| Shell confirms doubling of global energy demand in 2050 |
| 2010-12-08 Marrakech, particularly the morning Said Mounir Bou Aziz, Deputy Prime develop new opportunities and liquefied natural gas in Shell International in the Middle East and North Africa that by the year 2050 Will double global energy demand, driven by increased levels of demographic growth and economic growth, especially for developing economies. This came at the opening of the eighth symposium on oil and natural gas in the basin of the Mediterranean and the Maghreb, in the city of Marrakesh, Morocco. The Bouaziz shed light on the opportunities provided by the natural gas is clean-burning within the global and regional contexts and warned the audience for most countries, the use of more gas in power generation to ensure more value and cost less than what it can lead to achieve the goal of reducing emissions in this decade. He added that the gas is a fossil fuel with a combustion cleaner and that the percentage of carbon dioxide emitted from the laboratories of modern refinery gas (combined cycle) account for half of the percentage emitted from the coefficient of coal modern and 70-60 percent lower than those emitted by the coefficient of coal (steam turbines ), which is still hundreds of them under the operation today. He said: that in addition to the gas plants can provide energy flexible backup be used to exchange in the case of the use of electricity generated from wind power or solar energy, because the output power from burning gas can adapted more easily than the energy output resulting from the combustion of coal or nuclear plant, for example. According to Mr. Bouaziz, Vice President of the Shell company's regional headquarters in Dubai / the gas is abundant, according to the International Energy Agency. He / gas equivalent resources available technically 250 years of current production, has raised the supply of gas increasing, with new pipelines and the increasing globalization of the LNG market is the flexibility of supply and price stability over the long term /. And Shell on projects in Qatar, said Bouaziz soon we will be able, through the Pearl GTL project or the Pearl GTL, the largest run of station to convert gas to liquids in the world. This plant will produce enough fuel for the GTL supply more than 160,000 cars a day and enough of the essential oils per year of synthetic lubricants to industry for more than 225 million vehicles. He said: It is, in fact, "gas is the least expensive option and more flexibility to generate energy. It gives countries that use it a real alternative to compensate for the deficit that you know other sources of energy" And said Mounir Bou Aziz: It's there in the Middle East and North Africa more than 40 percent of world reserves of gas this with an eye to new discoveries, it is certain that the region is playing a pivotal role in the global market for liquefied natural gas, and to continue to provide gas supplies through pipelines within the region and to Europe. He said: What made import liquefied natural gas is the most widespread and relatively low cost and speed of floating gas to restore its shape and storage. It is expected to double imports of liquefied natural gas by 2030, making the import of liquefied natural gas a real solution and available for North Evrivia. He noted Mounir Bou Aziz told participants of the seminar that by the year 2012, natural gas will represent more than 50 percent of the first production for Shell, which is likely to evolve more later. |
| Shell Lubricants has revamped its Shell LubeAnalyst oil analysis program, which is designed to help customers improve equipment and vehicle reliability and reduce maintenance costs. The upgraded Shell LubeAnalyst program is engineered to provide an online user interface that offers a worldwide sample history and failure trends on various types of equipment and engine types. The Shell LubeAnalyst program offers software that is designed to allow customers to view and track test results and view offline management information. Used-oil samples provided through the Shell LubeAnalyst program can reveal whether contaminants such as water, coolant, fuel or dirt are getting into the oil, indicating head-gasket leaks, leaking fuel injectors or other problems. Spectrochemical analysis detects the presence of wear metals in the oil. The analysis also measures the oil’s viscosity, base number (reserve alkalinity) and fuel- soot level. Epoxy Oilserv will begin this program for Nigeria clients, this was disclosed by the operations manager Theodore Okpala while speaking to Epoxy oil news crew 13th January 2011 he said plans to set up 3 ultra-modern lubricant test laboratories with state of the art equipment is in place for 3 Nigeria cities including Port Harcourt, Lagos and Abuja (mainly for the minning and construction customers) |
