International Journal of Oil, Gas and Coal Technology
Oil, natural gas and coal are the main forms of fossil fuels that contribute to more than 80% of world energy consumption. They will remain as the main sources of energy at least through the most of this century. With increase in demand of energy, economical production of clean, high quality fuels from available resources is more desirable than ever. In addition, biofuels will play a key role when fossil fuel production cannot match world demand. The journal’s objective is to provide a single reference addressing all issues related to fossil fuels and their derived products, especially regarding environmental and economical constraints and biofuels. It is indexed by all major services.
