Gas to methanol. Natural gas is the feedstock used in most of the worldâs production of methanol. Methanol is a primary liquid petrochemical made from renewable and nonrenewable fossil fuels containing carbon and hydrogen. Containing one carbon atom, methanol is the simplest alcohol. It is a colorless, tasteless liquid and is commonly known as âwood alcohol.â. Stranded gas can be monetized by producing chemical (or fuel grade) methanol and transporting it to the market.

Methanol, also known as methyl alcohol, carbinol, wood alcohol, wood naphtha or wood spirits, is a chemical compound with chemical formula CH3OH (often abbreviated MeOH).ther chemical derivatives of methanol include dimethyl ether, which has replaced chlorofluorocarbons as an aerosol spray propellant, and acetic acid. Automotive fuel. Methanol is used on a limited basis to fuel internal combustion engines, mainly by virtue of the fact that it is not nearly as flammable as gasoline.
