Favorable geologic environments exist in many locations, and the risk of cost overruns or unproductive expense can be minimized through a stepwise planning and design procedure. Design and construction techniques for underground structures are well precedented with numerous successful cavern projects completed for powerhouses, military purposes, and mines. A mined cavern storage system has been operating in an abandoned coal mine in Leyden, Colorado, for over 20 years, with another planned by a consortium of gas companies for the New York City area. We look forward to the day when mined cavern storage is recognized as a viable option during the planning of a gas storage system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe manual begins with general geologic siting criteria, and proceeds to the various types of cavern storage systems, and then to a discussion of environmental and permitting requirements of the facility. Finally, the manual guides the reader through the stages of design and construction and presents the fundamentals of underground engineering.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PRCI Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44367621029966,"sku":"15340","price":495.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/prci-store.myshopify.com\/products\/l51456-design-guidelines-for-mined-cavern-storage-of-natural-gas-1","provider":"PRCI Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
