Northeast LNG Facilities

Northeast Gas Supply Key Points

Marcellus, Rockies & LNG displacing Canadian and

Gulf supplies

– Marcellus: 4-7 Bcf/d by 2017

– REX: 1-2 Bcf/d available

– Canadian imports losing market share

LNG remains a big wildcard – Will Northeast

terminals be an attractive destination?

– NBP vs. Henry Hub

– Continued strength in Asian and European demand

Too Bearish?
