Cons of Natural Gas Drilling Gas drilling has had the most impact on Pennsylvania ever since it was discovered. Whether or not it would have a direct impact on the environment is the question everyone has. Or “is it too good to be true?” obviously there are flaws in the idea of natural gas drilling and I am going to point these out whether or not you see the obvious issues on the matter is for you too judge for one’s self. My final question to you is how many people really going to make a huge

source of energy called natural gas‚ found deep within the Earth’s crust. Commercials created by these companies state that natural gas is easy retrieve‚ cheap and clean burning. However‚ these commercials fail to explain that one of the processes of retrieving natural gas‚ or hydraulic fracturing‚ is extremely harmful to the environment. Hydraulic fracturing‚ or “fracking”‚ is the process of injecting millions of gallons of water into the ground to crack shale rock around a gas well. When the shale

Forecasting Natural Gas Prices Abstract In this project we will model and forecast the natural gas prices over the short-term through the development of the Error Correction Model (ECM). This is presented as the best predictive model among various alternatives. To build this model‚ we gathered the oil prices to analyze the impact of the changes in these prices on the changes in natural gas prices. The results of the forecasting exercise‚ carried out using the US Natural Gas 3 Months Strips

extract natural gas and oil from the earth. They use pressurized mixture of water‚ sand‚ and chemicals to form veins (or fractures) in the rock in order for the natural gas or oil to escape. Although this process is an affective way to produce the natural resources from the earth‚ there are repercussions that are being ignored by the well companies. For instance‚ there were several private wells in Dimock‚ Pennsylvania contaminated with methane caused by the fracking done by Cabot Oil and Gas. The

Natural Gas: The Best Choice for Tomorrow’s Energy What comes to mind when you think about energy? I bet most of you probably think about electricity‚ heat‚ and basic everyday things that we use that require some sort of energy. Let’s think about that for a moment. How are things like electricity and heat produced? Many of the commodities that we all in enjoy in this world like electricity‚ heat‚ and many other things are produced by an energy source. These sources for a very long time consisted

Natural gas accounts for around 10% share of the overall energy consumption in India. Widening demand and supply gap has resulted in increasing natural gas imports in the form of LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas). The natural gas imports are expected to rise significantly over the next five years. The rising concern of Green House Gas emissions and low price of natural gas is driving the demand for natural gas in India. Government is promoting natural gas production in India by introducing new pricing

Horizontal hydrofracking is a means of tapping shale deposits containing natural gas that were previously inaccessible by conventional drilling. Vertical hydrofracking is used to extend the life of an existing well once its productivity starts to run out‚ sort of a last resort. Horizontal fracking differs in that it uses a mixture

SINKHOLES Methane Gas Hydrates Scientists at Cardiff University have discovered the presence of large concentrations of methane gas trapped in the ocean floor. This gas is due to dying and decomposing sea organisms‚ or serpentinization. The sediment contains bacteria that produce methane‚ which accumulates as super concentrated methane ice‚ called gas hydrates. The layer of ice traps the methane gas‚ and scientists are studying it as a potential energy source. What is methane? Methane

2013 Cyprus Is Sitting On A Natural Gas Gold Mine A recent discovery off of the coast of Cyprus‚ an island miles off the coast of Turkey‚ has found a large field of natural gas. The field is said to be between 5 trillion and 8 trillion cubic feet of gas. Cyprus is currently trying finance their huge budget deficits and bad bank holdings. Major energy companies around the world might want to invest in mining some of the gas as well. If Cyprus chose to mine this field of gas‚ they could generate bushels
