10:00 AM | Keynote Address: Trends and Opportunities in Natural Gas
 Click here for details.Ten years ago, many would say that the main drivers to natural gas were weather and summer hurricanes. Not so today. Today it is much more complex as the world is shrinking and North American natural gas is expected to be more of a global product with great hopes for LNG exports. In this presentation, we will discuss the impacts of crude oil on natural gas and a brief discussion on the supply factors in natural gas. We will close with a look at the possible opportunities in the forward natural gas markets.
