The regasification process
Within the cycle of production and transportation of natural gas (NG), the regasifier allows you to return your product from a liquid (LNG) used in maritime transport to a gas useful for the land transport and end use.
The seamless tubes (Mannesmann tubes)
In the past, the tubes were produced by casting in molds, by drilling of cylinders, by welding of curved sheet metal: quite unsatisfactory techniques, because the tubes so made not stand high pressures and were subject to deformation.
The promises of shale oil
Pyrolysis, hydrogenation, or thermal dissolution convert the organic matter in the rock (kerogen) in oil and synthetic gas.
Subsea pipelines
The use of subsea pipelines interesting now the most various engineering applications, and are finding great development especially in the field of oil and gas pipelines for the use of offshore fields but also in the hydraulic field for example for the construction of aqueducts for feeding the drinking water of islands, for the realization of the sections to sea outfalls effluents from the treatment plants or for the realizations of variants of tracks on the coastal for areas heavily populated.
The process of odorization of methane gas
In order to assist in detecting leaks, a minute amount of odorant is added to the otherwise colorless and almost odorless gas used by consumers.
Blue Stream gas pipeline
The pipeline has been constructed by the Blue Stream Pipeline, the Netherlands based joint venture of Russian Gazprom and Italian Eni with the intent of diversifying Russian gas delivery routes to Turkey and avoiding third countries.
The cracking process in the production of hydrocarbons
Cracking is the process whereby complex organic molecules such as kerogens or heavy hydrocarbons are broken down into simpler molecules such as light hydrocarbons, by the breaking of carbon-carbon bonds in the precursors.
A promising alternative for the storage and transportation of natural gas
Natural gas is commonly found in the fossil state, along with oil, coal or alone in natural deposits only.
Heat and electricity directly from the Sun
A recent decrease in the cost of photovoltaic (PV) panels resulted in a large number of cases in which solar energy companies could not stay afloat.
The European energy targets for 2030
The European Council has recently approved the 2030 single framework for energy and climate EU, in which they identified the priority objectives to be achieved.
