American Oil and Gas Reporter - December 2018 - 5

DECEMBER 2018

Volume 61 No. 13

THE ISSUE
Descending winter temperatures inevitably send
natural gas demand skyward. This year, early Arctic
blasts that have blanketed the lower-48, along with
a narrower storage buffer, have punctuated the
potential for price volatility and sent near-term
natural gas prices north of $4 an Mcf. According to
the experts at the Natural Gas Supply Association,
the outlook for this winter points to unprecedented
highs in U.S. gas consumption propelled by
expanding export volumes and increased usage in
the industrial and electric generation sectors. Yet,
NGSA projects the dramatic growth in demand will be met by U.S.
producers' record-high output. Next, the Well Stimulation & Completion
Technology reports begin with the results of one of the first attempts to
recover and quantify injected proppant within a stimulated reservoir, while other
articles focus on the Deep Dry Utica Shale play, water management strategies
and the latest in oil field chemistry. AOGR's Insurance Update provides an inside
look from that sector about the forces exerting pressure on that market's
direction, and features new field training trends to minimize well control risks.
Association news includes coverage of COGA, OIPA and PBPA conventions.
