2 Overview What is Natural Gas? Background on LNG Why LNG? LNG Importers and Facilities

3 What is Natural Gas?

4 The Natural Gas Industry Natural Gas Wells Gas Processing Plant Main Line Sales Natural Gas Company Consumers Underground Storage Production Transmission Distribution Source: Energy Information Administration, Department of Energy

5 Natural Gas Usage Natural gas important for all consumers Residential Commercial Natural Gas Industrial - Furnace/Heat - Boiler/Steam -Feedstock -Power Generation Power Generation

6 Components of Natural Gas Natural gas is the basic building block of many household goods Natural Gas Stream Methane Ethane Propane Butane Ethylene Propylene Butylene Textiles Paints Cosmetics Xylene Detergents Tires Toulene Toys Dry Cleaning Pharmaceuticals

7 Background on LNG

8 19 th century - British chemist and physicist Michael Faraday experimented with liquefying different types of gases German engineer Karl van Linde built the first practical compressor refrigerator machine First LNG plant built in West Virginia First commercial liquefication plant is built in Cleveland, Ohio January The world's first LNG tanker, the Methane Pioneer carries LNG from Lake Charles, LA, to Canvey Island, UK 1971 Everett, MA import facility is built British Gas Council imports from Algeria, making the UK the world's first LNG importer and Algeria the first exporter LNG exported from Kenai plant, AK to Japan LNG History 1974 Cove Point, MD import facility is built 1978 Elba Island, GA import facility is built 1981 Lake Charles, LA import facility is built

9 Properties of LNG Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is natural gas that has been turned into a liquid by cooling it to a temperature of -256 F at atmospheric pressure It consists of primarily methane (typically, at least 90 percent) LNG is odorless, colorless, non-corrosive and non-toxic Liquefying natural gas reduces its volume by a factor of approximately 610 LNG s flammability range limits are 5 to 15 percent in air

10 Natural Gas Reserves by Country (2004) Considerable reserves around the world just not in the areas where the gas is needed Rest of World 22% Russia 28% Venezuela 2% Nigeria 3% Iraq 2% Algeria 3% United States 3% United Arab Emirates 3% Saudi Arabia 4% Source: Energy Information Administration, Department of Energy Total World Reserves of 6,079 Tcf Qatar 15% Iran 15%

11 Economic Sharing in the LNG Chain Regasification terminals are one small portion of the development of an overall LNG project Gas Producer $0.5 to $1.0 billion $ $1.00 / MMBtu 23% of total cost Liquefaction $0.8 to $1.0 billion $ $1.00 / MMBtu 28% of total cost Shipping* $0.6 to $1.2 billion $ $1.60 / MMBtu 35% of total cost Receiving Terminal $300-$400 million $ $0.50 / MMBtu 14% of total cost Cost out of Plant Total Investment: $2.2 to $3.6 billion $2.50 $3.50 / MMBtu Note: *depends upon the distance shipped Source: Cheniere LNG Industry Profile,

13 Receiving Terminal LNG Gas Flow LNG Ship to Tanks Natural Gas LNG Tanks to Vaporizers Tank 1 Tank 2 Tank 3 Boiloff Compressors As LNG boils off, the gas is withdrawn from the tanks and compressed. As gas is required, pumps inside the tanks transfer LNG to the plant vaporizers. The plant vaporizers warm the LNG until it vaporizes. Gas Pipeline
