THE NATURAL GAS MARKET

Longer lasting reserves (60 years at current consumption rates) compared to oil reserves (40 years)

A more environmentally-friendly fossil fuel source than either oil or coal

Declining domestic production in OECD countries (primarily in the US and UK)

Economic expansion of large Asian countries (China, India) is leading to a strong increase in their gas demand

Gas reserves are primarily located in the Middle East and Russia

A growing geographical imbalance between supply and demand
