Researchers are conducting critical infrastructure modeling and assessment to improve public safety. They analyze the connections between infrastructures, such as traffic lights and power plants, to anticipate potential failures. The project creates data visualizations to help policymakers understand the big picture.
Thomas Wynn is creating a three-dimensional map of West Virginia's subsurface using well cuttings from 200 wells. He aims to find oolites that contain natural gas and better understand the transition from greenhouse to ice-age conditions during the Mississippian Age. The study has significant implications for accessing natural gas rese...
A pioneering liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility has been unveiled in California, featuring a patented technology that dramatically reduces LNG plant size and cost. The new facility can be easily transported and placed close to clean-fuel customers, providing emergency services and faster gas service recovery.
Researchers created a new barium hexaaluminate (BHA) catalyst that allows for low-temperature combustion and high-temperature thermal stability, reducing pollutants from natural gas power plants. The catalyst can withstand temperatures up to 1300°C and has been shown to be stable in the presence of water vapor and other poisons.
The University of Wyoming's Institute for Energy Research has developed technology to evaluate deep natural gas resources, which is gaining interest from Asian nations. This technology helps understand fluid-flow relationships and pressure, unlocking hydrocarbon resources in deeper parts of sedimentary basins.
