Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation: Russian gas flowing through pipes is 4 times cleaner than American gas in terms of its carbon footprint

In Russia, officials continue to speak out about the frankly ridiculous statement by the head of the US Department of Energy that the Nord Stream 2 pipeline will carry "the dirtiest gas in the world." This statement, as already reported by "Voennoye Obozreniye", was made by the head of the US Department of Energy Jennifer Granholm. According to her, she “expresses the position of the entire ministry when she opposes the construction of the SP-2”. The congressmen liked this position of Granholm.
The words of the head of the US Department of Energy were commented on by Deputy Prime Minister of Russia Alexander Novak, who some time ago served as head of the Ministry of Energy of the Russian Federation.

According to Alexander Novak, if we really compare the chemical composition of Russian and American gas, then Russian gas transported through pipelines has 4 times less carbon footprint per kWh than gas supplied to Europeans from the United States. That is, Russian gas is 4 times cleaner than gas produced in the United States. The Deputy Prime Minister pointed out that this is not his personal speculation, but the data of a number of analytical agencies available in the public domain.

Alexander Novak stressed that this situation is related to production. Most of the gas supplied to Europe from the United States is of shale origin. In this case, production is carried out by hydraulic fracturing.

Novak added that Russian gas is one of the most environmentally friendly sources of energy, and all words that it is supposedly the dirtiest in the world are devoid of any real ground and logic.

Thus, the Russian government official actually made it clear that the US Secretary of Energy was making statements confirming her (Jennifer Granholm's) incompetence.

This is competition in the American way! And here all the methods are good

This is for domestic consumption. Americans do not particularly study the world's media. And very little know the opinion of other parties.

When I heard the news about what Jennifer Granholm blurted out about Russian gas, I laughed for a long time. But there is nothing surprising in this. American officials are all, with rare exceptions, arrogant, arrogant and densely ignorant. They are only interested in how they will look and will be appreciated by the Americans (and even then not by all), and they do not care about the opinion of the rest of the world! "Psaking" they have been founded since childhood!

blurted out Jennifer Granholm about Russian gas

Maybe she expressed herself allegorically? Well, like, the labor of children, slaves or prisoners is used in the extraction. And half-wild Cossack drivers are transported to the chimney on bear sleds ... They will do it, but the people, as they say, gobble up.

According to Alexander Novak, if you really compare the chemical composition

Novak's words, this is also only for domestic consumption. Why not add the carbon footprint of pipe production to the calculation. And they were packed, for example, at SP-2, 10 million 300 thousand tons. One tonne accounts for 500 kg of CO2.

[carstorm 11]

Seriously?))) And the liquefaction plants, for the construction of tankers, equipment for the extraction of a trace do not leave?))) With pipes and not stood nearby)

Have you ever seen an ashamed lawyer?

At our university at the department of mathematics there was one popular anecdote on the topic ...

A new butcher's shop was opened in the city. Well, one man comes in there to see the assortment and prices. In the meantime, he notices a window display where the brains of mathematicians lie. 50re per kilogram. And next to it are the brains of lawyers, 5 rubles per kg.
The man does not eat, asks the seller: - Why is there such a difference in price?
The seller to him: - Do you have any idea how many lawyers have to be hammered per kilogram of brains ?!

The ability to blatantly lie, in order to achieve their goals, is an integral feature of the Anglo-Saxons in general. And in general, in the world of profit and cash, there is no other way. It's in the blood of the west. On the other hand, when everything is fine with you, you can still afford to tell the truth sometimes. But when everything crumbles with you, then there is nothing left but to sink to a total lie, which is designed to discredit opponents in every possible way. As soon as they open their mouths, they will surely lie. Apparently they are doing very badly.

The Yankees believe that their gas is the most democratic. And today competence is very often replaced by devotion and nepotism.

[Real Pilot]

The task here is to promote your business, in this case gas. By getting rid of competitors.

And so it gives a pass to the lured environmentalists: we remember the recent halt in the construction of Nord Stream 2 for a month after the lawsuit of eco-activists in Germany. A cry to intensify the struggle and information support.

And the statement of an American official is the headline of newspapers, websites and news programs. This is "informational content" to a wide audience through controlled media.

Yes, in terms of the total carbon footprint of the mining process (by hydraulic fracturing) and the damage to the environment from chemicals pumped into the ground, water and soil poisoning, American shale gas is more harmful.

But these are "molecules of freedom" (remember the Trump era)! And freedom is never free and requires sacrifices, "democratic gas" against "totalitarian" ... What objections can there be? Who should be kicked out of their jobs in the media or from positions in any European government?

This is how American propaganda works!

It's just that our officials need to move away from these neutral definitions such as "incompetence" and call a spade a spade - "Like du.ra, this is the US Secretary of Energy, and there is nothing to take from her apart from analyzes."

