全球非常规天然气市场报告(2015-2019年)
Unconventional gas is a natural resource found trapped in coal beds, shale blocks, and tight sands. These gas resources are different from conventional energy in terms of reservoirs, geographical areas, and accumulations of natural gas. Different techniques are applied to extract unconventional gas depending on the field and type of gas to be extracted. A common method is hydraulic fracturing, where a hole is drilled into the rock and large amounts of water are injected at high pressure along with sand and other chemicals to create cracks in the rock. The cracks, when opened, will free the trapped gas allowing it to flow to the wellhead. The three types of unconventional gases are listed in the exhibit below.

全球天然气存储市场报告(2015-2019年)
Natural gas storage involves the accumulation of natural gas in storage facilities for future consumption. The purpose of storage is to meet the fluctuating energy demand during peak and off-peak seasons. Generally, natural gas is stored during the off-peak season and utilized during the peak season. This reduces the demand and supply gap and increases the reliability of supply.

全球浮动液化天然气市场报告(2015-2019年)
Floating LNG refers to a system in which a set of operations and processes are performed for the development of offshore-based natural gas reserves. These systems are mainly used for the production, liquefaction, storage, and transfer of LNG from offshore gas reserves to onshore areas. The floating LNG facility produces LNG directly on the offshore floating system, where it undergoes different processes, is stored in vessels or tanks, and is finally transported to the land. The entire value chain of the floating LNG system is shorter than that of the common onshore LNG system. All the equipment, facilities, and other processes in a floating system take place in a single enclosed structure thereby using just one-third of the space required by a normal LNG system. The use of floating LNG systems eliminates the need for long distance pipelines and onshore infrastructure and therefore ultimately reduces the disturbance to the surrounding environment and minimizes the development costs to a large extent.

全球液压泵市场报告(2015-2019年)
Hydraulic pumps are mechanical devices that convert mechanical energy into hydraulic or hydrostatic energy. They operate on the displacement principle, wherein a vacuum is created at the pump outlet, inducing a force which drives the liquid from the reservoir into the inlet line. With the aid of further mechanical action, the liquid is transferred to the outlet and eventually into the hydraulic system. These systems are used in hydraulic drive systems, which can either be hydrostatic or hydrodynamic. A hydraulic machine, together with a pump, performs tasks such as lifting, lowering, closing, opening, or rotating components. It is a source of power for dynamic machines and equipment.
