Arctic National Wildlife Refuge ANWR Alaska arctic image Former governor says it is time to push for gas line Former Governor Wally Hickel comes out swinging (kind of) at a forum in Anchorage, Alaska. Hickel pointed out that the Alaska constitution states that Alaskans own the natural gas within the state. Here is an article from KTUU in Anchorage. Former governor says its time to push for gas line Anchorage, Alaska - It was 28 years ago today that oil began flowing through the trans-Alaska pipeline. Now, 14 billion barrels later, that oil is selling at record prices, almost $57 a barrel this afternoon. It took political arm-twisting to get the trans-Alaska pipeline built. And former Gov. Wally Hickel says thats just what it will take to get the long-stalled natural gas pipeline built. Here are some facts about the Alaska Natural Gas Pipeline: Alaskas North Slope has more than 35 trillion cubic feet of proven natural gas reserves and more than 100 trillion cubic feet of potential reserves. Alaska natural gas development has been hampered by the difficulty and expense of transporting gas from remote North Slope wells to major Outside markets. Alaska Natural Gas Pipeline Facts Here are some facts about the Alaska Natural Gas Pipeline: Alaskas North Slope has more than 35 trillion cubic feet of proven natural gas reserves and more than 100 trillion cubic feet of potential reserves. Alaska natural gas development has been hampered by the difficulty and expense of transporting gas from remote North Slope wells to major Outside markets. North American natural gas supplies are declining more steeply than expected, and demand is steadily increasing. Natural gas is now used for cooking and heating in 70 percent of U.S. homes. It also supplies 40 percent of U.S. industrial energy needs and is the most popular energy source for new and existing electricity generation plants. The proposed Alaska Gas pipeline would follow the 745-mile Alaska Highway route approved by Congress in the Alaska Natural Gas Transportation Act of 1976. The pipeline would initially be designed to carry 4.5 Bcf/d of natural gas at an operating pressure of 2,500 psig. The current system design includes six compressor stations that would use gas turbine compressors rated collectively at 256,000 ISO horsepower. The proposed Alaska gas pipeline is estimated to involve direct costs of $6.3 billion (2002 dollars). The overall project is dependent upon local, state, federal and Canadian regulatory approvals.
