Popis: In the past few years, the enormous significance of the largely untapped global natural gas resource has received increasing attention. Initially, gas was viewed as one component of a strategy to moderate the world’s increasing dependence upon liquid petroleum. More recently, the low air pollutant emissions and the relatively low contribution to the so-called ‘greenhouse’ gases which result from the combustion of natural gas compared to those of other fossil fuels, have given the gas option greater emphasis.
