Natural Gas
How we use it, who has it, and what may be changing in the future


Tanya Tickel
of the Gas Technology Institute

February 18th, 2009
at
The Wellington
Arlington Heights, IL

After this talk attendees should feel comfortable discussing current and possible future natural gas consumption scenarios. Current North American supply data and consumption patterns will set the backdrop for the discussion, and will comprise about half of the talk. The growing LNG trade will be discussed in the context of world consumption, and what it means for U.S. supply.

Finally, Tanya will highlight selected areas of research in energy efficiency, alternative supply, and alternative uses of natural gas.

Tanya Tickel is an engineer at the Gas Technology Institute, a not-for-profit that serves the technology needs of the natural gas industry. She joined GTI immediately after receiving her doctorate from Northwestern University in combustion modeling, and has worked on projects involving power and gas rate structures, gas quality, new energy-efficient burner designs for the steel industry, and coal and biomass gasification. She is dedicated to public education and honest dialogue about challenges facing the energy industry, and is pursuing a business degree part-time at the University of Chicago.
