2 Is Shale Gas In the Driver s Seat???? 3,000 TCF!!!!

3 2002- Mitchell Energy Led the Way

4 Barnett Shale Gas Play With Discovery of the Barnett Shale Everything Changed Abundant Supplies Price Competitive Ready to Use & Efficient Low Emissions Technology Already Exists Lots of Infrastructure in Place Market Growth Potential Domestic Fuel Sustainable for Decades

5 Urban Drilling Issues

6 Is It Safe? Water Use & Recycling Fracking Operations Methane Emissions Disposal & Earthquakes Well Casing & Cement Design Other Remember: It s Domestic!

7 Shale Gas Development UT-Austin & Environmental Defense Fund Study, March 2012 Key Findings: Over 1 Million Fracked Wells in U.S. since Aquifer Contamination: Researchers found NO EVIDENCE associated with Hydraulic Fracking Chemicals 2. Many reports of groundwater contamination occur in conventional oil and gas operations NOT FRACKING. 3. Methane found in water wells in some shale gas areas DUE TO NATURAL SOURCES NOT FRACKING 4. Surface spills of fracturing fluids appear to pose greater risks to groundwater sources..not FRACKING 5. Poor Cement Casing appears to be an issue in some shale wells NOT FRACKING

8 Domestic Independent Producers Are they In The Driver s Seat? Shale Gas Discoveries = Barnett, Haynesville, Fayetteville, Marcellus, Bakken, Eagle Ford, Niobrara, Antrim, etc

9 The Big Boys Jan 10..TOTAL & Chesapeake Now #3, $2.5 Billion! March 10 Exxon-Mobile & XTO Energy $41 Billion!! May 10..Quicksilver Resources partners with ENI (Italy) May 10...Shell $4.7 B! buys East Resources (Marcellus) Nov 10 Chevron acquires Atlas Energy $4B! (Marcellus) Dec 10 CNOOC.1B! in Chesapeake Energy-Barnett Jan 11..Quicksilver lease agreement-reliance Energy (India) Feb 1 11 CNOOC-1/3 of Niobrara (Colo) with CHK May 5 11 Chevron Buys Chief O&G in Marcelleus Jan 2012 Marubeni (Japan) in Eagle Ford (52,000 acres) Are these companies now In the Drive s Seat?

10 Expanding NG Markets!! Back-UP Fuel CNG Transportation Fuel LNG Base Fuel Hydrogen Source

11 Choosing Natural Gas Vehicles Do we have enough natural gas? Do we have the infrastructure? What are the benefits? What are the costs?

12 Another Approach Driving The Market!

18 NGVs = The Big Game!! 1,000 3,000

19 What to do? Regulation or Incentives? Water Recycling Size of Fracking Operations Methane Emissions Disposal & Earthquakes Well Casing & Cement Design Other Remember: It s Domestic!

24 NGV Facts Facts about Natural Gas Vehicles * There are about 120,000 NGVs on U.S. roads today and more than 14.8 million worldwide. * There are about 1,000 NGV fueling stations in the U.S., about half of which are open to the public. * There are also Home Refueling Appliances available. * In the U.S., about 30 different manufacturers produce 100 models of light-, medium-, and heavy-duty vehicles and engines. * Natural gas currently costs from $1.50 $2.00 less per gasoline gallon equivalent (GGE). * In the U.S. alone, NGVs offset the use of nearly 360 million gallons of gasoline in * NGVs meet the strictest emission standards, including California s AT-PZEV standard. * NGVs are as safe as or safer than traditional gasoline or diesel vehicles.
