Journal of Natural Gas Science and Engineering

The objective of the Journal of Natural Gas Science & Engineering is to bridge the gap between the engineering and the science of natural gas by publishing explicitly written articles intelligible to scientists and engineers working in any field of natural gas science and engineering from the reservoir to the market. An attempt is made in all issues to balance the subject matter and to appeal to a broad readership. The Journal of Natural Gas Science & Engineering covers the fields of natural gas exploration, production, processing and transmission in its broadest possible sense. Topics include: origin and accumulation of natural gas; natural gas geochemistry; gas-reservoir engineering; well logging, testing and evaluation; mathematical modelling; enhanced gas recovery; thermodynamics and phase behaviour, gas-reservoir modelling and simulation; natural gas production engineering; primary and enhanced production from unconventional gas resources, subsurface issues related to coalbed methane, tight gas, shale gas, and hydrate production, formation evaluation; exploration methods, multiphase flow and flow assurance issues, novel processing (e.g., subsea) techniques, raw gas transmission methods, gas processing/LNG technologies, sales gas transmission and storage. The Journal of Natural Gas Science & Engineering will also focus on economical, environmental, management and safety issues related to natural gas production, processing and transportation.

Journal of Natural Gas Science & Engineering 的目标是通过发表清晰的文章来弥合天然气工程与科学之间的差距，让从事天然气科学与工程各个领域的科学家和工程师（从储层到市场）都能理解。 在所有期刊中，我们都试图平衡主题并吸引广大读者。Journal of Natural Gas Science & Engineering 涵盖了最广泛意义上的天然气勘探、生产、加工和输送领域。主题包括：天然气的起源和积累；天然气地球化学；气藏工程；测井、测试和评估；数学建模；提高天然气采收率；热力学和相行为、气藏建模和模拟；天然气生产工程；非常规天然气资源的初级生产和增强生产、与煤层气、致密气、页岩气和水合物生产相关的地下问题、地层评估；勘探方法、多相流和流动保障问题、新型加工（例如海底）技术、原料气输送方法、天然气加工/液化天然气技术、销售气输送和储存。Journal of Natural Gas Science & Engineering 杂志还将关注与天然气生产、加工和运输有关的经济、环境、管理和安全问题。
