The research, conducted by Argonne researchers in collaboration with Stanford University and the University of California, Davis, analyzed the Eagle Ford shale formation in Texas and the Bakken play mainly in North Dakota. Additionally, the water usage rate was generally higher at the gas-rich wells.

Emission reductions produced by the project are verified by an approved third party and registered with the Climate Action Reserve (Project ID CAR102 ). Additionally, they have treated 644 road sites to reduce erosion and sediment delivery to the streams, helping to improve water quality and fish habitat. Click to enlarge.

The production of synthetic fuels from carbon dioxide (and/or water) has been widely studied and can be efficient. An upper limit to the electrical cost to drive C2CNT electrolysis is $70 based on Texas wind power costs, but will be lower with fuel expenses when oxy-fuel plant energy improvements are taken account. —Licht (2017).
