About this title

Synopsis:

Natural gas represents a major energy source for the 21st century. Because of the abundance of its reserves, its advantages from the environmental standpoint and its flexibility of use, it is currently undergoing rapid development. However, an increasing proportion of its reserves are located offshore, in difficult areas that are often far away from consumption areas. Major technical and economic challenges must be overcome. This book provides a synthesis of the various economic, scientific and technical aspects which must be taken into consideration to ensure the success of a "gas project". It reviews all the stages in the gas chain, from the reservoir to the reception terminal, while giving an overview of the available know-how together with a clear picture of the future outlook. It is intended for a wide audience of students, researchers, engineers, scientists and economists, as well as all those who want to grasp the essentials of the natural-gas industry and techniques.
