If the gas is simply being flared, wouldn't it be more profitable to bring in some large gas turbines (converted 747 engines would work) and generate power to sell to the grid and neighboring states until pipelines are ready?
If transport is likely to be a recurring problem, it seems obvious that an entrepreneur could step in and arbitrage the price gap between energy and the glut of natural gas in the region by generating power and upgrading power lines.
Even when more natural gas production goes to pipelines, those power lines could later be used to transport North Dakota's wind power.
