JUNEAU, Alaska – Federal analysts believe will not be cost-effective to build a major natural gas pipeline in Alaska for the next 20 years, at least according to a report recently by the energy information administration of the USA.
Study finds domestic energy markets through 2035, high construction costs for rates and lower natural gas wellhead, in terms of 2009, like making a line still during this time. The report represents what Benneche Agency analyst calls its "best of Joe guess what is likely to result."
Two of the pipeline, the Alberta Canada, based on the TransCanada Corp., gas pipeline of Alaska Denali-The, they pursue proposals to bring gas from the North of Alaska to markets in North America or overseas 2020. Cost estimates for different options have ranged from 20 billion 41 billion for a long time to expand into Canada.
TransCanada is ExxonMobil Corp. promote line and up to 500 million in support from doing this as part of signature .Gov. then Sarah Palin Alaska Gasline Inducement Act. Denali working with BP and ConocoPhillips.
Benneche said Wednesday projections call the average price in the lower 48 wellhead to improve the point at which the project financial sense around 2033. After construction, the line can be serviced by 2036 or 2037, he said.
"It's not like we took it" image total energy, Benneche said.
For years, Alaskans have hoped for a pipeline as a way to help shore up revenue from oil production rejects, create jobs and provide a more reliable source of energy. .Gov. light Parnell has expressed optimism the chances of a line, given that they are all now TransCanada Vdnali negotiating with gas producers, and are designed to secure the delivery obligations.
Widely believed a same only one pipeline, if one opens the rule. Officials said their consider factors such as long term gas prices, provide tax rates predictions in evaluating moving forward.
The decision is going to be "up to the companies," said Larry Persily, manages federal natural gas pipeline projects to Alaska.
He said that the report does not worry or overwhelm it. For example, its sales projections do not include proposed changes to federal law or regulations governing, for example, gas shale gas can produce on-demand, create more impressive, Alaska gas Persily said.
A team of Alaska gas line believes that a separate report to the State Commission on outlook gas development project "support of the gas line," said Marc Morones, program manager of the Alaska Gasline Inducement Act.
TransCanada spokesman did not immediately return a call Wednesday. Dover Denali was out of the Office.
