Natural Gas vs. Gasoline: Reduced Efficiency?
2012-05-14 17:51:00
Hello folks! Well, it's been a while since I pestered anyone here, so I though it was about time once again ;o) As most will know, the mantra which is recited in any simple SI engine NG conversion is that "efficiency is reduced" during the switchover. So, here comes the question: If you burn 100KB

Now is the Time to Invest in Natural Gas
2012-05-05 03:03:00
Since natural gas prices fell of a cliff in 2008, they have continued to descend further and further — until just recently slipping below $2 per thousand cubic feet (Mcf). Prices have perked up a bit recently, but considering how far it's fallen, it's of little comfort to investors who have tried to catch . . . → Read More: Now is the Time to Invest in Natural Gas
Get Your Natural Gas Shopping List Ready: Eric Nuttall
2012-04-19 22:04:00
The Energy Report: Eric, in your Q411 market commentary for Sprott Energy Fund, you describe 2011 as a challenging year. What made the market so difficult for investors? Eric Nuttall: There were several factors: First, the weather failed to cooperate in Canada, where we had a very extended breakup in southeast Saskatchewan. We had epic levels of rainfall. We also had raging forest fires in parts of Alberta. The weather led to a low level of activity for much of the first half of 2011, and many companies struggled to fulfill their capex programs and meet their production targets.

Natural Gas Air Conditioners Cons and Pros?
2012-04-17 04:52:00
Does anyone have any experience with natural gas air conditioning? I know nothing about it, except that they have a much higher up front cost. There must be a bunch of reasons not to use them, since you hardly hear of them. Now that the price of natural gas is about two dollars per million Btu's (wh

Forget Uncle Sam: The U.S. is Still SWIMMING in Natural Gas ? and Investors
2012-03-21 02:00:00
On Jan. 26, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) released a report showing the United States had about 482 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) of recoverable natural gas reserves in shale formations (not counting conventional basins).   That's a big number by any measure — enough to fuel U.S. energy needs for the next 20 years at the current rate of consumption.   However, before this update, the last DOE projection pegged domestic shale reserves at 827 Tcf — nearly twice as much. So should investors panic? Has the natural gas renaissance we've all been told about — and been positioning to profit from — been a sham?   Here's what you need to know… Before we get any . . . → Read More: Forget Uncle Sam: The U.S. is Still SWIMMING in Natural Gas — and Investors Can Still Profit
The Upside to a Natural Gas Downturn
2012-03-16 20:14:00
The Upside to a Natural Gas Downturn By Marin Katusa, Casey Research The energy market is a complex beast, its many parts interconnected through a multitude of linkages. When one part fails, the entire system reacts: certain linkages are burdened with extra stress, while other components sit idle. Only by studying the entire machine can one understand the rippling effects that stem from one change. With the energy market, the system is made up of various sectors ? oil, natural gas, uranium, coal, and alternative energies ? and the countries that have each of those energy resources. The components are then linked through a long line of forces, including the geographic distributions of supply and demand, international allegiances and . . . → Read More: The Upside to a Natural Gas Downturn
Egyptian-Israeli Natural Gas Contract Casualty of Arab spring?
2012-03-15 21:38:00
As last year’s Arab spring has slowly roiled eastwards from Tunisia to the eastern Mediterranean, the two most concerned governments are the U.S. and Israel, that are watching their carefully constructed defense alignments crumble to the populist forces unleashed. After decades of repression, the Arab "street" is finding its democratic voice, which is rejecting the cozy decades-long security and energy arrangements carefully stitched together by Washington to ensure Israeli security. In the "brave new world" emerging, it is increasingly obvious that the post-Arab Spring governments, inhaling Western democratic ideals relentlessly promoted as the way forward, have a radically different agenda than those proposed by Washington and Tel Aviv. Viewing social upheavals decades ago, in 1973 Henry Kissinger, President Nixon’s . . . → Read More: Egyptian-Israeli Natural Gas Contract Casualty of Arab spring?
The Dawn of the Natural Gas Era: Stephen Taylor
2012-03-01 23:00:00
The Energy Report: There’s some escalating tension in the Gulf of Hormuz between Iran, the U.S. and Israel. Do you think that this will be a catalyst for oil prices in 2012? Stephen Taylor: It may well be. It underscores the need for and the value of assets in politically stable areas. It also bodes well for energy assets in North America and places like Australia and New Zealand. The Middle East has always been a volatile place, but this issue certainly focuses investor attention on the risk in that area. TER: What themes in energy are you positioning for? ST: We like smaller emerging companies that are heavily focused on oil, as well as companies that . . . → Read More: The Dawn of the Natural Gas Era: Stephen Taylor
Get Aboard the Natural Gas Wave with These ETFs!
2012-02-23 16:16:00
Last week Sean Brodrick used my space to tell you some Inconvenient Truths About Alternative Energy. I think he is right on track about the natural gas sector, and you need to pay attention. Just look at what’s happening in the energy markets right now … Iran is cutting off shipments to some of its biggest European customers — just out of spite for the nuclear technology dispute. Who will get dragged into this squabble next? Furthermore — and I bet you’ve noticed — it’s costing more to top off your car’s gas tank these days. We’re almost back to the 2008 “super-spike” gasoline prices in some parts of the U.S. The headlines simply prove Sean’s point: . . . → Read More: Get Aboard the Natural Gas Wave with These ETFs!

