This document provides a summary of a study conducted by Wood Mackenzie on the competitiveness of the proposed Alaska LNG project. The study finds that the Alaska LNG project currently has one of the highest cost of supply estimates compared to other proposed LNG projects targeting the North Asia market. Several options are explored that could help reduce the project's costs and improve its competitiveness, including implementing a third-party owned tolling structure, increasing the State of Alaska's ownership stake, and making changes to the fiscal regime through reductions in taxes. However, the analysis finds that even with these options the project may still struggle to be competitive at current LNG market prices.
At a town hall meeting in Fairbanks, Alaska, concerns were raised about the state's natural gas pipeline plans and negotiations. Voters had mandated building a large gas pipeline from Prudhoe Bay to Valdez for in-state use and LNG exports, but years of study went into an uneconomic plan to pipe gas to Canada and the lower 48. ExxonMobil knew a decade ago that plan made no sense due to the shale gas revolution. Asian LNG buyers had offered to purchase gas or build the pipeline themselves, but the North Slope producers refused to sell them gas. Senate Bill 138 aimed to negotiate fiscal certainty for the producers by lowering taxes and locking them in, but 17 amendments to assert state
This document is a guide to understanding issues related to developing Alaska's natural gas resources. It provides definitions of key terms and discusses the history of proposals for a natural gas pipeline from Alaska's North Slope. While the Alaska Gasline Inducement Act process supported a pipeline to Alberta, Canada, new technologies have increased domestic U.S. gas supplies and the Governor now favors pursuing Asian LNG export markets over the Alberta option. Understanding these complex issues is important for Alaskans to help ensure the state obtains maximum benefit from its natural gas resources.
Developing gas infrastructure in Indonesia's archipelagic geography presents unique challenges. As an island nation made up of over 13,000 islands spanning over 5,000 km east to west, connecting gas supplies to markets requires pipelines, ships and terminals. Current challenges include insufficient domestic infrastructure to utilize non-export gas, and balancing widely dispersed reserves with demand concentrated on Java. Lessons from the past show deals exchanging gas for oil and exporting pipeline gas to other countries can help monetize reserves. Future infrastructure plans include more pipelines, receiving terminals and a virtual pipeline clustering system to link reserves to markets within a regional and international context.

This document summarizes financing trends in the global LNG infrastructure industry from 2016-2017 according to a report by Poten & Partners. It finds that liquefaction projects received the largest share of funding, though results are skewed by the large Yamal LNG project. Project finance continues to be a major source of funding. Key lenders include commercial banks, export credit agencies, and development banks. Shipping companies raise funds through corporate finance, leasing, project finance and capital markets for LNG carriers, FSRUs and FLNG vessels.
This document discusses the feasibility of exporting liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the United States to Japan and South Korea. It finds that the U.S. has significant natural gas resources and production, especially from shale gas basins along the Gulf Coast near proposed LNG export terminals. The cost of delivering U.S. LNG to Asian markets is estimated to be around $7.17/MMBtu, which would provide producers a net margin given current Japanese import prices that are indexed to crude oil prices and average over $9/MMBtu. Exporting U.S. LNG could benefit the U.S. economy through jobs, wages, and investment in gas production and infrastructure.

PLG president, Taylor Robinson spoke on May 5, 2015 at the 65th annual Appalachian Logistics League meeting. Mr. Robinson presentedThe North American Energy Revolution: The Implication for Logistics. The meeting was an opportunity for members to network and discuss the ever changing industry of Supply Chain and Logistics with a primary focus on the impacts to the region.
The document summarizes the implications of the North American energy revolution for rail transportation. It discusses how new extraction technologies have led to surging domestic production of oil, gas and NGLs, displacing many imports. This has led to growth in crude-by-rail as production outpaced pipeline capacity, especially for Bakken crude moving to refineries. It forecasts crude-by-rail volumes remaining stable as pipelines are built out slowly, and prices expected to rebound after a challenging 2015 enables continued production growth and frac sand/crude-by-rail demand.

Grid Logistics is exploring opportunities to deliver liquefied natural gas (LNG) to parts of Asia using cryogenic articulated tug barges (CATBs) as an alternative to pipelines or ships. CATBs could cost-effectively deliver LNG to areas of Indonesia and Japan that lack pipeline infrastructure. They provide a flexible option that is quicker to deploy than fixed assets and can be redeployed if market conditions change. Grid Logistics estimates CATBs could supply LNG to parts of Indonesia at a lower cost than the existing plan to build regasification terminals.
This document discusses the impact of unconventional energy resources like shale oil and gas and oil sands on rail transportation in North America. It notes that technological advances have enabled increased production from these resources, driving growth in related rail shipments of materials like frac sand and crude oil. However, pipeline capacity constraints currently necessitate significant crude by rail shipments, especially of Canadian oil. The document also examines proposed regulations on rail shipments of crude oil and their potential effects. Overall rail traffic of frac sand and crude oil has grown rapidly but further growth depends on regulatory and infrastructure developments.
This document discusses floating storage and regasification units (FSRUs) as an alternative to onshore LNG terminals. FSRUs offer lower upfront costs, faster development timelines, and flexibility in their location compared to onshore terminals. However, FSRUs also face challenges from meteorological conditions that can disrupt operations and availability. The document outlines the opportunities and risks of FSRUs that developers must consider to determine if an FSRU is the best solution for a given LNG import project.

