2016 Northeast Agenda

• U.S. Gas Demand Outlook
• Are we finally seeing a slowing down or even a decline in supply?
• Renewable growth and it’s impact on the industry
• Assessment of Key Shale Plays: Barnett, HV, Fayetteville & the Appalachias
• Wet gas economics and the weak NGL price
• Prices, Storage, and Infrastructure requirements – what does the future hold?

Panelists will share insights and facilitate a high level discussion about a variety of topics, including:
• Northeast Supply/Demand Outlook
• Infrastructure Constraints in New England and Beyond
• Prospects for Current Natural Gas Surplus
• Gas Demand Forecasts – Northeast Generation Sector
• Transportation Issues
• Risk Management…The New Realities!
• Recent Pipeline Changes & Problems
• How Will Oil and NGL Prices Affect Natural Gas Pricing?

Hear the most recent project updates from the Marcellus, Utica, and beyond and how the industry will be affected. There’s still rapid change on the horizon, so get ready for insights that’ll help set your strategy for the rest of 2016. Updates include:
• Overview of Dominion Projects
• Increased Natural Gas Generation Demand
• Bringing Incremental Supply to the Region by Increasing Capacity on Existing Infrastructure
• Scaled Solutions, Diverse Sources, Strategic Additions
• Overview of Spectra Energy’s Natural Gas Pipeline Expansions
• Meeting the Pipeline Expansion Needs of the Northeast
• Meeting LDC, Industrial, and Power Generation Needs of New England (AIM, Atlantic Bridge, Access Northeast)

North American gas prices are increasingly influenced by new variables, such as the pace of E&P investment, infrastructure expansions, global supply/demand balances and new regulations. The current low commodity price cycle is sending signals to producers and consumers to adjust their investments both domestically and abroad, which will affect future balances and prices. Layer on top of that regulatory and policy changes, and passionate debates about the environment and future of hydrocarbons. Are we doing enough to advocate the role of natural gas in the energy mix?

The Project Panel Discussion continues, because we know you can’t get enough insight! Hear more about project updates from the Marcellus, Utica, and beyond! Details include:
• Developing LNG Markets
• Actual & Upcoming LNG Offer to Supply the Northeast Region
• Update on Construction of Gaz Métro LNG Expansion Project in Montréal
• How LDC’s can Increase Sales & Expand Service Territory Using Virtual Pipeline & Gas Islands
• Integrated & Long-Term Nature of Everett Terminal in Addressing Gas Supply in New England
• Imported LNG Impact on New England Gas Market & Long-Term Alternative to Pipeline Expansion Projects

• 18 Bcf/d of new natural gas pipeline take-away capacity out of the Northeast is being developed.
• Only a fraction will come on before this winter, and less than half is likely to be online before 2018.
• Much more capacity is needed today, but how much more capacity is really needed over the next five years?
• Will there be enough production growth to fill all the new capacity?
• What will be the impact on basis if many pipeline projects are delayed or cancelled?
• And what if the pipes are built but low prices stem production growth?
• How do Eastbound pipes to solve New England’s constraints fit in?
