2 Introduction Summary and Take Away New natural gas supply availability is having considerable impacts on all energy markets today as well as on a longer term, forward-looking basis. Energy-Related Carbon Dioxide 81.2% Shale revolution is now migrating into liquids and crude oil production. Facilitating additional natural gas production despite low prices and some dry gas well shut-ins and decreased natural gas well drilling. Considerable economic development opportunities are starting to arise leading to a burst in considerable capital investment. There are fuel/resource diversity concerns and continued natural gas resource development/environmental concerns and opposition. 2

17 Recent Trends Alternative Natural Gas Reserve Forecasts There are a wide range of unconventional shale gas reserve estimates that are as low as 436 Tcf to as high as 2,750 Tcf. This represents a range of between 18 years and over 100 years of available natural gas resources based upon current consumption levels.* 3,000 Estimated Reserves - Tcf 2,500 2,000 1,500 1, EIA AEO 2012 MIT ITG Investment Research IHS Energy Note: *Assumes an annual consumption level of 24.3 Tcf. The MIT study reached a mean estimate of technically recoverable resources of 631 Tcf with an 80 percent confidence interval of 418 to 871 Tcf. The ITG estimates of recoverable resources is for 10 overlapping plays, totaling 900 Tcf. These are the same 10 plays as estimated by the EIA s AEO (resulting in 426 Tcf). IHS Energy estimates show that total recoverable shale in the U.S. could be as high as 2,750 Tcf, significantly higher than their estimate of 1,268 in

32 Manufacturing Independence Overview: Why Future Economic Development Will Not be Uniformly Distributed While the nature of manufacturing has admittedly changed given the outsourcing prior to the financial meltdown, the U.S. economy is beginning to emerge as a new manufacturing powerhouse. However, the U.S. economic recovery, and regional economic development opportunities over the next decade will likely be concentrated in a few states and regions. What determines the winners and losers in this economic resurgence? The winners will be those areas with access to low-cost energy supplies and transportation infrastructure that can move those supplies to rapidly emerging economic development opportunities in manufacturing that were unimaginable as recently as five years ago. Other important factors influencing manufacturing siting locations includes the presence of a skilled labor force, competitive wage levels, supportive tax policies, as well as fair and stable regulations and regulatory practices.. 32

33 Manufacturing Independence Relative Employment Changes, Shale vs. Non-Shale States (2005=100) Total employment and employment growth has been faster in unconventional shale-based states than in those without these unconventional resources Employment (2005 = 100) States with major shale activity Non-shale states Note: Shale states include Arkansas, Colorado, Louisiana, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Utah and Texas Source: Bureau of Labor Statistics 33

34 Manufacturing Independence Percent Change in Real Quarterly GDP by State, 2013:III TO 2013:IV Many of the states with significant shale activity have the highest growth in quarterly GDP. North Dakota, Wyoming and West Virginia have the highest rates (8.4 percent, 8.4 percent and 7.5 percent, respectively). Louisiana is the third highest at 5.4 percent.

35 Manufacturing Independence Overview: Why Energy-Based Manufacturing What is energy-based manufacturing? Energy-based manufacturing is comprised of industries that focus or rely heavily on energy as the primary input to make their respective products. Energy is typically a feedstock for these industries which use energy to make a number of different products much like a baker uses a common input (flour) to make a variety of different products (biscuits, baguettes, pizza dough). These energy-based manufacturing industries are large, capitalintensive, and compete globally. Energy-based manufacturing wages are even higher than the already-above average manufacturing wage levels. 35

36 Manufacturing Independence Southern Manufacturing Wages vs. Southern Energy-Based Manufacturing Wages Energy-based manufacturing wages in the South are higher than the average manufacturing wage. In 2012, the average energy-based manufacturing wage was 1.5 times that of the average manufacturing wage growing at average annual rate of 5.2 percent (compared to the manufacturing average of 4.2 percent) Average Wage ($) $90,000 $80,000 $70,000 $60,000 $50,000 $40,000 $30,000 $20,000 $10,000 $0 Southern energy-based manufacturing wages are high-growth oriented Manufacturing Average Energy-Based Manufacturing Average Note: Energy-based manufacturing includes: petroleum and coal products; chemical; and plastics and rubber products manufacturing.

37 Manufacturing Independence Industrial Natural Gas Usage Manufacturing industries use natural gas in a range of applications that include the generation of heat, steam, and power. Feedstock uses are equally important and are the building blocks of modern petrochemical manufacturing. Heat Power Generation Boiler/Steam Feedstock 37

38 Manufacturing Independence Natural Gas Price Outlook Annual Energy Outlook ( AEO ) Shale reserves have a significant impact on future price outlook. Abundant supplies should keep prices stable. The current AEO forecasts natural gas prices in 2030 at $5.29/Mcf (47 percent less than the 2009 AEO forecast).

40 Manufacturing Independence What the Strategic Factors Driving this Renewed Interest? The factors driving renewed U.S. manufacturing, particularly chemical manufacturing include: Low natural gas price Increasing U.S. competitiveness (Relative) regulatory certainty Agricultural and other final chemical output price stability Product affordability Strong global demand for chemicals U.S. import displacement opportunities 40

51 Changes in Power Generation 51

52 New Natural Gas Uses New Natural Gas End Uses & Fuel Diversity Concerns As noted earlier, the industrial renaissance is likely to lead to the first increase in industrial natural gas demand in decades. The extent and degree of this is indeterminate. Consider that a new GTL plant or a new LNG facility, use roughly 2/Bcfd alone at full capacity (730 Bcf of annual load each). However, power generation has been and will continue to be a significant natural gas end use. Environmental regulations are having a considerable impact on developers capacity development decisions. The low cost of natural gas is clearly provides a preference to new gas over new coal. 52

58 Natural Gas Uses (NGV) Natural Gas Vehicles A natural gas vehicle ( NGV ) uses compressed natural gas ( CNG ) or, less commonly, liquefied natural gas ( LNG ) as a clean alternative to other automobile fuels. CNG produces nearly 40 percent less CO2 than refined products. In 2008, NGVs used 215 million gasoline gallon equivalent ( GGE ). To compare, total gasoline usage in 2008 was 55 million gallons per day, or a total of 20 billion gallons. Currently in the U.S., about 12 to 15 percent of public transit buses in run on natural gas (either CNG or LNG). States with the highest consumption of natural gas for transportation are California, New York, Texas, Georgia, Massachusetts and D.C. One major limitation is that CNG vehicles require a greater amount of space for fuel storage. 58

71 Conclusions Conclusions Natural Gas Markets Natural gas markets continue to be resilient, affordable and less volatile. Natural gas supply growth increasingly driven by associated natural gas a byproduct of increasing production coming from higher hydrocarbon-based production (Marcellus, Eagle Ford, Bakken). New end uses are a blessing (new manufacturing, more efficient/cleaner power generation) but need to be watched for unanticipated consequences. Continued resource development is policy dependent. Changes in economic and environmental policy can impact the trajectory of unconventional resource development. 71
