7-15-14 LNG Forum In Anchorage Tonight

Today's LNG Community Meeting In Anchorage EPA Land Grab By Bill White   It’s been clear that the executive branch of the federal government is working overtime to extend its authority. This started long before Obama became president, but it has accelerated at an alarming rate since he took office. Obama’s administration has put out more regulations per week than any before, each of which extends EPA's authority to reach into people’s lives and control them and their businesses. While the IRS has the reputation of being the most insidious of all government [...]

5-21-14 BREAKING NEWS: “Hollywood & Washington” Use “Smoke and Mirrors” To Fight US Energy Independence

We Provide For Readers and Our Archives This Breaking News Evidence Of The Enviro-Industrial-Governmental Cabal. Commentary By Dave Harbour Here is more evidence, a VeritasVisuals video released yesterday, that environmental activists, Hollywood (NGP Photo) entertainment industry producers and actors and Washington (NGP Photo) work together to end "... American energy independence", "Fracking", and "Keystone XL Pipeline" endeavors. It will be interesting to see whether or not national news media employees ( i.e. who are not necessarily fact oriented 'journalists') and columnists cover this dramatic example of what some tribunals might label "treasonous behavior" or [...]

5-13-14 Hanging In There Together

 “Let’s Hang In There Together” by Dave Harbour At the signing of the Declaration of Independence – in the face of political oppression -- founding father Benjamin Franklin urged his fellow countrymen to, “…all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately.” See last week's report and photos: Alaska Mining Day! Today, the enemy of freedom and economic stability – as we have demonstrated – is a dedicated enviro-industrial-governmental cabal perhaps more menacing than King George’s foot guards, fusiliers  and lancers.  Why is this so? Today's Wall Street Journal Joins [...]

Kenai Peninsula Clarion Editorial.  Last week, Gov. Sean Parnell created a municipal advisory board to weigh in on issues surrounding a natural gas pipeline project that could eventually tie communities together from Prudhoe Bay to Nikiski (i.e. See News Miner Story).​  While it’s laudable that the governor chose to allow several of those communities to weigh in — representatives from North Slope, Fairbanks North Star, Denali, Matanuska-Susitna, and the Kenai Peninsula Borough will be able to weigh in — we find other parts of the pipeline development process to be troubling.   More....

Washington Post Editorial.  DEBATE HAS raged over whether the United States can fight Vladimir Putin on the Russian president’s most favorable ground: energy politics. It can, and it should, particularly because there’s an obvious path forward that coincides with the United States’ — indeed, the world’s — economic interests. That path is lifting irrational restrictions on exports and making it easier to build natural gas export terminals. Comment:  This comment and our archives will supplement the adjacent story.   Late last year we began documenting with more and more detail the relationship of socialist [...]

Weekend Energy Clips: FuelFix (blog): The War on Energy is Underway, Op-Ed by David Holt (NGP Photo)    ...   Far too often energy consumers are confronted by organizations which promote one narrow view.  The answer is always the same: No. No to ANWR; No to Keystone XL; No to the Gulf. No to wind. No to transmission lines. Anti-development activists see only a binary world. Do nothing or face disaster. These narrow views are contrary to the attitudes that have driven America to succeed. As a country, Americans have long prided [...]

Upon inquiry, ConocoPhillips provides us with the latest status on its Kenai Peninsula LNG export facility, below.  We regard this as very good news because it helps assure Cook Inlet explorers that they might have both domestic and foreign markets for their gas discoveries.  Absent foreign markets, the domestic market alone could be insufficient to provide adequate, long term gas exploration incentives.  -dh  With support from many local stakeholders, and in consideration of a request from the State of Alaska, ConocoPhillips Alaska (COPA) has submitted an application to the U.S. Department of [...]
