There is certainly no shortage of Policy & Regulatory initiatives recently
tabled as part of the ongoing energy transition process. This Panel of
Executives from leading natural gas industry trade associations will examine
several of these initiatives and offer informed perspectives on practical
realities and commercial impacts. Discussion topics include natural gas’
continuing role in a low carbon environment, climate for new infrastructure
projects, leveraging existing infrastructure, LNG exports, electrification,
drilling permitting, FERC policy statements, NRPA re-write, etc.

•The U.S. Natural Gas Industry has expanded significantly - This expansion has been transformational for the U.S.
•High prices for oil and natural gas likely resulting in significant production growth
•In-ability to build new pipelines in the Marcellus & Utica limits growth from the most economic gas basin in the U.S.
•Balanced market for 2022, but risks for 2023 - Logistical issues for coal resulting in strong demand in 2022 but production growth likely to catch up with the market by 2023

As the energy transition gains momentum, innovative operators are introducing a raft of new products marketed as Responsibly Sources Gas (RSG), with a lower carbon intensity by means of a range of creative commercial transactions that mitigate carbon content. With the market aware of potential “greenwashing” a key element of these arrangements involves use of independent tracking, analysis and certification of actual carbon footprint of various fuel sources. This Panel is comprised of an Executive from the leading independent analytical, assessment and certifying body, and an Executive from the leading market operator for ESG-inclusive commodities. Discussion will include explanation of processes, supporting technologies and commercial arrangements of solutions, leveraging examples based upon real-life case studies.

This Panel reviews latest developments of pending N.E. region pipeline
projects, as well as planned initiatives. Also discussed are recent innovations
beyond traditional infrastructure system design that facilitate transition to
lower carbon environment as well as new initiatives and process technologies to
support energy transition.

With increasing policy, regulatory and NGO resistance to midstream
infrastructure additions/expansions, traditional development approaches face
strong headwinds. This panel explores creative, non-traditional, turn-key
methods to get gas to markets. Methods include virtual pipeline, LNG transport,
micro LNG, CNG transport, etc. Both mobile and off-pipeline situations are
explored. Additionally, the panel will discuss how generating clean emissions
free power from waste heat can help companies with their ESG goals. In
addition, the panel will also discuss differentiated gas product alternatives such
as RSG, RNG, LNG, etc. and how these product offerings can be leveraged to
contribute to achieving lower carbon attainment targets.

Please join our hosts, the Corporate Sponsors, at a cocktail reception in your honor. Don’t make your dinner plans too early as hors d’oeuvres and an open bar will be the highlight of this extremely well attended session!