There may be "tricky" mathematics, you can consider the production cycle (production, transportation, etc.), or you can, for example, take the figures for the total methane emissions - now the Arctic zone is strongly "phonated" with methane .... they are no stranger to play this "tricky green math" ...

The voiced preliminary estimate of methane emissions on the shelf of the eastern Arctic seas reaches 100 million tons of methane per year, which, when multiplied by 84 (GWP of methane over a period of 20 years), gives 8,4 Gigatons in CO2 equivalent. This fictitious value will block everything that can be substantiated by absorption by Russian forests, swamps and seas. At the same time, 98% of gas hydrate deposits fall on the shelf of other countries in the middle and tropical latitudes, the methane degassing of which is in no way inferior to the Arctic deposits.

In the event that the "greens" violently rest against green energy, the topic of a hydrogen alternative to natural gas is now actively ventilated, replacing it with hydrogen in the SP-2 pipe for Russia is quite a solvable task.
Here, even Ukraine was roused by the prospect, in case of a transit stop, to fill its GTS with hydrogen and drive it to Europe. Although it is absolutely unclear where they are going to get money for the modernization of the GTS, since Given the high volatility of hydrogen, its losses during transportation through an operating pipe can reach 60%, that is, without modernization, this is a loss for the Ukrainian GTS.

[rocket757]

The question is not about green energy ... this is not a quick business.
The question of what they NOW want to fuck with us, imposing green taxes !!!
By the way, simply by switching to the supply of "clean fuel", i.e. hydrogen, the issue is not resolved. Believe me, the experts have already checked this case, laid it to pieces and found vulnerabilities there, which foreign goons will definitely pay attention to!
The question is simply not solved ... I already wrote above, they are working on this issue !!! but when it comes down to it, it's hard to say.

[Nyrobsky]

Quote: rocket757

The question of what they NOW want to fuck with us, imposing green taxes !!!

So here, too, Russia has its own trump cards in order to fight off green taxes, namely those expanses that are covered with forests that absorb carbon dioxide. There is even an initiative to sell foreign companies the opportunity to personally take part in reforestation after felling and fires, in order to obtain an additional limit on carbon dioxide emissions. Forests are a compensatory advantage.

[rocket757]

Quote: Nyrobsky

namely, those spaces that are covered with forests that absorb carbon dioxide.

The point is that if with intelligence, with all perseverance, well-reasoned, well-organized, lead YOUR offensive against the "green bandits", count extortionists !!! You can, you can get support from many who, too, will be pressed by foreign floors !!!
It is necessary for ALL TOGETHER to get together and give them grabbing ones on their paws.

That is, Russian gas is 4 times cleaner than gas produced in the United States.

Their specialists are well aware of this, but this does not fit into the tactics of the fight against SP-2 (read the Russian gas market). It has become the norm for American officials and politicians to screw up in recent decades, and they do not pay attention to it. satellites will be afraid to fix it anyway.

No, no, JV 2 is almost ready, it will work .... they make bookmarks for future "green" levies / taxes / fines !!! They need real money / resources, I asked them with their green candy wrappers, they can no longer do it! So the bickering / struggle is still ahead and they are PREPARING for it!

... Butt??? Is there any reason?
For them there is the most dermokratic gas and all the rest, bad, dirty by definition.

[From Tomsk]

Russian gas is also a staunch homophobe.

[Kushka]

Alexander Novak stressed that this situation is related to production. Most [/ b] US ​​gas supplied to Europe is of shale origin. In this case, production is carried out by hydraulic fracturing.[i] [/ i]
Here Novak has already poked up - there cannot be a BIG PART of almost a trillion m3 of production
The United States (955 billion m3 per year) is shale in origin.

2018 2019
2 Russia 680,4 703,8
1 USA 868,1 955,1

1 23,1% USA
2 17,0% Russia
Otherwise, it turns out that this BIG part will be equal to all gas produced by Russia.[B]

[Brturin]

Novak - Most of the gas supplied to Europe from the United States is of shale origin. He did not say most of the production in all states ... He has sources of supply for the LNG plants ... In the winter, Texas even had to slow down the LNG plants. there was not enough gas ... There is no "global" gas pipeline system in the states ...

[Kushka]

From what I found: the total gas production in the United States is over 900 billion m3,
from the bottom of the shale there are already more than 300, i.e. third.
European market - over 560 billion, from the bottom Russia 200 + 20 LNG (39%)
further Scandinavians 120 and beyond
- Qatar (32,7 billion cubic meters, only LNG), Algeria (30 billion, pipeline and LNG), USA (17,7 billion, LNG) and Nigeria (15,7 billion LNG).
(17,7 is about nothing - this is the gas production in Ukraine killed twice or three times)
For politicians, if only to butt, at least for an occasion, at least for no reason.
