dc.description.abstract |
Natural gas is finding its place at the heart of the energy discussion all over the
world. It is being a cheap and relatively environmentally friendly alternative
energy. The recent emergence of this discussion is due to substantial new discovery
of natural gas in Sri Lanka. As a developing country, Sri Lanka spends an excessive
amount of money for energy. The new discovery of natural gas deposits may be
able to raise the Sri Lankan economy in next decades. To start gas production in the
country should have a plan to consume the gas within the country to gain the best
use of its research. Under the topic of natural gas utilization system for Sri Lanka
the research is carried out to find the best way or the most economical way of
utilizing the natural gas in Sri Lanka comparing scale and the economic factors. The
research is focused on five special areas :Distribution of NG within the country
:Public and private transportation :Power generation: Domestic and industrial use
of NG: Fertilizer manufacturing
Study area of this research on scientific and economic comparisons of above
processes to address this important problem in the presence of uncertainty. This
work presents such a method based on decision analysis of gas prices as well. It
includes the entire well-to-market supply chain, from extraction, conversion, and
transportation, to reconversion at the target market. Finally, it identifies the best gas
transporting method according to the current situation, daily production, how these
effects to the power generation sector in Sri Lanka, propose the most economical
and safe method of using NG for domestic use which suitable for Sri Lankan
context with analyzed data with evidence. |
