It is a natural gas and conventional oil electric power generating station located on the North Shore of Long Island in Fort Salonga, New York. [1] The facility was built by the Long Island Lighting Company (LILCO) in stages between 1967 and 1977, [2] and since August 2007 it has been owned and operated by National Grid USA.
Three-phase separators separate the well fluids into its three constituent phases: oil, gas and produced water. Oil may be transferred by road or rail tanker or by pipeline to an oil refinery. Gas may be used on the site to run gas engines to produce electricity or can be piped to local users. [3] Excess gas is burned in a ground flare.
In a fossil fuel power plant the chemical energy stored in fossil fuels such as coal, fuel oil, natural gas or oil shale and oxygen of the air is converted successively into thermal energy, mechanical energy and, finally, electrical energy. Each fossil fuel power plant is a complex, custom-designed system.
Energy Transfer will provide up to 450,000 million British thermal units per day of firm natural gas through its Oasis Pipeline to CloudBurst's campus outside of San Marcos, Texas, contingent upon ...
Energy Transfer LP is an American company engaged in the pipeline transportation, storage, and terminaling for natural gas, crude oil, NGLs, refined products and liquid natural gas. It is organized under Delaware state laws and headquartered in Dallas, Texas .
These are usually fuelled by diesel oil, heavy oil, natural gas, and landfill gas. Microturbines, Stirling engine and internal combustion reciprocating engines are low-cost solutions for using opportunity fuels, such as landfill gas, digester gas from water treatment plants and waste gas from oil production.

Energy development is the field of activities focused on obtaining sources of energy from natural resources. [citation needed] These activities include the production of renewable, nuclear, and fossil fuel derived sources of energy, and for the recovery and reuse of energy that would otherwise be wasted.
In September, the sub-sea pipeline, linking the Sable Island fields to Goldboro gas plant 225 km (140 mi) away, was completed. In November, construction of the fractionation plant and gas plant were completed and the first natural gas was recovered a month later offshore. First gas shipped to market in January 2000.
