With NGLs Flowing, Some States Struggle with the Glut

U.S. gas fields are pumping out more natural gas liquids (NGLs) than ever before, and some states are struggling to handle the haul. West Virginia has become a net exporter of propane — though the state is a modest consumer. In addition, ethane has become so abundant that production may need to be curtailed, according […]

Production of NGLs at All-Time High

With new extraction techniques tapping into new gas reserves, natural gas liquids (NGLs) are flowing like never before. In 2010, output hit an all-time high, with more than 2 million barrels produced a day, the Energy Information Administration (EIA) said today.

Which Natural Gas Liquid is That?

From Texas to West Virginia to the New York Stock Exchange, the term “natural gas liquids” has been popping up in recent headlines. These NGLs, which include propane, are a family of chemically-related organic gases, and are part of the haul from the country’s gasfields — or more precisely, the “wet” fields. And what links […]

Aiding the Cleanup, Bacteria Feast on Gulf Coast Gases

After the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig exploded in the Gulf of Mexico this spring, a few million barrels of crude oil came gushing into the water, along with plenty of hydrocarbon gases: propane, ethane, and mostly methane. But unlike the crude cleanup, which has involved long hours of shovels and buckets and sifting machines, nature […]
