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

Ofon Field‚ Oil and Gas Field‚ Nigeria Ofon Field is an oil and natural gas field located in the Oil Mining Lease (OML) 102‚ about 65km offshore in the south-eastern coast of Nigeria. The reserves lie at a water depth of 40m (131ft). The OML 102 is owned by state-owned Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC - 60%) and is operated by Total Exploration-Production Nigeria (TEPNG - 40%)‚ formerly Elf Petroleum Nigeria. The proved and probable reserves at Ofon are about 350 million barrels

“Hydraulic Fracturing‚” and this is the process by which fossil fuels‚ usually natural gas or petroleum‚ are extracted from the earth. During this process‚ drilling from a well into hard shale rock takes place‚ and then that rock is cracked. This cracking releases the fossil fuels inside the shale rocks. Water‚ sand and chemicals are injected into the cracked rocks at high pressure. Ultimately the injection forces the gas or oil to flow out of the well(CNN 2012). The whole process of just developing a

The Ideal Gas Law Lab taught me that hydrogen is lighter than air‚ and can be ignited. The materials used for the experiment include 0.05 grams of magnesium‚ 1M H2SO4‚ water‚ a 100mL graduated cylinder‚ and a beaker. The hydrogen can be ignited with a match. First‚ the beaker is filled with water. The acid is then added to the graduated cylinder‚ with about ¾ inch left at the top‚ which is space for water. Afterward‚ the magnesium is added to the graduated cylinder‚ and it is inverted upside down

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 of

classification of ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ law is unhelpful and misleading in reflecting enforceability in international law. What are the sources of international law? What is meant by ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ law?

Oil And Gas Conservation Oil and gas conservation effects your daily life in several ways: 1) As you conserve you own consumption of oil and gas‚ your fuel bills are reduced 2) Oil and gas conservation tends to reduce demand for oil and gas and this‚ in turn‚ tends to lower the price of fuels and products made from oil and gas (like plastics) to the consumer. 3) Conservation of oil and gas usually also means less burning of them as fuels‚ which‚ in turn reduces the amount of pollutants

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
