Smart solutions to help industry operate safely, securely, and efficiently while reducing costs. One of the main reasons for gas flaring is the disposal and burning of natural gas as waste. Typically when there are large volumes of hydrogen sulfide in natural gas, it cannot be safely extracted. To dispose of this gas, it is burned off.
When the gas is burned, the hydrogen is converted into water and the sulphur becomes sulphur dioxide. When petroleum crude oil is extracted and produced from onshore or offshore oil wells, natural gas associated with the oil is also brought to the surface.
If companies do not have the infrastructure in place to capture natural gas and safely transport it — such as when oil rigs are in deep waters — natural gas is often flared. Natural gas generated from oil and gas well can be injected into aged wells to restore dwindling natural formation pressure and maintain production outputs.
This self-sustaining cycle is quite economical as waste generated is minimal and overall process efficiency is boosted. Natural gas is the main raw material employed in petrochemical production processes.
Rather than flaring associated gas from oil and gas wells, the flare gas can be channeled into the production of syngas, ammonia, hydrogen fuel for cars, or the manufacture of rubber, glass, steel, and paint.
Liquefying and storing associated gas is a safer and economical alternative to gas flaring. Following purification processes, liquefied natural gas can be stored for use both on an industrial scale and domestically. Compressed natural gas CNG refers to methane stored at high pressure. Methane derived from landfills and oil wells can be compressed at a pressure ranging between MPa and stored in cylinders.
This gas flaring alternative can be used to power vehicles which run on natural gas engines. GENERON is dedicated to providing all customers with access to technologies needed to optimize their industrial energy production processes.
