Large capital projects are critical drivers of growth in the oil and gas industry. Over the next two decades there will be an estimated $22 trillion dollars of investment into oil and gas projects worldwide. North America, Europe, and Asia account for ~14 billion dollars of planned investment spend. Capital projects, however, routinely face cost […]
ADI Analytics Presents at 2015 Energy Construction Forum
ADI Analytics was invited to present at the inaugural Energy Construction Forum in Galveston, Texas on March 3-4, 2015. The event was organized by the Stone Fort Group and featured over 30 industry speakers focusing on problems and solutions seen in oil and gas projects. Tyler Wilson of ADI Analytics gave a presentation on optimizing […]
Options to Reduce Flaring
In 2014, almost one-third of natural gas extracted in North Dakota was lost to flaring. Flaring is when the gas is burned at the well instead of being commercially used. Flaring is more environmentally friendly than venting excess natural gas into the atmosphere. When natural gas is vented, the pollutant that enters the atmosphere is […]
Bloomberg Quotes ADI Analytics on Small-Scale LNG Projects
Uday Turaga of ADI Analytics was quoted in Bloomberg’s story on small-scale LNG projects in North America and an advantage that they hold over their large-scale counterparts. Drawing upon his industry experience and knowledge of the natural gas value chain, Turaga commented on small-scale LNG export projects: Now, with finances tight, smaller projects have an advantage […]
Summary of the LNG Export Regulatory Process
Liquefied natural gas export projects in the United States have many hurdles to jump over before they can commence operations. One of the largest hoops to jump is the regulatory hoop. In the United States there are two major agencies that handle regulatory approvals for LNG exporting projects. First, is the U.S. Department of Energy […]
New LNG Export Project Planned in Louisiana
Live Oak LNG is the latest North American LNG export project to be announced. It joins 40 some other projects that have been announced since the increase in shale gas production. Live Oak estimates that their five million mtpa project will be in service by the end of 2019. However, Live Oak’s timeline is likely […]
What Role Can CNG Fill as a Transportation Fuel?
Recently, we wrote about the role of natural gas as a transportation fuel and the focus was on LNG. CNG is another way that natural gas can be used as a transportation fuel. There is not a CNG or LNG specific engine. In both cases, the fuel is delivered to the automobile engine as a […]
Will GTL Survive Low Oil Prices?
Sasol recently announced that its $11 billion gas to liquids (GTL) and ethane cracker project in Lake Charles, Louisiana has been suspended. Gas to liquids technology takes natural gas and converts it into high-value fuels such as diesel and jet fuel. In addition to fuels, the Sasol plant was also planning to produce petrochemicals. In […]
New Technology to Address Flare Emissions
Natural gas flaring has increased dramatically in the United States with the growing development of new shale plays. Today, roughly 10% of total natural gas production is lost to venting and flaring, and in North Dakota one third of all natural gas produced is flared rather than being sold. This increase in flaring has attracted […]
Fueling Transportation with Natural Gas
Thanks to shale gas, natural gas production is outpacing demand and available cheaply. As a result people are looking for new ways to use natural gas. One way is to use natural gas as a transportation fuel for heavy-duty trucks and marine ships. The main driving force behind such applications would be a price difference […]
