Abstract

In oil producing countries (i.e Nigeria), with increased production of oil, the quantity of associated natural gas is increasing. Although, major portion of this gas is committed to various consumers like fertileser corporation, LPG stations, power stations etc., a substantial quantity of the gas is flared due to lack of ready market.
