Driven by ever increasing demand, a diverse new supply mix is emerging. The gas quality characteristics defining this supply portfolio, most notably those characteristics associated with liquefied NATURAL gas (LNG) and richer, casinghead gas, along with fundamental changes in the economics of traditional gas processing embedded in the value of NATURAL gas vs.
these supply sources provide higher heating value (HHV) natural gas which effectively increases the overall economic efficiency of the interstate natural gas network grid and associated distribution systems through increased thermal carriage per volumetric unit. This fact translates into greater operating returns for pipelines,
