Global Natural Gas Coalition formed by industry organizations, companies
More than a dozen organizations and companies, including the Interstate Natural Gas Association of America (INGAA), recently formed the Global Natural Gas Coalition.
“INGAA is proud to join the Global Natural Gas Coalition,” Don Santa, president and CEO of INGAA, said. “American consumers have recognized enormous benefits from clean, affordable, domestic natural gas, including lower utility bills, lower costs of products made from natural gas and cleaner air. Pipelines are how natural gas is transported both within the United States and to LNG export terminals. This ability to transport and export some of our abundant natural gas will reap benefits for the economy, help our trade balance and provide to global consumers the many benefits of natural gas American consumers already enjoy.”
The new alliance would work to promote the benefits of natural gas as a foundational fuel for economic growth and prosperity worldwide.
Coalition members recently gathered to discuss the benefits of natural gas and receive remarks from Under Secretary of Energy with the U.S. Department of Energy Mark Menezes and Mark Zoback, director of Stanford University’s Natural Gas Initiative.
“The world is in the midst of a fundamental energy transformation where natural gas will be the foundational fuel for economic prosperity throughout the world,” said Dennis V. Arriola, chief strategy officer and executive vice president for Sempra Energy and founding member of the Coalition. “Our Global Natural Gas Coalition brought together groups and individuals to show our strength and provide a voice for natural gas and the many benefits it provides.”
