Linde Partners With CONSOL For Hybrid Diesel-LNG Drilling Solution

摘要

Linde North America, a member of the gases and engineer- ing company The Linde Group, announced that its solution for using liquefied natural gas (LNG) to fuel power-generating diesel engines (gensets) is getting good grades during testing in southwest Pennsylvania. CONSOL Energy's gas division is conducting the test. A publicly owned Pittsburgh-based producer of coal and natural gas, CONSOL Energy has active exploration and production operations in the Marcellus and Utica shales. CONSOL Energy has been testing the solution in three diesel engine-based gensets to produce power used by drilling rigs.
