MODEL FOR PREDICTING GAS FLARING IN NIGER DELTA

Oil production has been going on in Nigeria for over45 years together with the flaring of natural gas. It is important to know the amount of gas been flared for every production of oil and gas. Hence, this paper is on development of a model to predict gas flaring. This was done by analyzing production data from NNPC record and multiple regressions was carried out and Durbin Watson statistic model was used to test for adequacy .It is clear that the model developed a sure-fire that can predict gas flaring in oil companie
