Alrighty, I admit it...I can’t understand a word of this. I don’t know what NGL is, something about natural gas? Does the article mean we have lots of gas but no one is buying it? Why is someone rejecting shale gas and who are they? Please, just a little help for those of us who are not conversant with terms of the petroleum world.

Just what gases make up the gas that is piped into our homes and businesses?

What gasses make up LNG?

What gas or gasses are extracted from shale? ...all that's in your chart?

Okay, maybe I missed it, but when ethane is "rejected", what happens to it?? Discussion in the thread says flaring is regulated so as to be minimized. So where does the C2 go.....reinjected???

Of course, all the polyethylene producers are "loving it" with their feedstock costs dropping like a rock.
