Natural gas - it is the component without which today it is simply impossible to imagine not only life, but also the economy of entire countries.This type of fuel is mined underground, as well as oil.Because of these natural resources similar origins, often their fields are close by.In other words, close to the oil and may find "natural gas".The main component of natural gas - methane.However, it includes also some hydrocarbons such as propane, butane, ethylene and so on. The higher the methane content, the better will be natural gas.The origin of the gas is uniquely biological.He formed many tens of thousands of years ago from the remains of animals and plants at temperatures above 175 degrees Celsius.
cost of gas - one of the factors that affects the economy, the welfare of citizens, the level of inflation and the normal operation of the industry.What affects it?The cost of gas is determined by the demand for this type of energy.Naturally, the higher it is, the more expensive will cost "blue fuel".Also, exporters of this energy can raise or reduce prices to exert political pressure on those States that have to buy it.Moreover, the cost of oil and gas usually interconnected.But recently there has been a slow shift away from this "rule."After gas reserves much more than deposits of "black gold."Naturally, the quality of the energy source largely determines its value.The higher the percentage of methane in it, the more expensive it is.Of course, influenced by the presence or absence of its oil fields in a particular state.For example, the cost of gas in the US is among the lowest worldwide.One reason for this is that in North America there are a large number of underground shale fuel.Moreover, the US is one of the leading exporters of this type of energy source.
But what will affect the cost of gas for the population?Last but not least - certain infrastructure.It is interesting how a particular location away from the main gas pipeline.If residents have to use self-contained gas supply, it is clearly reflected in its price.
In turn, the price of gas affects the price of transport and goods.If natural gas becomes more expensive, then the price of some products on the market will also increase.The fact that the cost of the gas affects the results of the production process.In what way?If enterprises buy energy source at a higher price, then they have to increase the cost of manufactured goods, not to be at a loss.As a result, it can hit the pocket of the consumer.The first fly prices of products and production of chemical energy.The cost of gas greatly affects the main consumers of these resources.And they are: the company's heat and electric power, chemical industry facilities.Sure, the price increase for natural gas for the population significantly.Wholesale gas prices in Russia now ranges from 3440 to 3784 rubles per thousand cubic meters.It is governed by FTS Order.
