Northern Gas Pipelines: Ziff Energy Group

11-1-02 Updates: 00:01, 11:13, 12:54 ET.  Oil & Gas Journal by Jim Stott, CALGARY -- Both the Alaska natural gas pipeline and the Mackenzie Valley pipeline will be built, with the Mackenzie line likely to go first, says a senior Canadian pipeline executive.   Bob Reid president of Duke Energy Gas Transmission's (DEGT) Canadian unit, told a Ziff Energy Group conference in Calgary Tuesday that the demand for new supply will drive pipeline projects. DEGT is a unit of Duke Energy Corp., Charlotte, NC. … Reid said pipeline companies must deal with a number of new realities, including the need for legitimate participation in projects by First Nations groups and recognition that pipelines involve First Nations lands.  He said a major question is who will underwrite the cost of the pipelines. … Reid said all big energy providers are currently going through "tough waters" after Enron Corp.'s implosion and related crises. He said his company currently plans to focus on the fundamentals, including safety, its customers, maintaining its A1 credit rating, and a lower trajectory for growth and capital spending. He said there are no plans to sell any major assets. … Steve Becker (Photo), vice-president of gas strategy for TransCanada PipeLines Ltd., Calgary, said 2003 is likely to be a key year for decisions on arctic pipeline projects. He also said that at some point in the future unconventional gas sources such as coalbed methane and tight gas will become part of the supply picture. … The TransCanada executive said producers will make a lot of key capital spending decisions in 2003 on arctic projects, and these decisions will also drive increased exploration activity.  Becker said TransCanada sees four integrated projects in the arctic when it looks at pipeline development: 

  • A Mackenzie Valley pipeline from the Mackenzie Delta to connect with a TransCanada system at the Alberta-Northwest Territories border

  • The Alaskan portion of the Alaska pipeline project.

  • The Yukon-British Columbia portion of the Alaska pipeline.

  • Integration of the arctic pipeline projects into the Alberta pipeline system and into the continental pipeline grid. The Alberta portion would involve Foothills Pipeline with Duke Energy.

Becker and Reid agreed that an "over-the-top" pipeline project from Alaska across the Beaufort Sea to the Mackenzie Valley is not a realistic option.  (Please find Becker's PowerPoint presentation here.  Link provided by NGP reader, Greg Komaromi.)

Oil & Gas Journal, by Steven Poruban, 
HOUSTON, Apr. 16 -- Conventional natural gas supplies will not be enough to meet the North American market's demand for gas over the next decade. In the coming years, demand will have to be met through all industry players working together to expand North America's gas network as well as exploring for gas in various frontier areas of the US and Canada.
This was the consensus among panelists representing US and Canadian pipelines and producers at the opening of the 2-day North American Gas Strategies Conference hosted by Ziff Energy Group Monday in Houston.
