Event Summary
Unlock the Strategic Link Between U.S. Hydrocarbon Production and Global Exports
This course offers a comprehensive look at how U.S. hydrocarbon exports influence—and depend on—domestic production dynamics. Participants will explore the critical interdependence of oil, gas, and NGL volumes, shaped by natural gas quality standards and regulatory constraints like flaring limits. You’ll learn how the export of hydrocarbon liquids supports gas production and why maintaining balanced capacity across oil, gas, and NGL infrastructure is vital to sustaining U.S. export competitiveness. Ideal for professionals looking to understand the bigger picture behind midstream operations and global energy flows.
Attendees will receive 1.5 Professional Development Hours (PDH) upon completion.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Understand the interconnected roles of gas, oil, and NGL midstream supply chains, and how their coordination is essential to efficient operations and exports.
- Identify key operational and commercial challenges across midstream infrastructure—and how these challenges impact facility financing, permitting, and development decisions.
- Assess how revenue contributions from different hydrocarbons vary based on geological, geographical, and market conditions—and how this variability influences midstream investment risk.
Who Should Attend
- Any relatively new employee of a gas industry entity and experienced gas industry professionals (administrative, financial, operations, legal, marketing, and other disciplines) seeking to broaden their understanding of the importance of exports to US supplies.
