Chalking

Canadian natural gas exporters are chalking up double-digit revenue gains and plowing money into increased drilling.

Canadian exporters are well on their way to chalking up their 14th consecutive annual record for natural gas deliveries to the United States, according to records kept by the National Energy Board. Export volumes rose 10% to 2.88 Tcf in the first three-quarters of the gas contract year ending Oct. 31, compared to 2.62 Tcf delivered to the U.S. during the nine-month period of Nov. 1-July 31 in 1999-2000.
