The Underground Storage of Natural Gas: A Guide (document)
"The Underground Storage of Natural Gas: A Guide" explains how natural gas is stored beneath the earth’s surface to ensure a steady supply for consumers. Natural gas is injected into specially designed underground formations like depleted oil or gas fields, aquifers, or salt caverns during periods of low demand, and withdrawn during high demand. This method provides a reliable way to manage seasonal fluctuations and maintain energy security. The guide covers storage techniques, locations, safety practices, and the importance of underground storage in balancing supply and demand efficiently and safely.
