Problem
Oil and gas producers often flare excess natural gas as a byproduct of crude oil production due to logistical or economic constraints in transporting it to market. Routine flaring releases significant amounts of CO2 and methane, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions and environmental pollution. Increasingly stringent regulations and investor focus on ESG performance are pressuring producers to find alternatives to flaring.
Solution
NGON Solutions captures flared natural gas at the wellhead and converts it into usable energy to power on-site mobile data centers for Bitcoin mining. By utilizing gas that would otherwise be flared, NGON eliminates the need for takeaway capacity and creates an immediate, on-site market for the otherwise wasted natural gas. This process reduces methane and CO2 emissions, enhancing ESG performance and potentially generating carbon emissions credits. NGON designs, installs, and operates modular facilities tailored to customer needs and scalable to accommodate varying flare sizes.
Target Audience
The primary customers are upstream and midstream oil and gas companies seeking to reduce emissions, improve ESG performance, and comply with flaring regulations.
