Natural Gas Power List

1 DOE Fossil Energy

http://www.fe.doe.gov/programs_oilgas.html

Oil and natural gas are the lifeblood of the U.S. economy with new technologies to keep our existing fields pumping, to find new fields with less environmental disturbance, and to deliver cleaner fuels more reliably are the goals of this program from the fossil.

2 DOE - Fossil Energy Strategic Plan

http://www.fe.doe.gov/strategic_plan/festrategy.html

The availability of affordable energy will be essential to our nations economic strength in the coming decades, and major energy forecasts agree that fossil fuels will be the dominant energy source for the foreseeable future though Americans want to continue to enjoy the economic benefits of lower-cost energy, they also want reliable energy supplies that do not harm the environment so advances in fossil fuel technology coupled with the continued readiness of the Strategic Petroleum Rese

3 USGS Gas Hydrates

http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/resources/hydrate.html

Gas hydrates are a chemical compound composed of natural gases (methane) and water that occur in sediments overlain by cold, deep water and little is known about the environmental role, or possible resource potential of this recently discovered phenomenon.

4 A Global Inventory of Gas-Hydrate Occurrences

http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/globalhydrate/

Natural gas hydrate occurs worldwide in oceanic sediment of continental and insular slopes and rises of active and passive margins, in deep-water sediment of inland lakes and seas, and in polar sediment on both continents and continental shelves.

5 Argonne Utilities Research

Argonne National Laboratorys Fossil Generation Technology has capabilities in process and materials research and in economic, engineering, and policy assessment have resulted in more efficient and environmentally benign fossil-generation plants.

6 Energy and Technology Review

The Energy and Technology Review magazine is published by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory to communicate the laboratorys scientific and technological accomplishments.

7 Energy Information Administration

The major energy companies shift toward natural gas production from 1986 through 1999 the share of natural gas in the majors (companies reporting to EIAs Financial Reporting System) worldwide oil and gas production (on an energy-equivalent basis) steadily increased from 33 percent to 46 percent and in the United States the comparable rise was from 38 percent to 52 percent.
