Flaring and venting of natural gas : background and issues, in brief /

Natural gas is regularly lost as it is burned (flared) and released into the atmosphere (vented) during the production of oil and gas. While the exact amount of gas lost in this way is uncertain, given the vast extent of oil and gas production throughout the world, it could be significant. In additi...

505 8 |a Backgroundavailable estimates of vented and flared natural gas vary, but volumes reported to ogor are likely underestimated because they do not include some sources; available technologies could reduceabout 40 percent of natural gas estimated to be lost to venting and flaring on onshore federal leases, potentially increasing federal royalty payments and reducing greenhouse gas emissions; interior's oversight does not ensure that operators minimize venting and flaring on federal leases, while a voluntary epa program has reduced vented gas according to epa and industry participants; conclusion.

520 |a Natural gas is regularly lost as it is burned (flared) and released into the atmosphere (vented) during the production of oil and gas. While the exact amount of gas lost in this way is uncertain, given the vast extent of oil and gas production throughout the world, it could be significant. In addition to resulting in the loss of a potentially valuable resource, the burning and release of natural gas into the atmosphere contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, which are generally considered to be warming the earth's atmosphere. This book describes flaring and venting data and what the federal go.
