Results for tag: "Associated Gas"

Associated gas is a type of natural gas found in oil fields. It is produced as a by-product of oil extraction and is often referred to as ‘solution gas’. Associated gas is typically composed of methane, ethane, propane, butane, and pentane. It is often found in large quantities and is a valuable source of energy. Associated gas is used in a variety of ways, including electricity generation, industrial processes, and heating. It is also used as a feedstock for the production of petrochemicals. In some cases, associated gas is flared off, which is a process of burning off the gas in order to reduce the pressure in the oil field. The associated gas market is highly competitive, with many companies vying for a share of the market. Companies in the market include ExxonMobil, Chevron, Royal Dutch Shell, BP, Total, and Eni.
