Alaska LNG Concept Information Project Overview

Project Team • BP, ConocoPhillips, ExxonMobil and TransCanada are

working together to progress an Alaska LNG project: − 300+ people involved in project planning and design work − Multiple third-party contractors engaged, including

Alaskans − Leveraging Denali, APP, and related material ($700M past

work)

Project Description • Concept selection work to date:

− Gas treatment plant located on the North Slope − An 800-mile, 42-inch diameter pipeline − Up to 8 compression stations − At least 5 off-take points for in-state gas delivery − Liquefaction plant and marine export terminal located in

south-central region − Lead site is Nikiski

− Preliminary capital investment: $45-$65B

Alaska LNG Concept Information LNG Plant and Marine Terminal Site Selection

• Lead Site – After evaluating more than 20 locations, the Project Team has identified a primarily industrial area near Nikiski.

• The Team has performed considerable technical work for both the location of the plant as well as the viability of Nikiski for LNG tanker operations.

• A Nikiski LNG plant site takes into consideration a pipeline route that provides access to natural gas for: – Fairbanks – Mat-Su Valley – Anchorage – Kenai Peninsula

• Alaska LNG wants to be a good neighbor. • Our goal is to lessen impacts and enhance

benefits to the businesses and residents in the area.

Alaska LNG Concept Information Land Access

• Access to land is part of project development. • Access to land allows further engineering and feasibility studies, including

environmental, geotechnical, soils, groundwater and other research as necessary to confirm the LNG plant and terminal site selection.

• The exact parcels that we want to access are confidential. We do not have a specific timetable for completing the process.

• We hope that we will be able to reach an arrangement with the landowners in the areas we are interested in accessing.

Field Studies • 2013 Summer Field work completed September 2013:

– Cultural Resources: >6,500 acres – Hydrology / Lakes / Fisheries studied: 27 / 17 / 20 – Subsistence and Health Impact Assessments starting

this winter (2013/14) – 150 people involved in field studies (60% Alaskans)

• Alaska LNG is now working to answer key technical questions to reduce uncertainty and continue advancing the project.

• The multi-year field work effort is now underway. • We are working to complete the 2013 program and are

planning for the 2014 season. • The primary scope of field work is to analyze existing

environmental conditions along project footprint – Planning, logistics, and permitting to support

survey work

– Public and agency engagement to support survey work and ongoing project planning

Previous and Current Work Key project design accomplishments • Confirmed ability to integrate into existing

operations • Completed project design concept, announced

Feb 2013 • Finalized LNG Lead Site

Alaska LNG Concept Information Benefits for Alaskans

• A successful Alaska LNG project would provide a host of economic benefits to Alaskans including:

– State revenues – Short and long-term job opportunities – Business and industrial opportunities

• Commercializing North Slope natural gas through the Alaska LNG Project will provide Alaskans access to a cleaner burning and dependable energy source to supply ongoing in-state energy demand via five off-take points along the pipeline route.

• The off-take points would be decided following consultation with State officials and local utilities

Alaska LNG Concept Information Key Issues, Timing and Next Steps

Key Issues − “Mega-project” challenges (labor, resources, equipment, schedule, etc.) − Uncertainty related to permit timing and scope

Next steps − Completing field studies in preparation for regulatory submissions

− Winter Field Season 2013/14 − Summer Field Season 2014

− More detailed engineering and design work for an LNG plant, marine export terminal, LNG tanker fleet, a pipeline and a gas treatment plant

Project timing − Preliminary engineering and environmental studies within a 3-5 year timeframe (depending on

regulatory approvals) − After regulatory approvals are received and funding is secured, final engineering, design,

procurement and construction may be completed in 5-6 years
