“spending hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars every year for oil, much of it from the Middle East, is just about the single stupidest thing that modern society could possibly do. It’s very difficult to think of anything more idiotic than that.”

What are Natural Gas Liquids?

Natural Gas Liquids or "NGL" are those hydrocarbons in natural gas that are separated from the gas as liquids through the process of absorption, condensation, adsorption, or other methods in gas processing or cycling plants. Typically, these liquids consist of propane and heavier hydrocarbons and are commonly referred to as lease condensate, natural gasoline, and liquefied petroleum gas.

Natural Gas Liquids include natural gas plant liquids (primarily ethane, propane, butane, isobutane, and lease condensate (primarily pentanes produced from natural gas at lease separators and field facilities.

The downstream sector usually refers to crude oil refineries and the selling and distribution of natural gas and products derived from crude oil. These products include Liquefied Petroleum Gas or "LPG," gasoline, jet fuel, diesel fuel, and other fuel oils, as well as asphalt and petroleum coke.

Midstream Assets include those assets and services that link the supply side of the value chain within the industry, to the demand side for for these energy commodities.

The Midstream Assets and the Midstream sector in the bridge between the energy producers and the energy end-users and - therefore, can only be as strong as the weakest link or bridge within the midstream oil and gas sector.

The Upstream Oil and Gas segment is a term that refers to the searching, drilling and production of crude oil and natural gas. The Upstream Oil and Gas segment is also known as the "exploration and production" or "E&P" segment.

The Upstream Oil and Gas segment includes; exploring for potential underground (or underwater) oil and natural gas fields (or reservoirs), drilling of exploratory wells, and operating/producing the oil and natural gas wells that "pay" with crude oil and/or natural gas.

Terminalling and Storage is a term used in the oil and natural gas industry that refers to the midstream natural gas gathering and crude oil gathering, pipeline, transportation and storage facilities. Terminals are facilities where natural gas and crude oil is transferred to or from storage, transportation network (other pipelines or trucks) for distribution, refining (for crude oil) or gas processing (for natural gas). Terminals are an integral and key component in the natural gas and crude oil to end-users by providing natural gas storage and crude oil storage, as well as inventory management, distribution and gas processing and blending to achieve "pipeline quality gas" and specific crude oil grades.
