October 22, 2012- The 2012 Gas-to-Market & Energy Conversion Forum hosted by Energy Frontiers International was held in Houston, Texas at Hotel Granduca. ADI Analytics CEO, Uday Turaga and Colin McHattie, Senior Advisor, presented on, 'Benchmarking Shale Gas Monetization Options.'
ADI Analytics shared their research on new gas monetization opportunities that was originally motivated by the rapid growth of shale basins and gas supply in North America and oil-gas price. Due to shale gas production growth and lower demand in North American gas demand this multi-client study aimed to put forth options to benchmark all options to utilize, convert, and monetize natural gas while trying to understand returns for gas monetization projects through an investor perspective.
Key messages discussed included power generation continuing to consume volumes of natural gas caused by coal-fired power plant retirements, natural gas conversion to liquid fuels being challenged by high capital costs, LNG exports showing the best economic returns for monetizing natural gas, and natural gas vehicles showing limited option of natural gas due to challenges with market adoption.
