How Long Will Cheap Gas Remain for Power Generation?

How Long Will Cheap Gas Remain for Power Generation?
Only at the LDC Gas Forum Mid-Continent will ALL of the Key Players for gas supply, transport, pricing, and buyers come together!
EIA already predicts that we could be at the tipping point of conversion for natural gas as the fuel of choice for Power generation.  What effects will accelerate this changeover in fuels at existing plants, and how many new plants are coming online to increase pricing?  With pipelines entering a period of unprecedented change in both quantity and flow, will your natural gas supply and demand patterns change rapidly?
 
focused on the BEST way to PLAN for your
GAS NEEDS, such as -
Supply & Demand ~ Way Out of Balance?
The shale revolution continues; therefore we continue to have an oversupply of natural gas...but for how long?  What is the impact of the Utica Shale Play on the region?  How much will Power Generation demand continue its increase to take up supply?  What about exporting LNG?  What about NGV’s?  How many operators are shifting to a focus on NGLs?  How will these factors and more impact supply?  Hear from the experts from throughout the gas supply chain.
Industry Updates ~ Regulatory, Financial, Elections & Political Impacts
  • 2012 is a pivotal year and the political landscape could dramatically affect the pace of regulatory action, as well as potentially the supply of shale gas for the market.  Hear how the possible electoral scenarios at both the executive and legislative branches could impact the natural gas business and what to expect and how to make plans for action in 2013.
  • Dodd-Frank ~ there are still so many questions to be asked and answered regarding the sweeping legislation of this Bill.  How will it continue to mold the future of Natural Gas?  What are the political ramifications of the Dodd-Frank Bill and how it will affect the industry and how will prices be affected as it relates to power generation factors for the nation.  This panel will combine thoughts around the aspects of regulation, financial and political issues and will work at making sense of what is next for the future…
