1 Fort Nelson Gas Plant, British Columbia The Future and Evolution of LNG Markets Gary Weilinger, Vice President, Strategic Development and External Affairs September 8, 2011

2 Fort Nelson Gas Plant, British Columbia BC Natural Gas Potential: Why LNG Exports Make Sense

3 British Columbia Natural Gas Supply That Was Then This is Now Then Supply treadmill to offset declines Now 100+ years supply and growing More gas = more wells More gas = fewer wells Incremental expansion of plants and pipelines to serve traditional markets Step-out growth, new plants and pipelines, pursuing Asian export markets Rising natural gas prices with high volatility Moderate prices for short and mid-term BC oil and gas revenues = 20% of resource sector, 2% of province (1998/99) BC oil and gas revenues = 57% of resource sector, 4% of province (2009/10) Bridge fuel to renewable future Foundation fuel for lower-carbon world

4 BC Unconventional Natural Gas Potential Altering the Energy Landscape 70 Average Reserves per Square Mile (10 wells per sq. mile) (BCF/Sq. Miles) 60 Montney & HRB 's 90's 80's 70's 60's 50s

5 BC s Game Changing Natural Gas Supply In Competition With U.S. Supply Growth HORN RIVER Original Gas in Place (Tcf) 500 Current Production (Bcf/d) 0.4 Producer Peak Forecast (Bcf/d) 2.0 MONTNEY Original Gas in Place (Tcf) 450 Current Production (Bcf/d) 1.0 Producer Peak Forecast (Bcf/d) 4.0 WOODFORD Original Gas in Place (Tcf) 23 Current Production (Bcf/d) 1.2 Producer Peak Forecast (Bcf/d) 1.7 BARNETT Original Gas in Place (Tcf) 327 Current Production (Bcf/d) 5.2 Producer Peak Forecast (Bcf/d) 6.0 EAGLE FORD* Original Gas in Place (Tcf) 95 Current Production (Bcf/d) 0.7 Producer Peak Forecast (Bcf/d) 3.0 *Playin early stages of development and highly variable MARCELLUS Original Gas in Place (Tcf) 1,500 Current Production (Bcf/d) 2.0+ Producer Peak Forecast (Bcf/d) 10.0 FAYETTEVILLE Original Gas in Place (Tcf) 52 Current Production (Bcf/d) 2.5 Producer Peak Forecast (Bcf/d) 3.0 HAYNESVILLE Original Gas in Place (Tcf) 717 Current Production (Bcf/d) 5.5 Producer Peak Forecast (Bcf/d) 10.0

6 British Columbia Natural Gas Supply What Sets BC Shale Gas Supplies Apart? Size of unconventional resource area Horn River and Montneyregions, & emerging Liard and Cordova Embayment plays Volumes of gas delivered per well Infrastructure at the ready and expanding to connect supplies to market Established assets, high reliability and utilization, smaller footprint Well-established industry with knowledgeable operators focused on safety and reliability Proven regulatory framework Distance to markets and growing market competition Forecast BC Gas Production (BCF/d - Sales Gas; Forecast period assumes $4.00/GJ) BC Shale BC Tight BC Non Associated BC Solution Source: CAPP, Q1 2011

7 Natural Gas Prices Competitive Marketplace As Supply Increases, Price Forecasts Drop Henry Hub Now Forecast Under $6.00 to Mid 2020 s Source: Energy Information Administration, Annual Energy Outlook 2011

8 Today s Market Realities Decreased land sales, falling revenues, lower investment = BC supply exceeding market demand

9 North American Natural Gas Dynamics U.S. Will Become Increasingly Self-SufficientSufficient Traditional energy flows changing U.S. domestic supplies closer to demand centres U.S. sees natural gas as economic engine and climate change solution Coal phase-out opportunities Will limit Western Canadian supplies BC s traditional U.S. markets growing slowly U.S. Pacific Northwest can easily access U.S. supply basins U.S. Pacific Northwest = 50% of BC gas supply market since 1957 BC domestic market stagnant Canadian Natural Gas Imports: Source: Energy Information Administration, Annual Energy Outlook Critical that we support our industry, create our own demand, and build new markets for British Columbia natural gas
