Lorna Energy Insight News for Thursday, September 20, 2001: Expectations fall for Canada's natural gas 'frontier' Canada's arctic north may not be North America's next big natural gas-producing basin after all.=20 In what one geologist said was a "major, major" reduction in estimated natural gas potential, the Canadian Gas Potential Committee-a volunteer group of 50 geologists and other professionals who assess Canada's undiscovered gas potential-last week reported that Canada's frontier basins= , which include the arctic and Mackenzie Delta regions, may hold no more than 60 to 65 trillion cubic feet (tcf) of gas that ultimately could make it to market.=20 The new estimate falls short of previous estimates that 300 to 400 tcf of gas could be found in the Beaufort Basin, the arctic islands and Mackenzie corridor. It was those estimates that helped encourage geologists, producer= s and a number of U.S.-based power plant developers to consider the north as almost a second Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin (WCSB). Gas from that historically prolific yet now declining basin makes up around 15% of U.S. imports.=20 "We thought the gas was greener," said Rob Woronuk, a senior analyst with the Canadian Gas Potential Committee.=20 Still more potentially bad news came from the committee's report.=20 In what Woronuk said was an "embarrassment," the committee has now decided that Canadian coalbed methane may have less of a role to play than was previously thought.=20 The committee reversed the findings of its 1997 report that estimated coalbed methane could account for up to 270 tcf of Canada's overall 570 tcf natural gas resource.=20 Read the entire story at http://www.energyinsight.com
