It was used for power at the offshore facilities, reinjected into the ground to maintain reservoir pressure or increase oil, and a small amount was flared. 2. A small amount of NGLs are included with oil production, but there is no commercial production of NGLsin Newfoundland and Labrador. 3. Newfoundland and Labrador’s sales-quality natural gas resourceis estimated by...
