Bcf – billion cubic feet (of natural gas) Bcf/d – billion cubic feet per day (of natural gas) Bcfe – billion cubic feet (of natural gas equivalent) BD – bursting disc; BDF – below derrick floor; BDL – bit data log; BDV – blowdown valve; BGL – borehole geometry log; BGL – below ground level (used as a datum for depths in a well)
The heating value depends on the source of gas that is used and the process that is used to liquefy the gas. The range of heating value can span ±10 to 15 percent. A typical value of the higher heating value of LNG is approximately 50 MJ/kg or 21,500 BTU/lb. [2] A typical value of the lower heating value of LNG is 45 MJ/kg or 19,350 BTU/lb.
Natural gas burning on a gas stove Burning of natural gas coming out of the ground. Natural gas (also called fossil gas, methane gas, or simply gas) is a naturally occurring mixture of gaseous hydrocarbons consisting primarily of methane (95%) [1] in addition to various smaller amounts of other higher alkanes.
Pipe marking on a natural gas pipe. In the process industry, chemical industry, manufacturing industry, and other commercial and industrial contexts, pipe marking is used to identify the contents, properties and flow direction of fluids in piping. It is typically carried out by marking piping through labels and color codes.
A liquefied natural gas storage tank or LNG storage tank is a specialized type of storage tank used for the storage of Liquefied Natural Gas. LNG storage tanks can be found in ground, above ground or in LNG carriers. The common characteristic of LNG Storage tanks is the ability to store LNG at the very low temperature of -162 °C (-260 °F).
A natural-gas processing plant in Aderklaa, Austria. Natural-gas processing is a range of industrial processes designed to purify raw natural gas by removing contaminants such as solids, water, carbon dioxide (CO 2), hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S), mercury and higher molecular mass hydrocarbons to produce pipeline quality dry natural gas [1] for pipeline distribution and final use.

According to the standard defined by the International Energy Agency, it corresponds in average to 38.2 petajoules (1.06 × 10 10 kWh) of energy in the case of Russian natural gas and 41.4 petajoules (1.15 × 10 10 kWh) of energy in the case of Qatar's natural gas. [1]
