Northern Gas Pipelines: 9-30&10-1, 2002: Insight's 4th Annual Far North Oil & Gas Conference, Calgary Some presentations are reviewed below and available for your downloading.
Chaired by Lawson Lundell
Partner, A.W. (Sandy) Carpenter (NGP Photo, 4-25-01, Edmonton),
Insight's 4th Annual Far North Oil & Gas In his letter to speakers, Carpenter set the event's tone. "Other issues and perspectives continue to affect northern development," he wrote. "To fully understand these influences, we have expanded our outstanding collection of speakers to include presentations on the U.S. Continental Energy Strategy, Canada's response, and the implications of this strategy for Continental Energy Markets." The following speakers were scheduled: Monday, September 30. Doug Matthews, Director of Minerals, Oil and Gas, GNWT; Ric Cameron, Assistant Deputy Minister, Natural Resources Canada-Energy Sector; George L. Person, Jr., Director, Office of American and African Affairs, U.S. Department of Energy; Wayne Sartore, Vice President, Northern Pipeline Development, Enbridge Inc.; Honorable Stephen Kakfwi, Premier, GNWT; Bruce Edgelow, Centre Manager, RBC Royal Bank Oil & Gas Centre; Doug Black, Q.C., National Managing Partner, Donahue LLP; Marcel Hamonic, Manager, Northern Exploration, Shell Canada Ltd.; Rod Maier, Northern Gas Program Manager, Chevron Canada Resources; R.J.

Honorable Stephen Kakfwi,
Premier, Government of the Northwest Territories. Coming a few days after
a major presentation
to industry officials, Kakfwi continued to promote a strong development
message
Of particular relevance to current events, Kakfwi said, "A case in point is the analysis by Alaskan North Slope producers of the feasibility of North Slope gas production. They decided to examine two routes to bring Alaskan natural gas to market: the Alaska Highway route, and the Beaufort Sea / Mackenzie Valley route through the Northwest Territories. Before they could even complete their analysis, the State of Alaska passed a law banning the Beaufort Sea/Mackenzie Valley route. Their decision was based entirely on parochial self-interest, and I believe it has only worked to impede the development of their natural gas resources, not enhance it. If this wasn’t enough, the U.S. Congress introduced a similar amendment in the current U.S. Energy Bill that bans the Beaufort Sea / Mackenzie Valley route. We view these actions not only as an affront to efficient private sector decision-making, but also contrary to the free market ideals that the United States purports to be a fundamental right. Although the Energy Bill Conferees have passed the route ban, another amendment could be far more harmful to the Canadian gas industry. This amendment seeks to provide Alaskan gas production with a price guarantee of $3.25US in Alberta. Now I am sure many of you realize how this price guarantee will distort the North American gas market...."

Jalkotzy first identified values to consider in northern development: "A Northern Frontier; A Sacred Homeland; A Wellspring of Aboriginal Culture." He then identified the rewards: "Economic Growth and Diversification; Improved infrastructure; Improves services; and, billions of dollars of resource revenues and profits." Readers may download Jalkotzy's PowerPoint presentation here. 4. Doug Matthews, Director of Minerals, Oil and Gas, GNWT, said that power generation will contribute to continuing, growing demand for natural gas, that the supply is under pressure and that, "changes are occurring in where the electricity is generated. We are seeing more and more competition between molecules and electrons." He said the increasing trend is to move energy via gas pipeline to points of power production rather than converting gas to electricity for movement via electrical gas transmission lines for long distances. He warned that while demand is growing, not all new supply will come from new frontiers: "While a market gap of 4 bcf/day may be real, it does not follow that your basin’s 4 bcf will fill that gap," he said.
