Small scale technologies for using associated gas

Carbon Limits works with public authorities, private companies, finance institutions and non-governmental organizations to reduce emissions of greenhouse gas emissions from energy sector operations.

This report examines small-scale technologies designed to utilize associated gas, which is often flared or vented during oil production. It evaluates various solutions, including gas-to-power, gas-to-liquids, and compressed natural gas (CNG) systems, focusing on their technical feasibility, economic viability, and environmental benefits. The study aims to provide oil and gas operators with insights into implementing these technologies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and enhance resource efficiency.
