Powerhouse consulting firm McKinsey & Co. recently released the "North American gas outlook to 2030" report (summary below) with some interesting findings. Among them: Natural gas production in the Marcellus/Utica will rise an average of 6% per year from now until 2030 (next 11 years). And because of the huge supply of gas coming from M-U and the Permian, the price of natural gas will average $2.75 per thousand cubic feet (Mcf) for the long-term, perhaps even a bit lower than $2.75. That's certainly unwelcome news--but we have to know what we're dealing with to know how to meet the challenges ahead.
