EIA: World Is Full of Shale Gas
North America isn’t the only continent that enjoys a shale gas abundance, according to research commissioned by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). As most in the gas industry already knew, EIA’s study found plenty of gas around the globe, but just how much is hard to determine yet, the agency said Tuesday.

E&Ps Entering Energy ‘Supercycle,’ Say Analysts
The U.S. exploration and production (E&P) sector has entered an energy “supercycle” as the market begins to realize the magnitude of “real” asset growth from the abundance of onshore reserves and the potential from liquids and natural gas shales, said FBR Capital Markets analysts last week.

Shale Could be Empty LNG Tanker Magnet
The abundance of North American natural gas and attractiveness of overseas markets have prompted a second announcement of plans to export liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the Lower 48. Freeport LNG and Macquarie Energy said last week they will develop export capability on the site of Freeport’s existing import terminal in Texas. Macquarie Energy is the North American energy marketing and trading arm of Australia’s Macquarie Group.
