Recently, the natural gas is expected to be an environmentally friendlier energy and alternative to the nuclear energy. In the social situation, many oil and gas and engineering companies had studied FEEDs (Front End of Engineering Designs) of FLNG (LNG-FPSO) expected to be a new production system for offshore natural gas development in the near future. The FLNG system is no proven technology and there is no FLNG operation, which can make it difficult to design FLNG. Furthermore, it is noted that FLNG designers can’t get enough information for the design. Gas explosion is the technical problems for the topside facilities of FLNG. The objective of this paper is to study the gas explosion for the FLNG design.

Abstract. North American leaders recently committed to reducing methane emissions from the oil and gas sector, but information on current emissions from upstream oil and gas developments in Canada are lacking. This study examined the occurrence of methane plumes in an area of unconventional natural gas development in northwestern Canada. In August to September 2015 we completed almost 8000 km of vehicle-based survey campaigns on public roads dissecting oil and gas infrastructure, such as well pads and processing facilities. We surveyed six routes 3–6 times each, which brought us past over 1600 unique well pads and facilities managed by more than 50 different operators. To attribute on-road plumes to oil- and gas-related sources we used gas signatures of residual excess concentrations (anomalies above background) less than 500 m downwind from potential oil and gas emission sources. All results represent emissions greater than our minimum detection limit of 0.59 g s−1 at our average detection distance (319 m). Unlike many other oil and gas developments in the US for which methane measurements have been reported recently, the methane concentrations we measured were close to normal atmospheric levels, except inside natural gas plumes. Roughly 47 % of active wells emitted methane-rich plumes above our minimum detection limit. Multiple sites that pre-date the recent unconventional natural gas development were found to be emitting, and we observed that the majority of these older wells were associated with emissions on all survey repeats. We also observed emissions from gas processing facilities that were highly repeatable. Emission patterns in this area were best explained by infrastructure age and type. Extrapolating our results across all oil and gas infrastructure in the Montney area, we estimate that the emission sources we located (emitting at a rate > 0.59 g s−1) contribute more than 111 800 t of methane annually to the atmosphere. This value exceeds reported bottom-up estimates of 78 000 t of methane for all oil and gas sector sources in British Columbia. Current bottom-up methods for estimating methane emissions do not normally calculate the fraction of emitting oil and gas infrastructure with thorough on-ground measurements. However, this study demonstrates that mobile surveys could provide a more accurate representation of the number of emission sources in an oil and gas development. This study presents the first mobile collection of methane emissions from oil and gas infrastructure in British Columbia, and these results can be used to inform policy development in an era of methane emission reduction efforts.

The Marcellus Shale is one of the largest natural gas fields in the world and has been the site of a massive natural gas development effort involving hundreds of oil and gas companies. With the onslaught of the “shale revolution,” developers moved into states like Pennsylvania and began drilling/completing natural gas wells by the hundreds. This development occurred so rapidly that attention to issues such as wellbore natural gas intrusion was not initially given the priority it demanded in all cases. This led to instances of alleged natural gas migration and impacts to groundwater supplies in several areas of the region. Although there has been an onslaught ofevaluations geared toward the study of groundwater contamination, the author has researched the natural gaswells themselves. Based on thousands of wellbore integrity studies in the Marcellus and other worldwide shale regions, this paper will summarize the forensic processes, analysis methods, and approaches used in assessing wellbore integrity as part of a natural gas migration investigation. The paper will also present details that pertain to remedial alternatives and approaches to wells requiring attention.

The Social

To many social theoreticians, the population explosion, particularly in the developing nations presents a crippling threat to their developmental pro¬cesses. Their argument's validity rests mainly on the assumption that expected economic progress is swallowed up by unbalanced rise of numbers in the population. The book being reviewed deals mainly with this subject matter and is divided into two parts, each containing three articles contributed by various researchers. Part one, 'The Social context of Fertility Decision' is focused on analyzing the role of factors affecting fertility at the micro-level decision making process. The first article 'Fertility decision in rural India' by Vinod Jainath, examines the applicability to rural India of various models of the process of fertility decision making and finds most of these wanting with respect to the Indian social situation. While analyzing the fertility patterns of Rural India, he points out the positive need for larger families among the poor small farmers mainly due to labour supply considerations. The author argues that unemployment and under¬employment actually motivate the poor to have more children as it better ensures their economic security in their old age. As the chances of gaining employ¬ment for their offspring diminish, they are induced to increase the total number of children in order that atleast one will be able to support them. Thus a vicious circle of poverty arises in large families because of each of the parents wanting to increase their children's chances of employment by ultimately reducing the overall employment opportunities even further and exacerbating their poverty.
