Linden, H R

A review of world energy sources and supplies examines the economics of industrial applications as well as marketing strategies. Because of the abundance and pervasiveness of natural gas, the author concludes that it is both possible and desirable to decouple gas fr,m oil in the commercial markets. With new gas technology developments, gas can already compete with coal for central power production. As the technology improves, reserves that are currently uneconomical to develop will become available.
