Abstract: Burning gaseous fuels is an important issue for any economy. Countries that hold large quantities of natural gas are economically strong, have independent energy systems. In Romania there are significant reserves of natural gas which allowed, in a certain period, the development of petrochemical industry. In 1966 we extracted approximately 15 million cubic meters of methane gas production represented a 200% increase from 1961. In the 2010-2011 the entire production was about 10.5 billion cubic meters, up to 2,600 billion cubic meters in 2012. It is obvious that Romania remains dependent on imported gas and coal. Evolution of natural gas consumption in Romania has been relatively constant
