Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.8. Natural gas, high pressure' is a fossil fuel with a calorific value of 39 MJ/m3. It is used as a gaseous fuel and is sourced from oil and gas production and evaporation of liquid natural gas. The initial pressure of the gas is 1-5 bar (1000-5000 hPa). Its main applications are in the following sectors: domestic (heating and cooking) and industrial power source, automotive and aviation fuel. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is market group. The reference product amount is 1.

Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.10. The product ‘natural gas high pressure' is a fossil fuel for which a generic gross calorific value (GCV) of 40MJ/m3 a net calorific value (NCV) of 36.0 MJ/m3 and a density of 0.735kg/m3 for natural gas are applied in line with the global statistics (referring to standard cubic meters Sm3 measured at 15°C and 1013 mbar). It is used as a gaseous fuel and is sourced from oil and gas production and evaporation of liquid natural gas. The initial overpressure of the gas is 1-5 bar (1000-5000 hPa). Natural gas supplied at high pressure is predominantly used by large consumers e.g. power plants and industries.  The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is market group. The reference product amount is 1.

Emission intensity of the supply chain per Canadian dollar spent on: aviation fuel. Retrieved from the OpenIO-Canada v2.9 model which is a Canadian Environmentally Extended Input-Output (EEIO) model. The emission factor is provided in purchaser price including taxes retail margins and distribution costs. Endogenization is not included meaning the emission factor does not account for capital goods.
