Pe 7 aro SOIREE. Tbe Casper Daily Cribune GAG WOULD BE SAVED IF PRICE WERE ADJUSTED Increase Advocated as Means of. Conservation; Carbon Black Manufacture in Country * Defended by Organization. WASHINGTON, July 21.—The Na- tional Natural Gas Conservation com- mittee, comprising ten members, of which Dr. Frederick G. Cottrell, direc- tor of the bureau of mines, is chair- man, and which is composed of rep resentatives of public service commis- sions, state geologists, natural gas producers and natural gas experts, have been working for several mouths in an endeavor to standardize methods of production, transmission and util- ization of natural gas, At a recent meeting, held in this city, representatives of the public serv- ice commission of Pennsylvania, New York, West Virginia, Ohio and adjoin- ing states were invited by the secre- tary of the interior to express their ideas on natural gas conseryation, with the view of finding a definite standard for the guigance of various commissions, courts and other legal and legislative bodies dealing with natural gas subjects. The first set of resolniions passed by the National Natural Gas Conser- vation @ommittee were adopted at a recent meeting in the Bureau of Mines building, Pittsburgh, Pa. One of the most strikng resolutions passed at this meeting reads: “The a fair value placed on natural gas in the field will immediately start conservation meth- ods in the drilling and operations of} gas wells and the saving and delivery of easing head gas from oil wel In other w » this resolution means that the waste of natural gas in the field has heen caused by the low price for the gas, and that a higher price for the gas, making the gas worth saving, would result in im- proved methods of control in the pro-; duction, as well as to increase the prospecting for gas In the eastern states. The remarkable point in the resolutions is that the conservative bu- reau of mines has recommended an in-| creased price for natural gas as being a veal conservation measure. The other point in the resolutions, } perfectly plain to natural gas men, | might not be so clear to the gencral public. saving and delivery of casing head gas from oil wells.” Casing head gas, of course, is natural gas—but it might more aptly be termed “gasoline gas.” This casing head gas, which is the gas accumulative@above the oil in oil wells, is decidedly rich in gasoline, as} much as twelve gallons per 1,000 eubic feet of the highest-grade gasoline be- ing extracted from this casing head gas. That is the reason why the bu- reau of mines calls attention to the de- sirability of saving this gas. In this connection, this national con- servation committee also approved of the manufacture of carbon black from natural gas after the gasoline had been removed and when modérn’ and improved methods were used in ex- tracting the earbon black. A report of the sub-committee on “Conservation,”’ of the National Natu- ral Gas Conservation committee, and presented before the annual conven- tion of the Natural Gas Association of America at Buffalo, N. Y., by W. L. McCloy, chairman, read: “If the gas is developed in a region distant from marketing facilities the one use to whieh the gas can be put is in the commercial undertaking of natural gas gasoline recovery and car- bon black manufacture. The owner of the well is entitled to a return on his investment and he should be permitted under the conditions to utilize his gas in the most profitable and generally beneficial wa: + Gasoline and carbon black are modities for which there is a c erable and increasing demand by public, and if there ar ties which the domestic the » no opportuni- consumption of natural gas as sources of light and heating power offer, then the utiliza- tion of it for gasoline recovery and carbon black manufacture is the high- est form of conservation.” It is interesting to note, along this line, that one single gas well of 25,- 000,040 cubic feet adlawed to blow into the air will, wilhin the same time, waste more natural gas than is sumed by all the printing establish- ments of the United States when e: verted into carbon black.
