Technology | Syntroleum Fuels | Stranded Gas Opportunities

Record high crude prices, skyrocketing energy demand, the need to maintain stable supplies, and governments enacting stricter air-quality standards have spurred intense interest in clean, commercial-ready fuels.

Yet, one abundant resource sits virtually untapped. It is estimated there are 3,000 trillion cubic feet of stranded natural gas around the world with the potential of creating several hundred billion barrels of oil equivalent. That is comparable to the oil reserves of Saudia Arabia and represents billions of dollars in un-recovered assets. Syntroleum has the answer for an energy-hungry world.

Gas Reserves Across the Globe

The gas-to-liquids (GTL) market in Qatar alone is approximately one third of the total current Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) market.

Experts estimate that middle distillate diesel fuel demand is growing at approximately 2.5 percent per year worldwide, and that four years growth will equal the entire size of the LNG market.
