natural gas has a smaller commodity price in both Europe and the United States. Natural gas is at least $5/MMBTU cheaper than gas oil. Over the long term, the use of clean fuel such as LNG is bound to result in lengthening a carrier’s maintenance cycle. However, the costs expected ...
Simms, in Shreir's Corrosion, 2010 Gas turbines have been developed to be used in a wide variety of applications ranging from aeroengines to large-scale power generation. Each of these applications presents its own particular set of challenges. However, many of these systems experience damage ...

The miscible injection process between gas and crude oil is done in two ways: (1) miscibility occurs in the first contact, (2) miscibility occurs at multiple contacts. The miscibility process in the first contact occurs when two phases are dissolved in all ratios to each other27. The multipl...
TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — Gas prices continued to rise in New Jersey and around the nation at large this past week, but analysts say a drop in demand and falling oil prices may soon bring relief at the pumps.
Contrary to claims from American politicians, lobbyists, and oil and gas executives, allowing energy development in the Alaskan Arctic National Wildlife Re
Regular gas in a high-octane engine Cars that ask for high-octane fuels have engines that were designed for that fuel. While these engines will technically still run on a lower-octane gas, the decreased fuel quality may cause engine knocking and loss of performance, and damage the engine ove...
The numerical modeling results could be applied for the prediction and analysis of multicrack damage in oil and gas pipeline welds. Keywords: unequal-length double cracks; virtual crack closure technique; crack interference; oil and gas pipeline weld; numerical modeling...
In pipelines for transporting oil and gas, multiple cracks often exist in weld joints. The interaction among the cracks should be considered as it directly affects the life span of the pipeline structures. In the current investigation, based on the fluid–solid magnetic coupling model, the virtual...
engine components as well as produce a gummy residue that could create blockages in the fuel line. Bad fuel, especially gas containing Ethanol, can also draw in water vapor which can corrode the tank and fuel system. If left for a long period of time, the damage can be costly to repair...
