Description

Location: DK - Denmark
This dataset describes the transport needed for an average export of British natural gas (expressed in tkm).
An average distance of 785 km is estimated for the export, of which are 235 km offshore pipeline.
.
Characteristics are based on the ecoinvent report v2 'Erdgas' from 2007: HV; 39.13 MJ/m-3; density, 0.79 kg/m-3, 0.67 kg CH4/m-3, 0.0059 kg CO2/m-3
Undefined unit processes (UPRs) are the unlinked, multi-product activity datasets that form the basis for all of the system models available in the ecoinvent database. This is the way the datasets are obtained and entered into the database by the data providers. These activity datasets are useful for investigating the environmental impacts of a specific activity (gate-to-gate), without regard to its upstream or downstream impacts.

Technology

The distance to the different countries is based on rough estimates using maps of pipeline networks.
