Natural gas processing capacity in the Appalachian region has grown dramatically over the past several years as producers try to keep pace with increasing natural gas production in the region. Natural gas processing plays a key role in the natural gas supply chain. Natural gas processors separate dry natural gas from natural gas plant liquids (NGPL) and typically remove water, carbon dioxide, sulfur, and other contaminants, which can cause mechanical issues during pipeline transit. NGPLs—ethane, propane, normal (n-) butane, isobutane, and natural gasoline—are sold at prices higher than those they would receive if marketed at their natural gas heat value.

Putin ratifies east-route gas pipeline agreement with China

(Xinhua) — Russian President Vladimir Putin on Saturday ratified a gas supply agreement with China via the so- called Eastern route.
“The agreement is aimed at strengthening the Russian-Chinese energy cooperation, and defines the main terms of the natural gas supply from Russia to China through the East-Route, including the cross-border section of the gas pipeline across the Amur River ( the Heilongjiang River in China) near Blagoveshchensk (capital of the Amur region in the Russian Far East) and China’s border city of Heihe,” an online official statement said.
The agreement was passed on April 24 by parliament’s lower house, or the State Duma, and approved by the upper chamber namely the Federation Council five days later.
During Putin’s official visit to China last May, the two sides signed a 30-year gas supply contract that will see the East-Route Pipeline start providing China with 38 billion cubic meters of natural gas annually from 2018.

Many of Turkey’s cities faced power cuts due to efficiency measures against rising natural gas demand at the weekend.

Due to cold weather conditions in the country, the demand for natural gas increased, and to balance the natural gas supply, the power supply was also reduced. There were power cuts in several cities, including Istanbul and Ankara, on Dec. 14. Citizens are unhappy with the move and a number of protests were held in different provinces throughout the country after the cuts.
