Colorado School of Mines has announced the establishment of the Unconventional Natural Gas Institute (UNGI) for the upstream research and development of natural gas, which is clean-burning, helps minimize greenhouse gas emissions, and is in great supply in the United States.
The UNGI builds on the school’s already significant research in the area of unconventional natural gas resources, as well as its strong partnerships with industry and government. The institute’s interdisciplinary efforts are directed by Jennifer Miskimins of the Mines Petroleum Engineering Department.
