Transcripción del abstract original del autor: In the view of depletion of major developed natural gas fields in the period up to 2030 will be observed redistribution of reserves. Major natural gas reserves will be located in the distant from the existing gas transmission network system remote and harsh climatic regions, where there are no major HC consumption markets. Expenditures for gas transmission by the gas pipelines for the unit of energy are extremely high, therefore organization of gas transmission to the consumption locations demands huge investments for construction of the trunk pipelines and compressor stations. As per these reasons during the past decade in the energy-fuel complex underway has been the continuous discussion and search for natural gas transportation options alternative to the pipeline transportation to the consumption locations. Such main alternatives considered in Russia include gas liquefaction at the production site and liquid products manufacturing from gas as per GTL technology-motor fuels, oils, paraffins or DME. In this work is made the comparison of technical and economic parameters of schemes of natural gas transmission by a trunk pipeline, as well as during its liquefaction and its conversion into synthetic fuels with its further transportation by tankers. The work views the advantages of GTL projects as compared to LNG and gas pipelines and shows the principal possibility of low-pressure fields operation with GTL technology.
