1 ACCF CENTER FOR POLICY RESEARCH SPECIAL REPORT NOVEMBER 2013 LNG EXPORTS: HOW MUCH WILL THEY IMPACT U.S. NATURAL GAS PRICES? BY MARGO THORNING, PH.D. SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT AND CHIEF ECONOMIST AMERICAN COUNCIL FOR CAPITAL FORMATION One important issue in the debate about expediting the U.S. Department of Energy s LNG permitting process is the impact of exports on domestic natural gas prices. U.S. shale gas production, which has risen by 50% over the period, has contributed to the fall in natural gas prices from a high of $11/million cubic feet in 2008 to the current well-head price of about $3.70/million cubic feet. While a recent Black & Veatch survey, 2013 Strategic Directions in the North American Natural Gas Industry concluded that natural gas prices would increase to a range between $4.50 to $7.49 MMBtu (one million British thermal units) in 2020, most analyses forecast that prices will remain below $5.00 MMBtu over the next 5 to 10 years. 1 This issue brief summarizes the recent research from a variety of government organizations and economic consulting firms. How Much Supply? How Much Demand? In most markets, price is determined by supply and demand and natural gas is no exception. Estimates of recoverable supplies of natural gas keep increasing, as shown in Figure 1. For example, in 2012, DOE s EIA forecast 2,203 trillion cubic feet and other credible estimates are much higher, reaching as much as 3,600 trillion cubic feet. Demand for natural gas is projected to rise from 66 Bcf/d in 2012 to 82 Bcf/d in 2018 according to recent projections by McGraw Hill s Bentek Energy. 2 As shown in Figure 2, most of the increase in natural gas demand between now and 2018 comes from the electric power generation sector (5.1 Bcf/d). Residential/commercial, industrial and exports to Mexico and other countries add increments to gas demand that are much smaller than those from power generation. By 2018, potential domestic production will have increased by 14.3 Bcf/d but domestic demand will only have increased by only 8.3 B Bcf/d according to Bentek Energy s projections (see Figure 3). Thus, LNG exports to other countries and pipeline shipments to Mexico can fill the gap between the fast growing U.S. natural gas production capacity and the slower growing domestic demand for gas. LNG Exports and U.S. Domestic Natural Gas Prices A number of analyses conclude that LNG exports in the range 6 to 12 Bcf/d would not have a significant impact on domestic prices. For example, the Peterson Institute for International Economics report Liquefied Natural Gas Exports: An opportunity for America 3 notes that recent economic analyses conclude that LNG exports would raise domestic natural gas prices by only 3.5% to 16.0%. (See Table 1.) In addition, the new Bentek Energy report projections show U.S. natural gas prices will remain in the range of $ 4.18 MMBtu through 2018, see Figure 4. Dr. Margo Thorning is Executive Vice President and Director of Research for The American Council for Capital Formation Center for Policy Research. ACCF Center for Policy Research brings together academics, policymakers, business leaders and the media to focus on important new research on economic, tax, energy and regulatory policies.

2 Table 1. Natural gas price impact of U.S. LNG exports, measured from Henry Hub prices Source: Economic Impact of LNG Exports Multiple economic analyses over the past two years demonstrate the power of allowing U.S. producers to export LNG. 4 Using various assumptions regarding export levels, global market conditions, and the cost of producing natural gas within the U.S. and also examining alternative scenarios that might affect natural gas supply and demand, the vast majority of these analyses have reached the same fundamental conclusion. As explained in the NERA study commissioned by the U.S. Department of Energy: Across the scenarios, U.S. economic welfare consistently increases as the volume of natural gas exports increased. This includes scenarios in which there are unlimited exports. The reason for this is that even though domestic natural gas prices are pulled up by LNG exports, the value of those exports also rises so that there is a net gain for the U.S. economy measured by a broad metric of economic welfare or by more common measures such as real household income or real GDP. 5 tax receipts. The net effects on U.S. employment are anticipated to be positive with net job growth of between 73,100 to 452,300 jobs on average between 2016 and 2035, including all economic multiplier effects. 6 Manufacturing job gains average between 7,800 and 76,800 net jobs between 2016 and 2035, including 1,700-11,400 net job gains in the specific manufacturing sectors that include refining, petrochemicals, and chemicals. The net effect on U.S. GDP is expected to be positive at about $15.6 to $73.6 billion per year on average between 2016 and 2035, including the impacts of associated liquids production, increases in the petrochemical manufacturing of olefins, and all economic multiplier effects. 7 Conclusions As mentioned above, the preponderance of the economic analyses of the impact exports of LNG from the U.S. show positive overall benefits in terms of jobs, investment and GDP growth. In addition, the impact on U.S. domestic natural gas prices rises will be relatively small, thus allowing U.S. customers to maintain a strong competitive advantage over our trading partners. Another macroeconomic analysis by ICF International finds that expanded LNG exports would spur significant gains in nationwide employment, GDP and federal LNG EXPORTS: HOW MUCH WILL THEY IMPACT U.S. NATURAL GAS PRICES? 2
