4 $7 Billion Entry Fee

6 Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) 1. Allows gas to be sold from remote suppliers Indonesia, Middle East, Australia, Algeria, etc. to industrialized countries, Japan, Korea, Spain, UK and USA 2. The largest producer of LNG is Qatar. 3.. Was Indonesia but gas reserves depleted 4. The largest market for LNG is Japan 5. International trade in 2007 was ~165mtpy (Equivalent to 217BCMa)

8 Gas Markets 1. Residential & Commercial a. Heating demand highly seasonal (low load factor) b. No fuel switching capabilities 2. Industrial a. Fuel for factories, chemical plants, steel mills, etc. b. Power generation for factories, chemical plants, steel mills, etc. c. Chemical feedstock ammonia, methanol, GTL d. High load factor e. Fuel switching capability

9 WHAT IS LNG 96% Methane 3% Ethane 1% 0.1% Propane Butane Pentane + LPG NGL LNG LPG Liquid Petroleum Gas NGL Natural Gas Liquids LNG Liquid Natural Gas

11 Example LNG Properties -162 o C [-235 o F] at atmospheric pressure Rich Lean nitrogen methane ethane propane butanes approx. kg/m CV (higher) MJ/m
