Business entities engaged in oil and gas production activities, especially in the oil and gas upstream activities, have the ability to reduce greenhouse gas emissions flare (flare gas fuels) by 30-60% per year in developing environmentally friendly oil and gas industry.

As offered by the site lemigas, Director of engineering and MINERAL RESOURCES and oil and gas Environment Suyartono in his book “the Environmental Safety of oil and gas”, flare gas reduction policy of 30-60% per year is an attempt to achieve zero flare in 2012 in accordance with the Kyoto Protocol in 1997 and has been ratified by Indonesia through Act No. 17 of 2004.

Related to this, the program zero flare up  in collaboration with the World Bank has conducted an inventory of the amount of flare gas fuels (gas flare) and CO2 venting (individual-clusters and possible today) generated by a business entity in the business activities of oil and gas.

“A study that aims to identify the potential for CO2 reduction in flaring activities and enhance national capacity and venting with improvements to the system of collecting and reporting data related to the operation of upstream natural gas in Indonesia,” he explained.

One of the implementation of policies to achieve those goals were minimize waste disposal membrane to the environment by way of doing reindeer to membrane well. This has already started to do in some of the oil and gas, including LNG project.

Flare system is the installation of which must be in every oil and gas industry. The process involves a dangerous gas and flammable gases so as to trigger the crash. Flare system is a protection system of gas comes out of the system process by means of burning gas that comes out before entering the atmosphere.

However, burning of flare system turned out to be one of the causes of global warming so that combustion is to be reduced.

In 2008, the volume of a gas flare Indonesia around 113 MMSCFD. Of that amount, approximately 109 UNIT came from oil and gas upstream activities and the rest of the downstream oil and gas activities. While according to the World Bank, in 2007 Indonesia have burned approximately 215 MMSCF and was eighth in the world 13. The burning of Indonesia, adding to about 12 million tons of CO2 into the atmosphere and dispose of more than US $ 400 million each year.

Gas flares can also be utilized to meet energy needs. Head of BPMIGAS r. Priyono some time ago expressed, during the semester 1 2009 BPMIGAS managed to facilitate the signing and selling gas flares burn at some places. Among other things, the Field is given the total volume of the Sukowati BSCF with value by 35.7 per total sales of US $ 71.4 million over 6 years.

In addition, sales of gas flares burn was signed from the field in Papua of 17.5 Matoa BSCF with a total value of sales of US $ 25.9 million over 10 years.

The automotive world is no longer just environmentally sound but are also required to give a sense of security and pleasure and the ability to adapt to all situations and conditions. To meet these demands, various innovations continue to be done on the car which is the main means of land transport in the present and future. Machine * Hybrid systems Hybrid system is a transitional system that leads to an efficient automotive technologies and clean, these systems still emit pollution, but is relatively low because the engine is a combination of oil-fueled engine with an electric engine system. The main driving force of this car is an electric motor with permanent magnets that require a certain amount of electricity that comes from the battery. While the driving force that uses fuel oil is only needed if battery power is decreased, the engine fuel is required to charge an electric battery, after full power of this machine will stop itself. Thus the use of fuel becomes less and by itself would be less pollution. The less electricity used by the motor the less well working engine battery charger, battery capacity greatly affects the machine working longer because of the larger capacity battery will be less and less well the machine works. * Brain regulator Brain regulator (electronic control module) is a small computer with a large capacity because the system is able to regulate ignition or injection continuously after the engine purposes. To do this requires a computer job information from various sensors to determine the position of the gas valve, piston number one position, coolant temperature, intake air temperature, amount of air flow, velocity and other parts that need. Harmony Cars, Humans and the Environment Small cars is one way to answer the demands of time to conserve natural resources cracked, save energy, reduce emissions and do not make the streets filled with cars  as large, while we wanted the room spacious and comfortable car. To meet all the small cars it should be compact but spacious room enough for at least five persons including the driver. Spacious interior allows the passengers relaxed and easy to communicate, not only with other passengers but also with his vehicle. To save space, the door slid open sideways so that passengers can simply press the release button that is in or outside the car then electric motors automatically move the door, but it could also open the door using a remote controller. Now the car is not just the iron runs but part of life and the human environment. Harmonious relationship was finally back to the basic concepts of automotive technology in order to satisfy the human desire to cars fast, safe and comfortable. The emphasis of these three elements are located on the safety and comfort. About the security demanded not only the security that is safe from the primary collision that is safe but also secondary and tertiary such as pollution free and fuel efficient. If the higher pollution will ultimately threaten human security, as well as if the natural resources depleted “security” man in the future is also threatened. In terms of convenience of automotive technology experts who developed the concept of human comfort as it loads the driver control the car more reduced. Directions to the manufacture of automotive technology is a car that can serve human desires while maintaining safety. So future cars equipped with the all the computer facilities.

Smart became a pioneer of urban vehicles and smart fortwo electric increasingly showing the direction of urban development around the world. Together with BASF, the chemical manufacturer for the automotive industry the largest in the world, smart show to the visitor smart forvision Concept Frankfurt Motor Show 2011.

The concept car is a vehicle of the future urban design that combines futuristic technology associated with energy efficiency, light weight and temperature management.

Concepts and new materials present in the area of ​​isolation, reflection, light weight design and energy management. As part of energy management, roof with hexagonal shape in some parts of a transparent solar cell that absorbs solar energy and can serve as the cabin lights.

The collected power can also be a resource for multimedia components and third fan is regulated through temperature management in the cabin. When in any scorching heat, cabin interior remains cool because of photovoltaic solar cell technology is new. Component-tech lamp light-emitting diodes (LEDs) was already more energy efficient.

While related to temperature management, window film and paint coatings that counteract the infrared light is better enhanced by high-performance foam against heat and cold temperatures are excessive. In achieving light weight, this car is also the first time wearing a rim of plastic, which is also found in the seats.

Other high-tech components that door made of high-tech composite materials, carbon-fiber-reinforced epoxy resin. This material reduces the weight of more than 50 percent when compared to steel or 30 percent rather than aluminum.

As a source of driving force, smart forvision using an electric motor which is used smart fortwo electric. However, with a maximum energy efficiency applications, intelligent temperature management and lighter weight, then the smart forvision will travel a greater distance of about 20 percent compared to the smart fortwo electric. One answer to the urban car of the future has emerged into the public world.
