The agency’s administrator said the program “does nothing to improve air quality.”
The project is expected to recover up to 300 MMscf/D of flared gas. Plans call for the recovered gas to be converted into treated dry gas, liquefied petroleum gas, and condensate for domestic use and export.
This research aims to harness the advanced capabilities of artificial intelligence, specifically deep learning and large language models, to develop a comprehensive system for detecting and explaining oil spills.
