Natural Gas Production

Natural gas production refers to the extraction of natural gas from underground reservoirs. This gas, primarily composed of methane, is often found alongside oil deposits or in shale formations. The process involves drilling wells into the ground to access the gas. Once extracted, it is processed to remove impurities and then transported through pipelines to homes and businesses for heating, cooking, and electricity generation. Natural gas is considered a cleaner fossil fuel compared to coal and oil, making it an important energy source in the transition to more sustainable energy practices.
