Report Study Group 2.1 - Basic UGS Activities
The Basic Activity Study has been established for the first time as part of the Triennium work programme 2000 - 2003 of WOC 2. The Study Group 2.1 Basic UGS Activities continued this work within the Triennium 2003 – 2006, developing a new improved study. This study has been developed by a study group consisting of members of 12 countries. Results are to be presented during the World Gas Conference 2006 in Amsterdam.
The world wide database on UGS facilities, including data about individual storage facilties in the world, and the graphical presentation of these data has been improved further. The geo-referenced presentation within the UGS World Map is available in metric and English units, including UGS data from the USA and Canada. A Glossary of relevant technical UGS terms has been developed and trends in the UGS business are discussed in the report.
The database and its visualisation covers the major part of the study.
Based on the information collected in the Basic UGS Activities Study an installed working gas volume of some 333 Gm³ is operated in about 610 storage facilities all over in the world. This working capacity is presented in the following chart by regions.
The following table presents a summary of the installed working gas volume (106 m³) by nations:
This front page just gives a survey and hints. More information and details can be derived from the report for further studies and analysis.
