Aims and Scope
The objective of the Journal of Natural Gas Science & Engineering is to bridge the gap between the engineering and the science of natural gas by publishing explicitly written articles intelligible to scientists and engineers working in any field of natural gas science and engineering from the reservoir to the market.

An attempt is made in all issues to balance the subject matter and to appeal to a broad readership. The Journal of Natural Gas Science & Engineering covers the fields of natural gas exploration, production, processing and transmission in its broadest possible sense. Topics include: origin and accumulation of natural gas; natural gas geochemistry; gas-reservoir engineering; well logging, testing and evaluation; mathematical modelling; enhanced gas recovery; thermodynamics and phase behaviour, gas-reservoir modelling and simulation; natural gas production engineering; primary and enhanced production from unconventional gas resources, subsurface issues related to coalbed methane, tight gas, shale gas, and hydrate production, formation evaluation; exploration methods, multiphase flow and flow assurance issues, novel processing (e.g., subsea) techniques, raw gas transmission methods, gas processing/LNG technologies, sales gas transmission and storage. The Journal of Natural Gas Science & Engineering will also focus on economical, environmental, management and safety issues related to natural gas production, processing and transportation.

Thank you to the four reviewers for their valuable comments and to Prof Pan for providing the opportunity to make revisions. The quality of the article has greatly improved.

The journal has developed rapidly in recent years and is no longer the low-quality journal that people talked about five years ago.

The journal's review process is strict and standardized. From the associate editor to the executive editor, editorial supervisor, and editor-in-chief, the quality control is relatively strict, which shows the journal's determination to develop at a high level.

There are three rounds of review, and the reviewers can be quite strict. Sometimes their opinions are not very professional, but the editors are responsible and make decisions based on their own judgment. I don't know why, but now the review period is generally longer (more than 5 months), which can be frustrating.

After the name change this year, the journal may not be indexed for two years (this is usually the case, but it is not certain). The source of submissions may be affected. However, the research field of the journal is timely and promising, making it worth investing in.
