…and power-electronics; and less gas, until gas prices normalized. Self-defeatingly, we would also expect less short-term decarbonization via coal-to-gas switching. Across our research we have modelled over 150 different technologies…
…be much higher for associated gas in oil basins than non-associated gas in gas basins. The Marcellus is the lowest-leak basin in our sample at 0.1%, versus the Permian, Bakken…

Once c75% of the customers have left a gas network, it will become very difficult for these gas distributors to remain…
…report is to assess whether the oil and gas industry can generate any incremental income via demand-shifting. We find oil and gas assets are generally less capable of demand-shifting, compared…
…the gas, cleaning the gas, and compressing the gas into a regional pipeline. Generally, double-digit returns are achievable at a large new shale pad, by capturing and commercialising associated gas…
The data-file gives an overview of different gas-sweetening and gas-processing operations, outlining the process, indicative costs, and drawbacks. We also note 20 companies with gas treatment technologies, although our list…
This data-file explores an alternative design for a combined cycle gas turbine, re-circulating exhaust gases (including CO2) after the combustion stage, back into the turbine’s compressor and combustion zones. The…
…gas. If 3.5% of methane is leaked, then natural gas is, debatably, no greener than coal. Pages 5-8 quantify methane emissions and leaks across the global gas industry, including a…
