Chesapeake's New Corporate Presentation -- Bakken, North Dakota, USA

Due to my poor wi-fi connectivity, I will post just as this was sent in to me, minimal editing:

The new presentation from Chesapeake has interesting information on the natural gas station project, with map.

pages 11-17

Then page 18 on gas to liquid.

The ratio of LNG semis to volts probably shows more big rigs than coal cars.

Some data points from the presentation that caught my eye:
  • CHK's position in oil and natural gas plays around the country; among the top 10 in the Bakken
  • Targeting liquids, but still a natural gas company
  • Slide 10 is CHK's response to why they remain a natural gas company
  • Natural gas (liquid natural gas -- LNG) highway system: first 90 stations creates interstate coverage coast-to-coast and border-to-border -- the map on slide 15 is awesome; I-94 across North Dakota is part of the LNG highway
  • I love slide 20, a map of CHK's operating areas, and this comment: low risk asset base -- not exposed to economic, geopolitical or technological risks internationally or in the Gulf of Mexico (yes, Virginia, the permitorium is still in effect)
  • I also like slide 26, the in-house services/companies owned by CHK: including NOMAC drilling (in North Dakota); FracTech; OilField Trucking Solutions; and several others
  • Nomac and Bronco rigs
The new buzzword in the oil industry must be "manufacturing" -- I have seen that word in more and more oil company presentations. Here's what CHK said:
"Majority of US natural gas producers will have completed their transition from running "gas factories" making $4/unit widgets to "liquid factories" making $10 - 17/unit widgets."
It's a nice presentation to run through even if you are not invested in CHK, just to see where the US is headed with regard to energy.
