NGL supply
Description
Highlights of the key drivers behind natural gas liquids (NGL) supply were discussed. These include: (1) volume and location of conventional oil and gas reserves, (2) accessibility of gas to reach economic natural gas markets in North America, (3) composition of produced gas stream, and (4) access to economic NGL logistics and processing infrastructure. Supply developments over the last 10 years and the supply outlook were also reviewed. The review showed that the value of Canadian NGL production has risen steadily over the last 10 years with a sharp increase in 1996. There has been continued expansion of NGTL, TCPL and PGT gas infrastructures. NGL supply is driven by natural gas production. Extraction of NGLs from gas is dependent on demand, economics and infrastructure. It was considered very likely that future NGL supply will increase with increased gas production and recovery from upgraders. 5 figs
