Natural Gas to 2030
1
Executive summary
• Global natural gas consumption expected to increase 47% by 2030
• Longterm demand will be driven by emerging market energy needs and
European imports
• Global recoverable reserves will become more plentiful due to
unconventional drilling technologies (e.g. shale gas, tight gas)
• Significant stranded reserves will tie into global supply network with
new transnational pipelines and liquified transport technologies
• Diversification of hydrocarbon trade dependencies will have a
democratizing effect on global energy security
• Natural gas will play a key role in meeting global carbon reduction
targets

Drilling Technology: Unconventional drilling technologies such
as shale gas will have a multiplier effect on global gas reserves
and open new basins to exploration
Transporation: Expansion of liquified natural gas (LNG) and
transnational pipelines will provide new global supply routes
between the field and end-markets
Meanwhile, two disruptive factors will create

technologies (2 of 2)
Shale/tight
gas
Description Pros/Cons
• Sweet gas stored within the
pours of a coal resevoir,
typically with low permeability
• Similar to conventional
production except need for
water removal
– Wells are drilled into coal bed
– Water is removed before gas
flows out
Coalbed
methane
• High drilling success rates
• Inexpensive and quick well
completion
• Environmental concerns on
produced water disposal
• Shale: gas trapped in original
shale source rock with insufficient
porosity and permiability to flow
• Tight: gas trapped in unusually
impermeable, hard rock, or non-
porous sandstone or limestone
• Accessed by drilling horizontal
well that intersects natural
fractures and using pressurized
liquids to fracture the rock and
stimulate flow
• Significant basin potential globally
• Volume drilling effects reduce
cost of drilling and fracing
• Lower, but economic flow rates
• Drilling and fracing requires
learning effects unique to basin

Natural gas backed by an emerging political will –
old and new relationships in play
“We want the Southern Corridor to be ready by 2016-2017 … Research shows that energy production in Europe will
decrease by then and the need for gas increase … If Azerbaijan cannot supply the Nabucco gas pipeline in full, other
regional countries, for example Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan, can join too.”
Guenther Oettinger, European Union Energy Commissioner, Nov. 2010
“We are discussing [LNG] with other potential consumers in the Gulf, Canada, Argentina and Chile … We’re seeing new
markets there. New customers there. Customers even if you talked about five years ago no one would believe you …”
Abdullah bin Hamad Al Attiyah, Qatar Deputy Premier, Nov. 2010
“Huge discoveries of natural gas promise to shake up the energy markets and geopolitics … Europe may have nearly
200 trillion cubic feet of its own shale gas … Resources are believed to extend into countries such as Poland, Romania,
Sweden, Austria, Germany—and Ukraine. Once European shale gas comes, the Kremlin will be hard-pressed to use its
energy exports as a political lever. Greater shale-gas production in Europe will also make it harder for Iran to profit from
exporting natural gas.”
Amy Jaffe, Baker Institute, WSJ, Shale Gas Will Rock the World, May 2010
“The United States will promote the use of shale gas … natural gas is the cleanest fossil fuel available for power
generation today, and a number of countries in the Americas may have shale gas resources. If developed, shale gas
could make an important contribution to our region’s energy supply …”
Hilary Clinton, U.S. Secretary of State, April 2010
“The US and China will use experience gained in the United States to assess China’s shale gas potential, promote
environmentally-sustainable development of shale gas resources, conduct joint technical studies to accelerate
development of shale gas resources in China, and promote shale gas investment in China through the US-China Oil and
Gas Industry Forum, study tours, and workshops…”

Baltic basin; licensed1mn acres of
prime shale for 55 cents an acre

• Gas resevoir
• Geological trap
• Permeability
• Porosity
• Probable reserves
• Proved reserves
• Source rock
• Seismic survey
• A porous and permeable rock formation in which natural gas accumulates
• Any geological structure that stops the migration of hydrocarbons through
subsurface rocks, causing an accumulation in the reservoir rock
• The capacity of a substance (such as rock) to transmit a fluid. The degree of
permeability depends on the number, size, and shape of the pores and/or
fractures in the rock and their interconnections. It is measured by the time it
takes a fluid of standard viscosity to move a given distance
• The capacity of a reservoir to store fluids. The ratio of the aggregate volume of
pore spaces in rock or soil to its total volume, usually stated as a per cent
• Reserves believed to exist with reasonable certainty based on geological
information
• Reserves that can be economically produced with a large degree of certainty
from known reservoirs using existing technology
• The rocks in which hydrocarbons are created or sourced from carbohydrates
through heat and pressure. Source rocks are often black shales
• Running one or more 2-D or 3-D seismic lines over a large area and using the
acquired data to create detailed models of underlying geological formations

• A petroleum recovery process that takes produced gas and condensate and
injects it back into the reservoir to increase pressure and production of NGLs
• Drilling horizontally through a reservoir to increase the exposure of the well
• Enhancing the production of a well; includes acidizing and fracturing the
reservoir as well as removing wax and sand from the wellbore

• Liquefied natural

• Trunk lines
• Increasing the pressure of natural gas to move it through pipelines or other
facilities; natural gas in its gaseous state that has been compressed to about
one per cent of its volume and stored at 20,000 to 27,500 kilopascals
• Method of liquifying gas for transport using ships capable of liquification
• Pipelines that carry natural gas at high pressure from producing areas to
consuming areas
• The process of turning liquefied natural gas into a vaporous or gaseous state
by increasing the temperature and decreasing the pressure
• Supercooled natural gas that is maintained as a liquid at or below -160°C;
LNG occupies 1/640th of its original volume and is therefore easier to
transport if pipelines cannot be used
• Large-diameter pipelines that transport crude oil, natural gas liquids and
refined petroleum products to refineries and petrochemical plants; some trunk
lines also transport refined products to consuming areas
