Reply to comment by Creepy-Ad2944 in Eversource CEO asks Biden to take emergency action on New England natural gas supply by OmarLittleFinger

Many oil wells burn their natural gas at the well, because they don't have the capture mechanisms in place. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Routine_flaring

Natural gas is produced when crude oil is depressurized. Isolated natural gas fields do exist, at a much deeper depth than oil fields, and so they require much more work to obtain.
5 trillion cubic feet of natural gas is burned at the well worldwide, and another 2 trillion cubic feet is simply vented to the atmosphere, every year. We could increase the worldwide gas supply by 10% by simply capturing waste gas.

I'm sorry I can't find a reference on Truth Social or Parler or whatever you think is an acceptable source. I've provided references for everything I've tried to explain to you, and your answers appear to be typed out with your phone jammed fully up your own ass. Get a clue or go back to New Hampshire.

Born in Boston lived here all my life, back too gasoline prices have nothing to do with natural gas prices, that’s like saying bread is expensive because the chicken farmers are making so much money. Skinny Jeans, man purse and a scooter, the girls must be chasing you
