As the number of unconventional oil and gas wells in the U.S. continues to rise, water management is increasingly becoming a concern for operators. In many basins across the U.S. drilling is taking place further away from freshwater sources, surface water and groundwater supplies are stressed, and regulations are limiting wastewater disposal. It would benefit […]
Regulatory framework for domestic small-scale LNG projects
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) recently announced a rule to expedite the approval of small-scale exports of natural gas including LNG. According to the new rule, DOE will consider small-scale natural gas exports to be consistent with public interest and automatically approve them if they are at or below 51.75 billion cubic feet of […]
How energy efficient are we really today?
Our team at ADI spends a lot of time supporting clients assess both North American and global natural gas markets through projects across the value chain from supply through various end-uses. When it comes to natural gas demand, we find that several segments although growing rapidly contribute marginally to gas demand in that sector. A […]
Capital spending in the North American refining sector
North American refiners have announced their quarterly results and they seem to be performing very well. Leading refiners have recorded a significant growth in their earnings in the second quarter in 2018 over the first quarter in the same year. For example, ExxonMobil’s earnings in the U.S. refining sector have risen from $319 million in […]
Assessing the Shift to Natural Gas-Fired Power Generation
ADI presented at two sessions some of its research and insights based on its consulting work at the 2018 World Gas Conference in Washington, DC last week. The second focused on natural gas-fired power generation. The supply of natural gas is growing globally at 1.6% annually. United States, the world’s largest gas producer, will also […]
Fueling the Oilfield with Natural Gas
ADI presented at two sessions some of its research and insights based on its consulting work at the 2018 World Gas Conference in Washington, DC last week. The first focused on natural gas use — CNG and LNG, in particular — in the oilfield. U.S. natural gas supply will continue to be cheap and abundant […]
Coal, carbon capture, and EOR: A triple crown of synergies
NRG has recently started a demonstration plant for carbon capture and storage at its coal-fired power plant southwest of Houston, Texas. The project is a 50/50 joint venture between JX Nippon Oil & Gas Exploration and NRG and aims to capture all CO2 emissions from the 240 MW plant and use it in a nearby […]
How can OEM, EPC, and OFS companies compete in the downturn?
Over the past decade, the North American oil and gas industry has seen many dramatic changes. The most dramatic change has been an increase in production from unconventionals leading to a large supply of oil, natural gas, and NGLs. However, unconventional production is more dependent on the larger supply chain leading to significant investment across […]
Learning from the European LNG infrastructure build-out
We recently wrote about LNG cruise ships and how one of the largest barriers to adopting LNG as a marine fuel in North America is the lack of bunkering infrastructure. We also noted that European LNG bunkering infrastructure is significantly more robust than in North America. One reason for this is that the European Union […]
Delivered LNG costs from North America
The United States has started exporting LNG, thanks to the cheap and abundant supply of natural gas from shale plays. The first round of LNG exports began from the U.S. Gulf Coast and was quickly followed by a second project on the U.S. East Coast. However, since natural gas supply is now available across the […]
