Title: CNG-Tomorrows Fuel Today
Author: Roy Dwyer

Abstract: Why the gas industry has a responsibility to accept and use CNG in our fleets and extend its use throughout the industry. The war is over! so announced President Bush to the country in March. Winning the post war political and economic battles may prove to be far more difficult than the military victory. With the troops returning home and gasoline prices at the pre-war levels, averaging 1.10 to 1.25 per gallon, the American people tend to forget the hard lessons of 1973 and 1979 when OPEC nations held the world hostage by cutting back crude oil production. With the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in August of 1990, once again a knife was held at the neck of the oil importing countries with oil per barrel going as high as 40. Predictions of shortages, 2.00 to 3.00 per gallon, and gas lines, were again predicted, however, there was a major difference between the 70s crisis and this years-that being putting the lives of 500,000 troops on the line. The fact is America in 1991 has become more dependent on imported crude oil, much of it from unstable regions of the world, than at any time of its history.
