This is the report on the 3rd phase of "Brine String Stability Studies" at McGill University for the period of April 2017 to November 2017. Some recent modifications on experimental setup, results of both theoretical and experimental investigations…
he bedded salt formations located throughout the United States are layered and interspersed with non-salt materials such as anhydrite, shale, dolomite and limestone. The salt layers often contain significant impurities. GRI and DOE have initialized…
A total of 23 potential root causes for large releases of compressed natural gas (CNG) from salt caverns converted from other uses were identified and ranked in terms of relative risk using a modified-Delphi method.
Salt cavern storage of natural gas in many cases offers considerable advantages over conventional reservoir storage due to the characteristic high deliverability of such facilities. Furthermore, salt deposits, suitable for solution mining of gas…
