Recently, significant reserves of natural gas have been identified in Mozambique and Tanzania. These resources may support a pathway to both economic growth and a low-carbon future. This natural gas could be used locally for a host of different applications such as cooking, power generation, transportation and fertilizer production. The aim of this paper is to investigate how the potential futu...

This work summarizes methods for prevention of gas pipeline clogging by natural gas hydrate formation – with emphasis on development of environmentally friendly hydrate inhibitors. The work highlights advantages and disadvantages of current solutions and encourages future studies on new type of inhibitors based on ice-structuring proteins.

THIS ARTICLE DEVELOPS A FORMAL MODEL FOR COMPARING THE COST STRUCTURE OF THE TWO MAIN TRANSPORT OPTIONS FOR NATURAL GAS: liquefied natural gas (LNG) and pipelines. In particular, it evaluates how variations in the prices of natural gas and greenhouse gas emissions affect the relative cost-efficiency of these two options. Natural gas is often promoted as the most environmentally friendly of all ...

The lack of hydrogen (H 2 ) transportation infrastructure restricts the development H industry. Owing to high investment building specific facilities, using existing natural gas (NG) pipelines transport a blend and NG (H2NG) is viable means approach for large-scale long-time storage. However, variation in thermo-physical properties an H2NG will impact performance pipeline appliances. To address...

This paper presents a game-theoretic analysis of multimarket competition with strategic capacity investments, motivated by recent developments in international natural gas markets. It studies the competitive implications of heterogeneity in firm structure arising from asset specificity. A single-market focus confers advantage even in the absence of superior value or cost. Lower costs and a shar...

RGNC: A focused Investment RGNC's activities are focused on the gathering & processing, compression, transportation (pipelines), and marketing of natural gas in some of the largest producing areas of the United States -primarily Texas, Louisiana, and Kansas. Their business model involves three revenue structures: charging transport fees based on amount of gas shipped, brokering sales from one e...

This chapter presents a method for ontology construction and its application in developing ontology in the domain of natural gas pipeline operations. Both the method as well as the application ontology developed, contribute to the infrastructure of Semantic Web that provides semantic foundation for supporting information processing by autonomous software agents. This chapter presents the proces...
