The Global Gas Glut
Selected Slides for the South Australian NRC Inquiry
into Unconventional Gas (fracking)
Bruce Robertson BEc FFin 10 June 2016
Introduction
• All investment in the gas industry must be assessed in context of a global
gas glut
• Excess supply and faltering demand
• Globally the contract pricing mechanism is breaking down
• East Coast Australia is a high cost gas province
• SA onshore gas has even further to travel making it unviable in a post Paris
world
• SA must compete against cheap piped Russian gas and cheap LNG from
the USA
• The SA government runs a high risk of backing an industry that will be left
stranded in the short term

Global Gas Glut
• The global gas industry closed the 2015 year in a glut
with total nameplate liquefaction capacity of 308Mt
outstripping import demand for LNG of 245Mt by 26%

Re; Inquiry into Unconventional Gas and Fracking in SE of SA
We understand that the Limestone Coast Protection Alliance Inc is writing a submission for this inquiry
and that they do not support unconventional gas and fracking in the SE of SA for the following reasons;
• potential for water contamination caused by spills, leaks, chemicals and accidents
• potential for well integrity failure due to finite lifespan of cement and steel
• potential for air pollution detrimental to health of natural environment, humans and animals
• potential for industrialisation of landscape and fragmentation of native forest reserves and pine
forests
• reduction in enjoyment of natural environment for walking, cycling, canoeing and caving
• air, noise and light pollution and potential for odour impacting on health, enjoyment and safety of use
of natural
