The carbon capture process at the Scotford oil sands upgrader will capture about 35% of emissions. The CO 2 will then be released from the amine by heating, and dehydrated and compressed into a dense fluid for pipeline transport. water vessels, the triethylene glycol dehydration unit, and.

An innovative oil-upgrading technology that can increase the economics of unconventional petroleum resources has been developed under a US Department of Energy-funded project. In the case of oil sands bitumen, the API gravity is increased from 8 API to more than 20 API, eliminating the need for diluent for pipeline transportation.

Northern Gateway’s West line, 36 inches in diameter, would transport an average of 525,000 barrels of oil sands crude per day to Kitimat. Condensate is used to thin petroleum products for pipeline transport (diluent). The East Line, 20 inches in diameter, will carry 193,000 barrels of condensate per day back to Edmonton.

This surge in exploration and production from unconventional sources has been accompanied by public concerns about various environmental issues—including air quality, water quantity and quality, and human health impacts. Measurements on the variation of air emission composition and magnitude by natural gas and oil plays need to be made.

On-road transportation accounts for approximately 20% of United States energy consumption. Such information is generally not relevant for long-lived GHGs or for fossil fuel depletion, which together have received overwhelming attention among extant LCAs of transportation fuels. Associated tailpipe emissions alone account for 40?60%

The report explored three major options for monetizing the resource: an onshore LNG plant; a transnational undersea pipeline; and the deployment of a CNG marine transport system. While natural gas is often cheaper than oil and gives off fewer emissions, developing the resource comes with risks, especially for smaller nations.
