Alaska LNG could have right heat content for Asia buyers

Alaska's North Slope natural gas would be ready-made for the Asia markets, which prefer the "wet" or "rich" gas compared to the "dry" or "lean" gas other U.S. liquefaction plants process. Natural gas is a blend of hydrocarbons, and the blend varies from s...

520 |a Alaska's North Slope natural gas would be ready-made for the Asia markets, which prefer the "wet" or "rich" gas compared to the "dry" or "lean" gas other U.S. liquefaction plants process. Natural gas is a blend of hydrocarbons, and the blend varies from source. These blends affect the heating value. Buyers will mix additional gases or strip out others to ensure consistency of LNG for their users. The article gives composition of gas from Prudhoe Bay and from Australian and Asian locations. North Slope gas would have to be altered to burn in existing Alaska or U.S. gas systems.
