In addition, proved reserves of natural gas resources reached 464.3
So was this back in 2008. I got the price of gas wrong, but nailed the rest of it. When my good friend and former CBS EcoMedia colleague, Taylor, heard Larry Mantle on today’s live broadcast of KPCC’s Film Week mention, “Joe from Redondo Beach” and the documentary “Inconvenient Truth,” she texted to ask if that was me.
UPS plans to build an additional five compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling stations and add more than 700 new CNG vehicles including 400 semi-tractors and 330 terminal trucks.

MIT and the IEA both have newly released reports exploring the potential for and impact of a major expansion in global usage of natural gas, given the current re-evaluation of global supplies. The IEA takes a more conventional approach, assessing the impact on the penetration of vehicles burning gas as their fuel. Earlier post.)
The 2008 on display in Geneva. Combustion was also optimized by improving the aerodynamics of the chamber (inlet ducts, piston tops) and by adapting the ignition to operation with a high rate of residual gas (IGR, “internal gas residual” ). 2008 gasoline engine range. 2008 diesel engine range.

The focus is on the impacts on China’s energy system and GDP growth, and on global climate indicators such as greenhouse gas concentrations, radiative forcing, and global temperature change. The researchers argue for a global economy-wide greenhouse gas tax that spreads the burden of responsibility.

Marine fuel cells can contribute to compliance with greenhouse gas emissions regulations in the industry.
HPHT issues are not new; Schlumberger’s quarterly publication Oilfield Review examined HPHT issues in 1998 and again in 2008. A good example is the Haynesville shale gas play where one E&P Company has completed more than 300 HPHT wells, he noted. HPHT reservoirs drive new technology requirements in a number of ways.

This includes almost 24 million inactive leased acres in the Gulf of Mexico, which potentially could hold more than 11 billion barrels of oil and 50 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. We’re also exploring and assessing new frontiers for oil and gas development from Alaska to the Mid- and South Atlantic. And we have to do it quickly.
of the world’s total greenhouse gas emissions, there is an increased pressure for the maritime industry to transition to more sustainable power sources. The International Maritime Organization, a United Nations agency responsible for regulating shipping, has set a global target to cut annual emissions by at least 50% by 2050 from 2008 levels.
The US Energy Information Administration (EIA) expects higher-than-average natural gas prices globally as demand remains high this winter in the United States, Europe, and Asia, and inventories remain low. That price will be the highest inflation-adjusted monthly average price since 2008. —EIA Administrator Joe DeCarolis.
Fulcrum will gasify 147,000 tons of municipal solid waste to produce synthesis gas which it then will catalytically convert to synthetic paraffinic kerosene/jet fuel via a Fischer-Tropsch (FT) process. A venturi scrubber captures and removes any entrained particulate, and the syngas is further cooled in a packed gas cooler scrubber.
A conventional internal-combustion engine combines with hydraulic units and an accompanying gas (e.g., In operation, hydraulic units compress a gas cushion using hydraulic fluid. Fluid and gas are kept separate from one another. The gas cushion stores energy by the gas being compressed rather like a coiled spring.
A study by a team of researchers from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Earth System Research Laboratory has found that methane emissions from oil and natural gas production in the United States may not be rising as quickly as had been feared. Their paper is published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters.
In the ten-year period from 2008 to 2018, the share of conventional diesel buses dropped from 70% to 42%. Natural gas and diesel hybrid drivetrains have replaced the greatest share of diesel buses followed by biodiesel and “other” buses, which include hydrogen, electric, and propane.
