North American LNG Export Define the challenges & opportunities surrounding exporting LNG from North America 25th – 27th October 2011
Houston, Texas

With an estimated 100 years of domestic shale gas supply at current rates of demand, and a fairly flat domestic demand outlook, exporting LNG from North America looks very economically attractive.

But how feasible is this?

LNG export from North America is inching closer to becoming a reality. But is the government really committed to LNG export? Is there enough gas to go around? and what are the real opportunities for the buyers, sellers, producers and transporters?

If you're asking these questions, this meeting is for you.

At North American LNG Export, we brought together a panel of expert speakers that spanned the supply chain to discuss the benefits, challenges and possibilities associated with exporting LNG from North America. this inaugral event, which provided an open and neutral platform for debate, allowed attendees to evaluate the economic and political landscape, as well as consider the practicalities involved.

It also provided a valuable chance to meet everyone involved, from the producers to the buyers, to discuss the opportunities and establish the beginnings of lucrative working relationships.

Why did they attend?

  • Base your strategic decisions on first hand knowledge of Government support: Assess the political landscape by hearing the view of the Department for Energy and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission on the shale gas boom and the effect on the energy supply picture
  • Meet the whole supply chain: Sellers, transporters, and buyers - and take advantage of our scheduled networking opportunities to get the opinions of all stakeholders involved
  • Understand the infrastructure: Meet with terminal owners and get an insight into their experiences, their commitment to export and their plans as development begins
  • Hedge the price risk: Effectively plan, draft and negotiate successful contracts and allocate risk between contracting parties
  • Examine the in-depth global economics of the LNG market: Determine whether the price spread justifies exports commercially and in the long-term
  • Identify your market: Meet with the European and Asian market, and discuss their long term energy requirements and the implications of LNG export from North America
