tac,
if O&G production remains the same but the mini-t is online, then flaring will decrease
if O&G production increases, then it can only do so by the amount of gas that the mini-t consumes
gas monetisation does 2 things,
1) it creates a new revenue stream
2) it allows increased production of oil and gas - the excess gas being consumed by the mini-turbine
You say "The whole point in their installation is to take some of the gas away from the flare and that in turn will allow the increase in oil production FACT" - no, not a fact. The main point of gas monetisation is to increase oil production which means more gas, this gas cannot be flared as the site already flares up to the 10tonnes per day limit, it's the excess that will be diverted into the mini-turbine
In what scenario does the mini-t "decrease the tonnage being incinerated, allowing the oil production to be increased" ?
