EXECUTIVE SUfiiMARY
This report compares estimates of how much oil and gas Alaska has in reserves
with estimates of how much oil and gas Alaska will consume in the 15 years
between 1986 and 2000. The report is issued each year to comply with AS
38.05.183(d), which states:
"(d) Oil or gas taken in kind by the state as its royalty share may not
be sold or otherwise disposed of for export from the state until the
commissioner determines that the royalty-in-kind oil or gas is surplus
to the present and projected intrastate domestic and industrial needs.
The commissioner shall make public, in writing, the specific findings
and reasons on which his determination is based and shall, within 10
days of the convening of a regular session of the legislature, submit a
report showing the immediate and long-range domestic and industrial
needs of the st~te for oil and gas and an analysis of how these needs
are to be met. ••l
Chapter 1 describes the state's royalty oil program, cites sources of past oil
and gas disposals, reviews disposals made during 1985 and outlines the
disposals proposed for 1986.
High, mid and low estimates of oil and gas reserves, and their respective
royalty shares, are given in Chapter 2. Whereas high estimates are somewhat
probabilistic and assume increasing oil prices, mid and low estimates are
derived from proven and probable reserves and assume relatively stable oil
prices. These more modest figures, therefore, are prudent values for long
range policy considerations. The mid range oil estimate is 9.5 billion
barrels of oil, yielding a 1.2 billion barrel state royalty share. Of this
royalty share, 98.7% is on the North Slope. The mid range estimate of gas is
40.8 trillion cubic feet. The state's share of this gas is 4.9 trillion cubic
feet. Again, 92.7% of the gas is on the North Slope.
Production estimates of reserves are also given for the 15 year period. North
Slope oil production will peak at about 1.9 million barrels per day in 1987,
and will then decline to about 700,000 barrels per day by 2000. Cumulative
state oil production is expected to be about 6.9 billion barrels. By then,
Cook Inlet production will continue to be comparatively modest.
Chapter 3 presents historical data on production and consumption of Alaska oil
and gas. Between 1978 and 1985, oil fuel consumption grew 8.9% per year to a
total of 1.4 billion gallons in 1985, while in the same period gas consumption
grew 3.3% to 217 billion cubic feet in 1985. These figures are the starting
points for the consumption projections detailed in Chapter 4.
Chapter 4 presents forecasts of oil and gas consumption from 1986 to 2000.
Alaska will consume about 26 billion gallons of fuels and 3.7 trillion cubic
feet of gas during that period. Consumption growth rates will be considerably
lower than they have been until now; it is estimated that during the period,
annual growth will be 1.9% for oil and 1.3% for gas. The methods and
assumptions used in generating the forecasts are included.

In Chapter 5, estimates of state reserves and future production are compared
with estimates of future consumption. The comparison shows that for the next
15 years, Alaska's supply of oil and gas will be greater than consumption.
The supply and demand projections used in this report are uncertain estimates
by nature, and should be viewed as likely outcomes. They are applicable only
if the underlying assumptions presented here are approximated by future
events. For example, in-state consumption will be influenced by economic and
population growth which in turn will be fueled by world energy and natural
resource prices. Development of the Susitna hydroelectric project would
dramatically affect the in-state demand for natural gas, particularly after
the late 1990s. The potential growth of a natural gas export market would
similarly affect in-state natural gas availability as well as prices.
The supply side of the in-state balancing equation also is probabilistic. The
mid-range estimates of oil and gas resources (9.5 billion barrels, 40.8
trillion cubic feet) are reasonably certain. However, development of a system
for natural gas from the North Slope remains uncertain. Estimates of
undiscovered resources must be treated as highly speculative and of minimal
value for planning or projection purposes. Even if these undiscovered
resources exist (which they may not), there is no guarantee that they will be
discovered or developed in an appropriate time-frame (if ever) to assure
long-run continuous hydrocarbon supplies. Fiscal resources devoted to the
hydrocarbon discovery and development process by the major oil firms will be
largely determined by world market conditions, not by surplus or deficit
conditions in Alaska's relatively small intrastate market.
In summary, under reasonable assumptions about in-state reserves and consump-
tion, not only is the current inventory of hydrocarbon reserves more than
adequate to meet the estimated demands of Alaskans for the next 15 years, but
significant quantities of hydrocarbons are surplus to requirements and
therefore are available for export from the state.

CHAPTER 1
ROYALTY OIL PROGRAM
When a landowner sells the right to explore for and develop oil and gas, it
usually reserves to itself a percentage of the oil and gas ultimately produced
if the explorationis successful. That percentage is known as a royalty
interest or royalty share. The State of Alaska holds a royalty interest in
the lands it has leased for oil and gas exploration and development, and is
currently receiving royalty payments from oil and gas production in Cook Inlet
and on the North Slope.