Triple-Digit Oil Investing and a Natural Gas Price Rebound: Bill Powers
2012-02-01 01:30:00
The Energy Report: Is it fair to say that you are a value investor? Bill Powers: Absolutely. I’m very much a value investor focused on fundamentals and finding companies that can grow reserves, production and cash flow without taking on too much debt and/or diluting shares. Those are the companies that can have very strong long-term outperformance. That is my theme, and I think it is really powerful right now. The companies I’ve identified do not currently reflect future prices that their stocks will be receiving. TER: Clean balance sheets, steady cash flow and a depressed market price: would that sum it up? BP: Yes. The Canadian junior market has changed in the last 10 years markedly.

The Perfect Trade for the Natural Gas Vehicle Boom
2012-01-31 14:00:00
That car in your garage should be running on natural gas. With oil prices around $100 and unlikely to fall much lower in coming years, and natural gas selling for less than $3 per thousand cubic feet (MCF), the cost differential is far too big to ignore. Consider this: $3 of natural gas gets you about one million BTUs (British thermal heating units) of energy. It takes about eight gallons of gasoline (or about $25 to $30 worth at current prices) to get the same amount of energy. The gas price is wholesale while the gasoline price is retail, but even on an apples-to-apples basis, gasoline is at least five to six times more expensive. So why . . . → Read More: The Perfect Trade for the Natural Gas Vehicle Boom

Mexico ? Rising Natural Gas Superstate?
2011-12-08 20:25:00
Americans looking south of the Rio Grande tend to forget, if they ever knew, that Mexico is, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, now America’s second largest source of imports. Of the United States’ total crude oil imports averaging 9,033 thousand barrels per day (tbpd), Mexico is the second largest source of imports, at 1,319 tbpd, exceeded only by Canada with 2,666 tbpd. But now, Mexico’s future seems even brighter. According to U.S. Energy Information Administration Executive Director Maria van der Hoeven, Mexico’s significant untapped natural gas reserves, if properly developed, could eventually provide Mexico with energy independence. On 29 November in Washington, presenting the most recent EIA report on Mexico van der Hoeven stated, "Mexico . . . → Read More: Mexico – Rising Natural Gas Superstate?

Apocalypse Redux? U.S. Natural Gas Find off Vietnam Could Raise Tensions wi
2011-10-31 18:59:00
First, the good news… U.S. oil company ExxonMobil is reporting a "potentially significant" gas discovery off the coast of Vietnam, stating in a press release, "We can confirm ExxonMobil Exploration and Production Vietnam Limited drilled its second exploration well offshore Danang in August 2011 and encountered hydrocarbons." ExxonMobil is the world’s largest publicly traded oil company by market value. While Vietnam, an oil exporter and the third-largest oil producer in South Asia, began offshore exploration of its reserves in the 1970s, Hanoi only started in 2004 awarding offshore exploration concessions to a plethora of foreign companies, including those from the U.S., Canada and India with ExxonMobil receiving concessions from the Vietnamese government allowing it to explore blocks 117, 118 . . . → Read More: Apocalypse Redux?

Chesapeake (CHK): A 'natural' in natural gas

"If there was ever a stock we can hold for a few years, natural gas company Chesapeake Energy (NYSE: CHK) is it," says Ian Wyatt.In his Top Stock Insights, he adds, "The Obama administration is keen on achieving energy independence for the US. Natural gas is a good option for energy, since it is inexpensive, clean and domestic." Here's his review."Chesapeake Energy is the largest independent natural gas company and most active driller of wells in the US. Its operating activities include the onshore exploration and production of natural gas. "The Obama administration is keen on achieving energy independence for the US. Natural gas is a good option for energy, since it is inexpensive, clean and domestic.