This document discusses the potential for LNG exports from the United States to Japan. It notes that Japan is the world's largest LNG importer and will likely increase imports following the Fukushima disaster. The US has large natural gas reserves and proposed LNG export terminals on the Gulf Coast that could supply Japan. An analysis of delivery costs suggests US LNG delivered to Japan could be competitive at $7.17/MMBtu compared to other suppliers. However, risks include regulatory hurdles, potential oversupply from other exporters, and environmental concerns around fracking. If these challenges can be addressed, US LNG exports have the potential to supply growing Asian demand.

LNG Basics document discusses liquefied natural gas (LNG) and its production and transportation. Some key points:
- LNG is natural gas that has been cooled to liquid form, which reduces its volume by about 600 times, making it feasible to transport over long distances.
- The liquefaction process involves purifying natural gas and cooling it to -162°C. LNG is then stored in insulated tanks and transported globally via specialized LNG carriers or tankers.
- Receiving terminals regasify LNG by reheating it, allowing it to then be distributed via pipeline as regular natural gas. Long-term contracts govern the international LNG trade between supplier and receiving countries.

The document provides an update on regulatory and commercial activities related to the proposed Alaska LNG project. Key points include:
- The project has received acceptance into the FAST-41 permitting program to enhance federal coordination and accountability. Special permits are also being pursued from the PHMSA.
- Extensive environmental reviews have already been conducted for the proposed pipeline route. FERC is the lead federal agency reviewing the project's application.
- Non-binding agreements like MOUs and LOIs have been signed with several major Asian LNG buyers to indicate interest, though binding long-term contracts will be needed to secure financing.
- A financial model assumes $32 billion in project debt and $10.8
The document provides updates on three natural gas projects and one propane project in British Columbia:
1) TransCanada's Prince Rupert Gas Transmission project has signed an agreement with 12 Gitxsan Nation hereditary chiefs, and now has agreements with 13 First Nations total.
2) Aurora LNG has submitted its environmental assessment application for its proposed LNG facility on Digby Island near Prince Rupert.

- Crude oil takeaway from the Permian Basin is projected to become significantly constrained during Q3'18-Q2'19, which could widen basis differentials and benefit companies with marketing businesses in the Permian like PAA and ETP.
- Takeaway is expected to be adequate in Q3'19-Q1'20 as new pipelines come online but could tighten again starting in Q2'20, suggesting the need for 200-400 MBbls/d of additional pipeline capacity.
- Production in the Permian is tracking the analyst's previous forecasts, prompting them to modestly raise their long-term production outlook for the region.

This document provides an overview of Teekay LNG Partners' investor day presentation. It highlights the company's $11 billion in forward fee-based revenues from its LNG and LPG shipping businesses. It also discusses growth opportunities from new LNG export projects in the US and other regions, underpinned by strong Asian demand. The presentation outlines Teekay LNG's competitive advantages including its scale, innovative MEGI LNG carriers, strategic partnerships, and reliable operational performance.
Teekay LNG Partners reported higher distributable cash flow in Q4 2012 compared to Q4 2011, driven by growth projects including the Exmar LPG joint venture. DCF was $53.6 million in Q4 2012, up 22% from $44.1 million in Q4 2011. While near-term DCF will be temporarily offset by drydocking and charter rates, the Exmar transaction is expected to become increasingly accretive over time as new LNG carriers and LPG vessels deliver through 2016. Teekay LNG aims to pursue additional growth through new shipping opportunities and third party acquisitions.

The Economic Impact on Alaska of Various Fiscal Solutions (4.10.2021)Brad Keithley
This document summarizes several studies on the economic impact of different fiscal solutions for Alaska's budget deficit. The 2016 ISER study examined the impact of options like spending cuts, PFD cuts, and tax increases on income, jobs, distribution across income levels, and regions of Alaska. It found that PFD cuts would have the largest adverse impact on the economy and families. Subsequent ISER studies reinforced that PFDs significantly reduce poverty. A 2019 study argued for reduced spending and analyzed revenue options using static and dynamic models. A 2020 Tax Foundation study argued that certain taxes like sales taxes could have lower economic impact than others, but it provided limited analysis. The presentation concludes by advocating for a flat tax as the best option to

DNR Fall 2020 Production Forecast (1.27.2021)Brad Keithley
The document provides a summary of Alaska's 2020 oil production forecast. It notes that the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted production in 2020, leading to deferred maintenance and interrupted drilling. The forecast expects average 2021 production of 470,000 barrels per day, within the range of 413,000 to 526,000 barrels per day. Currently producing fields will remain the backbone of production, while future projects under development or evaluation could help offset declining output from mature fields over the long term. However, uncertainty increases in longer-term forecasts due to risks associated with new projects.
LegFin: Preliminary Overview of the Governor's FY22 Budget (1.8.2021)Brad Keithley
The document provides a preliminary overview of Alaska's structural budget deficit and the Governor's FY2022 budget proposal. It notes that Alaska has faced nine consecutive years of budget deficits due to declining oil revenue. The Governor's budget reduces spending from the current law baseline through lower agency budgets and partial funding of items like the PFD. It draws funds from the ERA to fully pay the PFD but still faces a small deficit. The 10-year plan aims to balance the budget starting in FY2023 through dividend reductions, spending cuts, and new revenue.
