  • Numerous studies have looked at the economic benefits of developing American oil and natural gas. This study, completed by Black & Veatch for The INGAA Foundation Inc., is the first to highlight the economic benefits – jobs, labor income, value added, economic output and federal, state and local tax generation – of constructing, operating and maintaining the midstream infrastructure needed to transport domestic energy.

  • The increased use of renewable electric power generation, particularly wind, will require electric power systems to provide back-up power to firm the generation from these intermittent sources of electricity. Natural gas-fired generation is a logical, low-cost choice for providing this back-up firming capability. This study evaluates the implications of the increased use of natural gas-fired generation for firming renewable resources for natural gas transportation infrastructure planning and pricing.

  • This INGAA Foundation report forecasts the most critical skills for the natural gas pipeline industry workforce. By identifying positions that are expected to be in short supply and critical functions in the design, construction, operation and maintenance of pipelines, this study locates the highest risk "intersections" of workforce and tasks -- and gives the industry a place to focus efforts to enhance skill development methods and materials for these vital areas.

  • These guidelines were developed using a consensus process by a work group formed by Foundation members. The guidelines draw upon the experience and leading practices of the full breadth of INGAA Foundation members as well as practices used throughout the industry, including the Common Ground Alliance (CGA) Best Practices and API 1166 - Recommended Practice on Excavation Monitoring and Observation. The measures proposed in this document tie to those used as a standard practice in FERC proceedings and industry recommended practices. They constitute minimum measures and nothing prevents the parties from agreeing to additional or more stringent measures.

  • The INGAA Foundation, Inc. retained BBI International (BBI) to analyze the natural gas implications for future alternative fuels plants. This analysis looked at current and future biofuels plants and quantities and estimated thermal energy loads. Increased crop production to supply biofuels plants and the resulting increases in fertilizer requirements was reviewed. This study also evaluated alternative thermal energy sources for biofuels plants and energy efficiency gains that may reduce natural gas demand at biofuels plants. It also addressed the natural gas infrastructure necessary to meet future biofuels production requirements.
