recovery processes, CO 2 injected during ECBM recovery is strongly adsorbed onto the coal, and in a relatively homogeneous reservoir is not expected...

... Abstract In light of tighter restrictions on vehicle emissions and the existence of abundant resources, natural gas represents a highly attractive transportation fuel. Worldwide, there are currently more than 976,000 natural gas-vehicles, most of which are located in Europe and South America...

... with serious consequences on the environment – unless a move to cleaner fuels is adopted. It finally examines the future prospects of Natural Gas, an abundant and relatively cheap · at today's prices – primary energy source which is the most environmentally-benign of all fossil fuels. The study demonstrates...

... ABSTRACT The Gas Research Institute (GRI) has an R&D Program directed towards natural gas processing issues. Of particular interest is research on problems connected with small-scale subquality natural gas processing. Both fundamental, knowledge-building and applied research are carried out...

... Abstract Recently, considerable attention has been focused on the long term potential of natural gas. Studies have included resources that range from conventional gas in Stratigraphie traps to unconventional gas locked in hydrates. However, these studies have overlooked one large...

... ABSTRACT Dehydration is an essential step in the processing of natural gas to meet pipeline specifications. Water removal is required to prevent condensation of an aqueous phase which can lead to hydrate formation and corrosion in the gas handling system. The purpose of this paper is to review...

... to be adapted substitutes. The risks of inert gas dispersion within natural gas lead to a limit in the amount of inert gas that can enter into the cushion composition. Experimental studies along with field experience led to the conclusion that at least 20 % of the cushion gas can be replaced by inert gas...
