Dennis, thanks for your interesting observations about LNG and its potential for price stabilization in domestic Ngas markets. In order for the mechanism that you envision to work, wouldn't we have to assume that an awfully large proportion of all possible LNG cargoes would be for sale on the spot market, and not otherwise restricted as part of long-term supply agreements? What would your prediction be as to the percentage of LNG production that will likely be tied up under such long-term supply agreements?

Dennis:

If the record LNG imports hold through September it will average 0.7~bcfpd more than last year.

Data through May on EIA for Mexico shows signs that prices have leveled off data to even or slightly more than last year.

EIA data on Canada is astonishing that unless I have an error we are averaging 1.3 bcfpd less imports than in 2002 through May.

So net LNG Canada Mexico we are in the whole 0.6 bcfpd and storage is still filling rapidly.

June, another record month for LNG imports.

50,758 MMcf, a new record, representing 16.7% of the 303,556 MMcf imported in June.

YTD, 201,353 MMcf compared to 96,894 MMcf in the first six months of 2002 and 139,294 MMcF in the first six months of 2001. YTD, this is 10.8% of the 1,861,966 MMcf imported in the first six months of this year.
