Transcript and Presenter's Notes

Title: KITIMAT LNG TERMINAL:


1
  • KITIMAT LNG TERMINAL
  • The shortest route to North Americas energy
    market

2
Kitimat LNG Inc.
  • A privately owned and capitalized Canadian energy
    development company
  • Capitalized with Canadian and US institutional
    investors, management and private investors
  • Core management team of 6
  • Average career spanning 20 years in energy
    markets and infrastructure projects

3
Kitimat LNG Terminal
  • 500 million regasification terminal located on
    the Pacific Coast of North America
  • Provides access to the largest natural gas market
    in the world
  • Community and First Nations fully supportive and
    Regulatory approvals are imminent
  • Construction in 2006 Operational in 2009

4
What is LNG?
  • LNG is natural gas cooled to -160 C where it
    condenses to a liquid
  • Volume reduced 600 times
  • Odorless, colorless, non-corrosive, non-toxic
  • Kept at atmospheric pressure

LNG Safety Record
  • Excellent safety record
  • In existence for 40 years
  • 80,000 carrier voyages worldwide with no sea
    related accidents
  • Advances in technology and monitoring have made
    LNG even safer
  • Vessels must meet stringent international,
    national and regional safety codes
  • State-of-the-art LNG double-hulled carriers used

Kitimat LNG key commercial drivers

North American Gas Supply Price impacts
  • North American supply comes from
  • Conventional gas
  • Coal gas
  • Tight sands
  • Arctic gas
  • Exotics - coal gasification and gas hydrates
  • With or without LNG - the marginal supply source
    is higher cost domestic production or expensive
    crude oil product substitutes
  • LNG is becoming a significant solution to the
    growing gap between supply and market demand
  • LNG supply will not depress the market

10
Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin Initial
Production Rates
  • 3.5x as many wells drilled in 2005 vs. 1998, yet
    total production added from new wells was the
    same at 4.0 bcf/d
  • Initial Production rates have fallen by 75 to
    262 mcf/d over the past 10 years

11
LNG import terminal opportunities
  • 69 existing, proposed, or potential North
    American LNG terminals
  • 5 constructed
  • Only 1 currently approved on Pacific Coast
  • Kitimat LNG Terminal approval imminent

As of June 1, 2006

Kitimat LNG Terminal Location
13
Kitimat LNG Terminal location benefits
  • Grass roots community support
  • First Nations agreement in place
  • Douglas Channel offers a deepwater all season
    port
  • Access to significant Pacific Basin LNG supplies
  • Pacific Northern Gas Pipeline provides access to
    Westcoast Pipeline and the North American grid
  • Two days shorter return sailing times to Kitimat
    for Pacific Basin suppliers compared to other
    proposed North American locations

14
Terminal configuration
  • Offshore LNG tanker berth and unloading jetty
  • Two LNG storage tanks ( permitted for 3)
  • NGL separation unit
  • Send-out pipeline for natural gas

17
Easy access to Canadian and US markets
  • Supply enters major transmission pipelines
  • Access to markets in
  • BC
  • Alberta
  • Pacific Northwest
  • California
  • Mid West and
  • North East

18
Market interest in Kitimat terminal
  • Considerable capacity interest
  • Off-take customers believe their portfolios
    should contain LNG supply
  • Off-take customers have long-term core need in
    natural gas with few long term supply
    alternatives
  • LNG can provide the long term supply alternatives
  • Off-take customers include
  • industrials
  • oil sands projects
  • utilities
  • independent power projects and
  • energy marketers

Kitimat LNG Terminal gas supply options
Additional Pacific Basin supply currently
on-stream or under construction is 26 mt/a

Kitimat LNG strategic advantages
21
Shipping days compared to West Coast terminals
Significant shipping cost advantage at Kitimat LNG
22
At least 2 days shorter sailing times to Kitimat
from Pacific Basin ports
Kenai 2.1 days
Sakhalin 7.2 days
Qatar 22 days
Indonesia 14 days
NW Shelf 16 days
Bolivia 15 days
23
Lower marginal shipping costs to Kitimat
Based on number of shipping days and additional
ships required to move same volume of LNG per year
24
Advantages of Supply Basin location
  • The supply basin provides
  • Back-stopping and supply security for down-stream
    markets
  • Sophisticated physical and financial
    counter-parties
  • Optimization of liquefaction, shipping, storage
    and send-out positions
  • Significantly reduced risks of terminal start-up
    delays
  • Supply basin terminals provide
  • Significantly lower mitigation costs re planned
    or unplanned outages
  • Supply redundancy and flexibility for LNG
    suppliers
  • Suppliers with ability to divert cargoes and
    source domestic replacement gas

25
Exposure to a sophisticated energy market
  • The market is comprised of hundreds of
    credit-worthy counter-parties
  • Demand is growing despite record high gas prices
  • The consuming market is interested in long-term
    price stability
  • LNG supply will provide long-term stable supply

Basis relationships have changed and will change
but LNG netbacks will be similar whether received
at Kitimat or Socal.
