Fundamentals of Natural Gas: An International Perspective

Cleaner and more versatile than other hydrocarbons, natural gas has never had a brighter future. In this new edition of Fundamentals of Natural Gas, author Vivek Chandra thoroughly explains the massive evolution of natural gas and LNG, from technology advances and vast new reserves. As forecasts of worldwide consumption increase dramatically, this “prince of hydrocarbons” is the natural choice for electric power, heating, and as an industry feedstock.

Features of the Second Edition:

Growth of unconventional shale gas technology and production
Rise of LNG export projects from the United States
International adoption of gas-on-gas pricing
Impact of LNG mega-projects and the adjusting economics of these ventures
