Natural Gas Services: Now You're Cooking

Seasonality is also less of a factor due to the fact that many power plants are using Natural Gas for normal and peak loading. Peak loading occurs during the summer when everyone is running their air conditioners.

Also, the oil sands up in Canada, you know, where the oil reserves equal Saudi Arabia, guess how the oil is removed, they heat up the sand with Natural Gas to separate it out, this will drive up demand for Natural Gas also as the price of oil increases.

Oil and Natural Gas Will Decouple - Big Time

Now that the oilsands companies in Canada can produce effectively due to the higher cost of oil, guess what they will be using to heat up the slurry to drive the oil out of it, you guessed it, Natual Gas, which is a lot cheaper and more plentiful than any other means. Will this drive up the price, you bet!!
