Scumbria Re..If you drive across West Texas at night, you can see the refinery gas flares from 20 or 30 miles away. They are immense. I know that. I have been to texas on business trips and one of my sons lives in San Antonio. I didn't say all of the wells were capped already. I said that there was an article in Business week on how some companies were starting to save and use the gas because the higher prices started to make that economical. There is no practical way to ship gas from Alaska. Gas is transported via pipelines. Not true I think. A company in europe patented a method to liquefy and transport the gas. I believe they were using a mini refinery which could be transported to the oil fields. I don't believe they were producing LNG either. It sounded like they were producing a variant of gasoline with the gas which then could be mixed with the other crude; but as it has been several yrs. I can't be sure. Also BW doesn't usually get into a technical discussion. The articles are usually about how companies can make profits using new technologies.
