Abstract: Why do we odorize natural gas? To give it a distinctive odor so that all inhabitants who have even a moderate sense of smell can identify it, not as odorant, but as natural gas. The benefits derived from odorizing natural gas are many. (1) Customers feel more secure knowing that they can detect a gas leak if one should be present. This contributes to better customer relations. (2) Significant gas leaks have been detected through odorization. Repairing these leaks have reduced the unaccounted-for-gas and provided additional revenue by making this gas available for sale. (3) Public Utilities Commissions in many states require some level of odorization of natural gas.
