Natural gas is
- clean
- cheap
- plentiful NOT so much
Okay, so, natural gas is cheap. It’s so cheap that the drillers are losing money.
A potential turning point for natural gas
” …balance sheet positions on the whole are in mediocre shape with 2012E debt to cash flows at approximately 1.5 times assuming average $4.50/mcf gas prices.”
The only hope for the Big Gas Mafia is to finagle a way to increase demand and drive prices up.
But, if prices go up, then natural gas is:
- clean
cheap- plentiful NOT so much

NOT CLEAN
NOT CHEAP (wait for the demand/supply function to equillibrate)
NOT SAFE

I heard one of the frackers actually using the low price of gas as a way of selling fracking-he said that the more they drill, the more gas-‘Supply’ there is, and people, especially in the northeast who use gas for heat-the ‘demand’ will actually pay less for gas beacuse there’s more of it. So get out there and drill!
