Anadarko Petroleum Corp. keeps drilling faster all the time, particularly in the Rocky Mountains, the southern and Appalachia regions, according to the company’s latest operations update. Second quarter earnings got a lift from record sales volumes of liquids production.

The cost to build major natural gas pipelines is rising, particularly in the Marcellus Shale, according to a new report.

Connecting wellheads — particularly those in shale gas fields — to gas-fired turbines and burner tips will require billions in spending on midstream infrastructure over the next 25 years, according to a new report. Adding to the projected demand for new pipe, storage and other facilities is the increasing focus on liquids-rich gas production.

Aging pipeline infrastructure will need to be replaced and/or expanded to support the nation’s transition to greater reliance on natural gas, particularly in electric generation, FERC Commissioner John Norris said last Tuesday.

A Wood Mackenzie natural gas analyst told the electric generation sector to keep a close eye on developments in the wholesale gas market, particularly noting how fast demand picks up for North American supplies.

The North American chemical sector has been enjoying the consequences of the boom in liquids-rich shale gas plays. And an abundance of natural gas liquids (NGL), particularly ethane, is likely to continue, according to an analysis by Fitch Ratings.

Domestic natural gas — particularly that from shales — is the fix for a host of problems, including the need for national energy security and measures to address pollution, as well as volatile energy prices, a task force formed last year said in a report released last week.
