HOUSTON, May 22, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Five hundred decision-makers gather to assess market conditions and make arrangements to buy, sell, and transport natural gas in the Northeast U.S.
Over five-hundred industry professionals convene in Boston in June to assess and analyze the Northeast natural gas market, as well as conduct business transactions. The 24th Annual LDC Gas Forum Northeast takes place June 10 - 12 in Boston, MA. This is the premier gathering for natural gas industry professionals, which is much more than simply a conference in that participants routinely complete transactions during the event.
Natural gas markets are a significant topical issue in the Northeast U.S. The winter of 2018/2019 brought significant price escalation in response to extreme weather. LNG imports into Boston continue to be relied upon to meet peak requirements. There is continued push to "de-carbonize" and increase use of renewable energy sources for power generation. Planned expansion of natural gas infrastructure to meet growing demand has met with fierce resistance resulting in moratoriums to connect new natural gas customers. Meanwhile, U.S. sourced LNG exports to serve global markets are growing substantially. These market conditions translate into potential for volatility and the need for informed decisions on structuring commercial arrangements into the future. The LDC Gas Forum Northeast is the purpose-built event for sharing critical market information, connecting with industry leaders, and facilitating business transactions.
The content program of LDC Gas Forum Northeast incorporates 2 ½ days of keynote presentations, and moderated panels. Keynote addresses include: Dawn Constantin, SVP Marketing & Regulatory Affairs, BP Energy Co.; Donald Raikes, Senior Vice President – Gas Transmission Operations, Dominion Energy; Craig Stevens, Partner, DCI Group/Grow America's Infrastructure Now; Roshan Pujari, Vice President, Bank of America Merrill Lynch; Phillip Carey, VP, Energy Origination, Bank of America Merrill Lynch.
The Program also includes five moderated panels with presentations from: ConocoPhillips; Bank of America; S&P Global Platts; LCM Commodities; Euler Hermes Energy; Southwestern Energy; NiCHe LNG; REV LNG; ODIN LLC; Chart, Inc.; Énergir; Stabilis Energy; Quantum Fuel Systems; Stagecoach Gas Services; Millennium Pipeline Company; Iroquois Pipeline Operating Company; Enbridge; Dominion Energy Transmission; Constellation an Exelon Company; Bank of America Merrill Lynch; Scana Services; Procter & Gamble; National Grid; PBF Energy; and Washington Gas.
This Forum focuses on the Northeast U.S. market, while five other Forums throughout the year address other key regions across the continent.
Participants at the Forum include market leaders, decision makers and subject matter experts. Industry segments represented include gas distribution utilities (LDCs), industrial gas consumers, producers, pipelines, natural gas-fired power generators, LNG terminal operators, merchant LNG providers, marketers, regulators and analysts. The 2 1/2 day format is carefully structured for participants to hear from industry authorities about market developments, network with existing and new colleagues, and ultimately conclude transactions involving purchase, sale and transportation of natural gas.
Even in today's digital age, natural gas market participants appreciate a venue that facilitates face-to-face interaction. The LDC Gas Forum is uniquely structured to meet this requirement and has been the venue of choice for decades. Registration is still available at http://www.ldcgasforums.com/ne/
