Advanced Natural Gas Engineering

Natural gas is a combustible, gaseous mixture of simple hydrocarbon compounds, generally determined in deep underground reservoirs shaped by porous rock. Natural gas is a fossil fuel composed nearly completely of methane, but does contain small amounts of other gases, which includes ethane, propane, butane and pentane. Natural gas is used notably in residential, industrial and commercial applications. The use of natural gasoline is also hastily increasing in electric powered energy era and cooling. Natural gas is the cleanest burning fossil gasoline, generating more often than not carbon dioxide, water vapor and small amounts of nitrogen oxides. The prevailing scientific theory is that natural gas becomes formed thousands and thousands of years in the past whilst plants and tiny sea animals were buried by sand and rock. Layers of mud, sand, rock and plant and animal remember continued to accumulate until the pressure and warmth from the earth became them into petroleum and natural gas. Three forms of rock formations allow the natural gas to shape and acquire. The supply rock is the rock that produces the natural gas. The reservoir rock is the porous rock that the natural gas seeps into because it rises. And the cap rock, or seal, is the layer of very dense rock above the reservoir rock that continues the fuel from leaking to the surface. The reservoir rock and cap rock collectively are referred to as a fuel trap.
