What technology is involved in gathering or using natural gas?

Hydraulic Fracturing, commonly known as 'fracking'.


Is natural gas expensive to produce?

The cost of producing natural gas can vary depending on factors such as the location of the gas field, the depth at which the gas is extracted, and the technology used. In general, natural gas production costs can be influenced by the complexity of the drilling process and the need for additional treatments to prepare the gas for transportation and use.


What is projected for natural gas futures?

The MIT institute of technology foresees a bright future for natural gas. Natural gas is abundant and one of the cleanest fossil fuels available and with the advancement of technology its use is expected to increase.


Where do you get are natural gas from?

Natural gas is found deep below the earth's surface. Much of it is contained in shale rock. A modern technology called fracking (hydraulic fracturing), which uses high water pressure to break up the shale rock is used to recover natural gas. The natural gas is then refined and used. The United States has an abundance of natural gas that can be recovered. Natural gas is currently used to heat our homes and run home appliances. It has recently been used to power transit buses and trucks. Natural gas buses are becoming very prevalent. Natural gas vehicles are becoming much more common as natural gas is the cleanest burning fuel in existence today.


Is natural gas crude oil?

No natural gas is natural gas.
