Section 2. Additional reading How Do We Get Natural Gas
The search for natural gas begins with geologists (people who study the structure and processes of the earth). They locate the types of rock that are known to contain gas and oil deposits.
Today their tools include seismic surveys that are used to find the right places to drill wells. Seismic surveys use echoes from a vibration source at the earth’s surface (usually a vibra- ting pad under a truck built for this purpose) to collect infor- mation about the rocks beneath. Sometimes it is necessary to use small amounts of dynamite to provide the vibration that is needed.
Scientists and engineers explore a chosen area by studying rock samples from the earth and taking measurements. If the site seems promising, drilling begins. Some of these areas are on land but many are offshore, deep in the ocean. Once the gas is found, it flows up through the well to the surface of the ground and into large pipelines. Some of the gases that are produced along with methane, such as butane and propane (also known as “by-products”), are separated and cleaned at a gas processing plant. The by-products, once removed, are used in a number of ways. For example, propane can be used for cooking on gas grills.
Because natural gas is colorless, odorless and tasteless, mercaptan (a chemical that has a sulfur like odor) is added before distribution, to give it a distinct unpleasant odor. This serves as a safety device by allowing it to be detected in the atmosphere, in cases where leaks occur.
We can also use machines called «digesters» that turn today’s organic material (plants, animal wastes, etc.) into natural gas. This replaces waiting for thousands of years for the gas to form naturally.
How is Natural Gas Stored and Delivered
The gas companies collect it in huge storage tanks, or underground, in old gas wells. The gas remains there until it is added back into the pipeline when people begin to use more gas, such as in the winter to heat homes.
Natural gas is moved by pipelines from the producing fields to consumers. Since natural gas demand is greater in the winter, gas is stored along the way in large underground stora- ge systems, such as old oil and gas wells or caverns formed in old salt beds. The gas remains there until it is added back into the pipeline when people begin to use more gas, such as in the winter to heat homes.
When chilled to very cold temperatures, approximately - 260 degrees Fahrenheit, natural gas changes into a liquid and can be stored in this form. Because it takes up only 1/600th of the space that it would in its gaseous state, Liquefied natural gas (LNG) can be loaded onto tankers (large ships with several domed tanks) and moved across the ocean to deliver gas to other countries. When this LNG is received, it can be shipped by truck to be held in large chilled tanks close to users or turned back into gas to add to pipelines.
When the gas gets to the communities where it will be used (usually through large pipelines), the gas is measured as it flows into smaller pipelines called “mains”. Very small lines, called “services”, connect to the mains and go directly to homes or buildings where it will be used.
How is Natural Gas Measured
We measure and sell natural gas in cubic feet (volume) or in British Thermal Units (heat content). Heat from all energy sources can be measured and converted back and forth between British thermal units (Btu) and metric units.
One Btu is the heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water one degree Fahrenheit. Ten burning kitchen matches release 10 Btu. A candy bar has about 1000 Btu. One cubic foot of natural gas has about 1031 Btu. A box 10 feet deep, 10 feet long, and 10 feet wide would hold one thousand cubic feet of natural gas.
