Natural Gas Exports: Issues, Promises and Problems

Natural Gas Exports: Realistic Market Response and Political Uncertainly

April 2012

 Overview:

With natural gas trading in the U.S. for about $2 per million British thermal unit, there is considerable interest by producers, gas transporters and investors to dramatically increase exports of natural gas to countries where the price is up to eight times that amount. Exporting gas may prove to be a profitable venture in-and-of-itself but also could soak up excess supply, which would bolster the domestic price.

Current State of LNG:

One way to alleviate the problem of natural gas oversupply in North America is to increase its export. The most economical way to export natural gas is to liquefy it into LNG, which is transported in specially designed transport ships. There are currently over 100 production, export and storage facilities in the U.S and several companies have submitted applications with the U.S. Department of Energy to begin LNG export.

  • National Debt: Does not matter anymore
    The level of the national federal does not matter anymore or at least no until the consequences set in. Parts of the Virus relief justified more borrowing but parts had no rational. The latest Biden giveaway looks like it was drawn up in a basement and there will be more debt to come. Already more that $ 5 trillion. There does not seem to be a social, income transfer or made work scheme that will ever satisfy the now Democrats controlled government. Wonder where they will be when interest rates and inflation take hold?

  • Political Report Card
    Now that eht Democrats control the Federal government , here are the latest grades for our government,

    Administration: President Biden has hardly ever been right on anything and he continues that path with his leftist, exclusionary approach. Immigration deluge at the border, bonehead virus relief package aimed at everything except the areas that actually need help. Giving in to a nuclear Iran, appointments made on quotas. Control of the economy based on probably climate rational, and moving to force people to buy cars that can not be charged. The list and direction is so scary and threatening. The Grade: F plus.

    The Senate is bankrupt institution run by Socialist Democrats by the narrowest of margins. No comity, no prisoners, no discussion. Just more spending, government growth Grade: Grade D minus

    House: The House is a partisan and nasty pit, devoid on any constructive ideas. Grade : Grade F
