YOUR INNER MARKET

摘要

Lowering finding and development costs vies for a top spot on the list of "musts" for oil and gas producers. But efficient operations are nothing less than the Holy Grail for natural gas-leveraged companies in today's lower price environment. Some players are taking the lead in seeking internal markets for their gas supply. Encana Corp. has been a long-time leader in these efforts, along with Chesapeake Energy, Pioneer Natural Resources, and other gas-focused producers. Today the Calgary-based firm has a number of initiatives under way to integrate natural gas into its operations to improve its bottom line, reduce its environmental footprint, demonstrate demand potential, and improve its social license to operate.
