BC and Alberta Demand
• • LNG exports from
Canada; • Mid-West US market; • Pacific Northwest. •
Source: National Energy Board
• Changing gas flows continue to characterize the Canadian natural gas market. • Less Canadian gas into the US Northeast market. • Traditional export points are evolving into import points (ex. Niagara, Chippawa,
Iroquois). • Maritimes to turn from net-exporters to net-importers of natural gas before the end of
the decade; pipeline de-bottlenecking plans in early phases of regulatory review (FERC).
• Canadian production expected to increase to ~19 Bcf/d by 2040. Forecast assumes 2.5 Bcf/d of LNG exports from Canada by 2023. 8 Bcf/d of natural gas available for ex-WCSB export.* *Preliminary results from Energy Futures 2015; to be released in November 2015.
• More Canadian gas will be exported to US Mid-West and US West markets.
