Time savings and a method of ensuring that environmental rules match or exceed international standards are promised by an overhaul of resource industry supervision in Canada’s chief natural gas-, oil- and coal-producing jurisdiction.

Years of research, development and production line changes will be needed to clean up the oilsands by replacing the current method of boiling them into flowing with steam heat, according to new projections by Alberta’s Energy Resources Conservation Board (ERCB).

As a marathon hunt continues for cases of a Canadian pipeline plague, an additional effort aims to catch up with a U.S. method of easily and rapidly distributing hazard information.

More than two years after a spectacularly expensive takeover called attention to Alberta’s vast Duvernay geological formation, drilling is beginning — and the deep shale target is turning out to be expensive to hit.

State-regulated local natural gas distribution companies would receive 9% of the emission credit allowances for free under an allocation method proposed by House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Henry Waxman (D-CA) and Rep. Edward Markey in their draft legislation to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide.

FERC last Tuesday approved Cameron LNG LLC’s request to move up an interim expansion of its liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal facility, which is under construction in Hackberry, LA.

An industry-touted method for revaporizing liquefied natural gas (LNG) aboard offshore terminal facilities “substantially increases the degree of impact on the marine environment,” particularly fish larvae and eggs, said federal marine officials in a draft “best practices” report, which was offered as guidance to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in analyzing LNG terminal applications.

AGL Resources, the Department of Energy and Conversion Gas Imports LP say they have discovered a new method of regasifying liquefied natural gas (LNG) that will speed up the delivery process and improve cost efficiencies at a time when the number of proposed LNG import terminals in the United States has grown to more than 30.