Under Alaska Statutes and the terms of state oil and gas leases, the state can
take its royalty share of oil and gas either 11 in-kind 11 or 11 in-value. •• When
the state takes its share of production in-kind, the Commissioner of Natural
Resources, acting on behalf of the state, disposes of the oil or gas through
negotiated contracts or competitive sales. When royalty shares are taken
in-value, or in money, individual lessees market the state's share of
production and reimburse the state accordingly.
The history of the state's royalty in-kind disposals to January 1, 1983 may be
found in the department's Review of Alaska Rotalty Oil of that date. The long
term negotiated royalty in-kind disposals tohevron U.S.A., Inc. and Tesoro
Alaska Petroleum CompanY of December 9, 1983, and to the Golden Valley
Electric Association (GVEA) of February 8, 1985 were reviewed in the 1985
Historical and Projected Oil and Gas Consumption report (Supply/Demand
study). The delivery of ANS royalty oil to Chevron and Tesoro began in May
1984 and October 1985, respectively. GVEA began taking ANS royalty oil under
its new contract in July 1985. The 1985 Supply/Demand study also addressed
the termination of the Tesoro Cook Inlet royalty oil contract in October 1985,
at which time the state began receiving Cook Inlet royalty oil in value, as
well as the competitive royalty oil sale of December 1984 and its attendent
contingent backup disposals.
One royalty in-kind disposal in addition to the GVEA royalty oil disposal
occurred in 1985. This was the disposal resulting from the department's April
18, 1985 solicitation to sell 15,000 bpd of Kuparuk.royalty oil. The contract
term of six months called for delivery of Kuparuk royalty oil upon the October
1, 1985 expiration of the six-month competitive contracts resulting from the
1984 competitive sale. The termination of the royalty oil contracts resulting
from the solicitation of April 18, 1985 will coincide with the April 1, 1986
termination of all outstanding competitive royalty oil contracts.
At this time North Slope royalty oil is taken both in-value and in-kind.
Three in state refiners, Chevron, Tesoro, and MAPCO Petroleum, Inc., hold long
term negotiated contracts with the state for the purchase of Prudhoe Bay
royalty oil taken in-kind. Tables 2.2A and 2.28 depict estimated total North
Slope production to 2012 and current North Slope royalty oil sales. In
addition to the three in-state refineries mentioned above, these sales include
the GVEA disposal, the one year competitive royalty contracts resulting from
the 1984 competitive sale, and the six-month Kuparuk River Unit royalty
contracts resulting from the solicitation of April 18, 1985.
-3-
On September 16, 1985 the department issued a document entitled Analysis and
Recommendations for Disposition of State Ro~alty Oil (Analysis). The Analysis
reviewed the state's December 1984 competit1ve sale and the solicitation of
April 18, 1985, and evaluated negotiated royalty oil disposal options
resulting from the department's Solicitation for Proposal(s) to Purchase
Prudhoe Ba and/or Ku aruk River Unit Ro alt Oil of A ril 1 1985
o 1c1ta 1on • ter cons1 er1ng comments rom t e oya ty 1 and Gas
Development Advisory Board, legislators and many members of the public, the
Commissioner of Natural Resources determined that the state's interests would
be best served by a negotiated long term sale to Petro Star, Inc. (Petro Star)
and Chevron, and additional short term competitive sales. That policy was
implemented through the department's Final Findings and Determination to Sell
Kuparuk River Unit Royaltt Oil to Petro Star, Inc. and Chevron U.s.A., Inc. of
December 9, 1985 and the inal Findings and Determination to Conduct a
Competitive Sale of Prudhoe Bay Royalty Oil of December 13, 1985.
Under the proposed contract with Petro Star and Chevron, the department
intends to sell approxamately 6,500 barrels per day of royalty oil from the
Kuparuk River Unit. Of this volume, a maximum of 2,500 barrels per day will
be sold to Petro Star and about 4,000 barrels per day will be sold to Chevron,
with both sales occurring under a single long-term noncompetitive contract.
The volume to be sold is expressed as a percentage of unit production. Owing
to its long-term nature, the Petro Star/Chevron royalty oil contract requires
legislative approval. The department also intends to hold a short-term
competitive royalty oil sale on February 4, 1986 for 9.6 percent
(approximately 18,000 barrels per day) of state royalty oil from the Prudhoe
Bay Unit. Since the term (six-months) of these competitive contracts is less
than one year, legislative approval is not required for this disposal.
The terms and conditions of the above planned disposals may be found in the
final findings and determination documents referenced above. Such decision
documents have accompanied all of the state's previous royalty in-kind
disposals and likewise describe the terms and conditions of those disposals.
