*Includes LNG export plants operational
• More refining capacity added to handle increased oil
production and potential for export
• Additional pipelines and gas processing facilities will be
needed to handle changes in the flow of raw material
and finished products
• Potential GTL and LNG export from U.S.
• Petrochemical facilities upgraded and expanded and
potential for new plants in U.S. Northeast
• U.S. economy will benefit from lowered trade deficit and
increase in manufacturing base
• U.S. $ Goes Higher
