Study

There is still a lot of gas hanging out in the Haynesville Shale; it’s just waiting for the right commodity price and drilling technology to set it free, according to researchers at the Bureau of Economic Geology (BEG) at the University of Texas at Austin.

A new study focused on the Barnett Shale in Texas shows methane emissions from oil/natural gas operations are 90% higher than data in the baseline inventory of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), according to the study’s sponsor, the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF).

A new Cleveland State University (CSU) study predicts that Ohio’s Utica Shale industry could help create 10,505 full-time jobs by 2019, mainly as the result of post-production opportunities in areas such as the supply chain and the petrochemical industry.

Grassland birds are declining across North America, and they are having a particularly tough time in North Dakota with the substantial increase in oil/natural gas development in the Bakken shale, according to a study released Wednesday by the U.S. Department of Interior (DOI).

The six participating planning authorities of the Eastern Interconnection Planning Collaborative (EIPC) — ISO New England, New York ISO, Ontario’s Independent Electricity System Operator, Midcontinent ISO, PJM Interconnection and the Tennessee Valley Authority — have completed a natural gas-electric system interface study as part of a planning effort funded by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).

With natural gas and propane increasingly gaining a foothold as alternative fuel sources for Pennsylvania’s transportation sector thanks to ample supply from the Appalachian Basin’s Marcellus and Utica shales, a new study contends that conversion isn’t just for large fleets anymore.

Options to address New England’s natural gas capacity demand and other options to address the region’s electricity reliability needs through 2030 will be the focus of a study announced Monday by Massachusetts Attorney General (AG) Maura Healey.
