5. US LNG
SEXY, BUT EXPENSIVE!!
Valuations now ultra high
Cash flows 2 years away
4-6% yield baked in, lots of debt
Positives?
-Asia desperate for supplier competition
-Panama Canal
12. Liquefaction Plant Capital Costs $2.00 per Mcf
Based on $1,200 mln per mtpa construction costs at 8% cost of capital
Natural Gas $4.00 per Mcf
Pipeline Transportation $ .75 per Mcf
Liquefaction and Refrigeration Costs $ .80 per Mcf
Plant Maintenance Costs $ .50 per Mcf
Operational Costs $ .20 per Mcf
LNG Shipping Costs $1.12 per Mcf
Total Delivered LNG Cost to Asia from BC $9.37 per Mcf
13. N. AMERICA LNG BUILD OUT
USA
6 Proposals Approved to ship LNG
8.5 bcf/d=13% current US production
1st export Sabine Pass late 2015
Brownfield—changing import to export—16 bcf capacity
idle ($100 billion white elephant)
CANADA
14 Proposals; none approved—total 13 bcf/d
1st export Q4 15—but very small; #2 not until 2018
Greenfield—from scratch—higher risk
14. 14
Ambitious plans – consortiums ahead

Terminal Capacity by Project (bcf/d)
Prince Rupert
Initial Full
XOM 1.6 4.0
BG 1.8 2.8
Petronas 1.6 2.4
Total 5.0 9.2
Kitimat
KLNG 1.3 1.3
LNGCan 1.6 3.2
DCEP 0.2 0.2
Total 3.1 4.7
Total 8.1 13.9
15. BC LNG
Potential Multi-Year Run for service companies
Huge spending to develop reserves
$7.5 billion in construction per bcf export
13 bcf=$97.5 billion
13 bcf=all the natgas Canada produces today
Like to see 3-5 bcf by 2020
16. Where’s the BIG Money Going?
New gas pipelines = $4 billion in
GDP/45,000 job years
Terminal facilities (Rupert/Kitimat) 8350 job
years
Production profits from upstream gas
extraction=$134 billion to 2035
18. SMALL Technology
Could Win Big in BC LNG
BC LNG Cooperative / Golar LNG
New Technology—Small Scale Floating Export
Terminals by Golar--FSRU
1st to production—2015/2016
Golar—GLNG-NASD—LNG shipper—make BIG
money
They capture most of the “arb”—price difference
19. Leading Edge Technology
2nd FSRU in the world
I think BC could have multiple small scale
FSRUs
$300 million capex vs. $10 billion
18 months to build vs 5 years
I expect FID very quickly—big catalyst
20. Who Will Be First in BC?
1. Petronas—Malaysia—FID late 2014
(Pacific Northwest LNG)
2. Golar/Haisla—small scale floating barge
(BC LNG)
3. Woodfibre north of Vancouver
21. Conclusion
Easy Money already made in US LNG
Canadian LNG needs catalyst for next leg
GOLAR Makes FID should be that catalyst
But $100 billion spending will happen soon
Multi year run for services stocks
