Cluster-based Geospatial Optimization of Gas Flaring Sites in the Niger Delta for Enhanced Gas Recovery

Abinye Chimdia Nwankwo, Bourdillon Odianonsen Omijeh & Matthew Ehikhamenle · Journal of Engineering Research and Reports · 2025

Aims: The Niger Delta experiences high levels of routine gas flaring. This leads to wasted associated gas, economic losses, and contributes to environmental degradation. The fragmented spatial distribution of flare sites further complicates gas capture and infrastructure planning...
