Grant Description: NOTE: This descriptive area provides an overview of this Funding Opportunity. YOU MUST READ THE FUNDING OPPORTUNITY MASTER ANNOUNCEMENT FOR DETAILS ON ADDITIONAL INFORMATION, EVALUATION CRITERIA AND HOW TO PREPARE AN APPLICATION UNDER A SPECIFIC AREA OF INTEREST. Please scroll to the bottom of this page under the heading Full Announcement and Other Files and click on the link to access the Funding Opportunity Master Announcement. YOU MUST SUBMIT YOUR APPLICATION VIA GRANTS.GOV TO BE CONSIDERED FOR AN AWARD. Background: The goal of DOE is to provide solutions to environmental issues that are limiting domestic on-shore or off-shore exploration and production while providing the same or higher levels of environmental protection. DOE has identified air quality issues as an areas that posed significant barriers for both oil and gas producers across the country. The air quality issues are limiting domestic production by restricting additional development or by adding costs that cause operators to abandon existing wells while substantial recoverable resources remain in the ground. Applications should describe as completely as possible the impact that the project will have on 7 of 25 increasing or maintaining domestic production either nationally or from an identified region. The description of the production impact should discuss in detail the resource affected and the amount of domestic production that can be added or maintained as a result of the successful completion of the project. Air Emission Sensors and Control: Applications are sought to provide better tools to meet existing or pending air emission requirements for oil and gas exploration and production. Applications should address development of new technologies or the innovative application of existing technologies. Applications should address controls or sensors that provide measurements of emissions levels or feedback controls that adjust engine performance to reduce emissions. The technologies proposed should be applicable to oil-field related engines such as compressor engines. Applications should specifically address the capability of the proposed technology to operate effectively in a variety of temperature regimes and in remote areas with minimal operator monitoring or adjustment. Projects should be aimed at reducing the cost of meeting existing requirements or providing lower-cost technologies to meet proposed requirements. Applications addressing proposed requirements should demonstrate that the proposed requirement is likely to be implemented in the near future. Air Emissions Modeling: Applications are sought to develop improved air models that will provide a more accurate assessment of the impacts of oil and gas activities on regional air quality i.e. from surface emissions from drilling equipment or compressor stations or storage areas. The models proposed should address emissions such as SO2, NOx, VOCs, and particulates that affect visibility as well as particulate precursors. Applications should demonstrate that the proposed model is likely to be accepted and implemented by the appropriate regulatory agencies such as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and/or State air quality regulators.
