What is the purpose of natural gas storage?
Gas storage is principally used to meet load variations. Gas is injected into storage during periods of low demand and withdrawn from storage during periods of peak demand. It is also used for a variety of secondary purposes, including: Balancing the flow in pipeline systems.How do salt caverns work?
The cavern is man-made by drilling a well down into the formation, and pumping water through the completed well to dissolve the salt which returns to the surface as brine. The walls of the cavern are very resilient against reservoir degradation. As the salt cavern is an open vessel, it offers very high deliverability.Why is oil stored in salt caverns?
Salt domes are suited for this purpose because they are dry and geologically stable, allowing crude oil and other petroleum substances to be safety isolated and stored in large quantities.How gas is stored underground?
Natural gas is stored underground primarily in three reservoir types: depleted oil and natural gas fields, salt formations and depleted aquifers. Natural gas may also be stored above ground in refrigerated tanks as liquefied natural gas (LNG).Storengy - Storage in salt cavern
