Here's a better idea for the North Slope gas. The industry should build a pipeline right next to the Trans Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS), which runs to Valdez and carries oil from the North Slope. Then, build a Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) facility and ship the gas to Europe, which is desperate to reduce dependence on Russian sources of energy.

and here is a better, and more economical idea: build LNG facility on the north slope, and class 8 ice breaker LNG tankers-they would be cheaper than a gas pipeline. The distance to Asian and European markets from the NW passage is very short (look at a globe and see for yourself).