During 1986, several ammendments to Tables 2.2A and 2.28 may be expected as a
result of 1) the termination of the competitive contracts issued for the
competitive sale of December 1984, 2) the termination of the Kuparuk River
Unit royalty oil contracts resulting from the solicitation of April 18, 1985,
and 3) the two new disposals mentioned above, which are expected to take
effect in 1986.
As mentioned, the state began taking all Cook Inlet Royalty oil in-value on
October 1, 1985. The department's decision to convert Cook Inlet royalty
in-kind to royalty in-value was based on the state's desire to have Cook Inlet
royalty oil available for foreign export. Following the federal
administration's October 28, 1985 announcement of its intention to permit the
export of oil produced in Cook Inlet, the department issued the Cook Inlet
Royalty Oil Export Sale Comment Document on November 25, 1985 (Comment
Document). The Comment Document outlined the department's tentative schedule
and terms for a proposed competitive sale of approximately 4,000 bpd of
royalty oil gathered on the west shore of Cook Inlet for exeort to and
refining in Japan. The department's desire to negotiate a backup .. or
contingent royalty oil contract to facilitate the competitive royalty oil sale
was also outlined in the Comment Document.
-4-
Pursuant to the department's intent, the Preliminary Findings and Decision for
West Side Cook Inlet Robalt~ Oil Solicitation for Backup Contract was
published on December ~. 1 85. That preliminary finding addresses the
solicitation for a negotiated backup purchase of the west side Cook Inlet
royalty oil proposed for competitive sale and export to Japan. The primary
purposes of the proposed backup contract are 1) to insure that the state will
have a responsible purchaser for the royalty oil nominated for in-kind
disposal for the competitive export sale, and 2) to allow the department to
reduce the lag time between the sale and delivery of royalty oil. The
selection of a backup purchaser and the publication of a final finding is
expected soon after the close of the comment period, which is January 20, 1986.
The execution of a backup contract and subsequent six-month notice to commence
taking west side Cook Inlet royalty oil in-kind (to enable near term delivery
for the proposed competitive export sale) is predicated on the planned actions
of the federal goverment, which are subject to postponement. Nevertheless,
the department expects that the present in-value status of Cook Inlet royalty
oil will change in 1986 as a result of the anticipated backup royalty oil
contract and the planned competitive Cook Inlet royalty export sale.

CHAPTER 2
RESERVE ESTI~~TES AND ROYALTY SHARE
This chapter discusses estimates of oil and gas reserves in the state and the
state's royalty share of these reserves. The reserve estimates have been
developed for low, mid and high cases. Terms of individual oil and gas lease
contracts were used to calculate the state's royalty share of the respective
reserves. The low estimates assume stable to falling oil and gas prices and
less satisfactory than predicted reservoir performance. The high estimates
assume rising oil and gas prices and better than expected reservoir
performance. The mid case estimates assume stable oil and gas prices and
average reservoir performance.
The estimated reserves and royalty share for oil and gas are shown in Table
2.1. The estimates have been developed separately for Cook Inlet, the North
Slope and the "undiscovered" category, as different sources of information
were drawn upon for each category.
Cook Inlet
Considerable historical and subsurface information is available about the oil
and gas reserves in the Cook Inlet area, and major (i.e. large) new oil
discoveries are not considered likely at this time. The reserves are assumed
to remain constant for low, mid and high estimates. Cook Inlet reserves
account for about 1.8% of the low, 1.3% of the mid, and 0.9% of the high
estimates of statewide total proven and probable oil and gas reserves.
North Slope
Oil and gas reserve estimates shown in Table 2.1 are for currently leased
state lands.
Current North Slope oil production is from the Sadlerochit reservoir in the
Prudhoe Bay Unit and the Kuparuk River reservoir in the Kuparuk River Unit and
the Kuparuk River Formation in the Milne Point Unit. Full scale production
from the Lisburne Reservoir is expected to commence in 1986 and production
from the Endicott field in the Duck Island Unit is expected to commence in
1988. There also are some pilot production programs underway in the Lisburne
reservoir and in the shallow Cretaceous sands. Additional enhanced oil
recovery operations at Prudhoe Bay Unit, over and above what is already
planned, recovery of gas condensate and natural gas liquids from the
Sadlerochit and Lisburne gas caps and enhanced oil recovery from the Lisburne
reservoir represent an oil resource (versus oil reserves) of about two billion
additional barrels of liquids that may, or may not, be economically
recoverable some time in the future. Enhanced oil recovery operations are
extremely sensitive to capital costs and well head prices. Recovery of
liquids from the Sadlerochit and Lisburne gas caps (and absent gas sales,
concomitant reinjection of the dry gas back into the reservoirs) would require
additional investment by the respective gas cap owners. The possibility for
conversion of any of the above mentioned resources to the proven reserves
category and the timing of that conversion must be view as speculative at this
time.
-7-
Various lease holders on the North Slope continue to experiment with
techniques to economically produce the vast amounts of oil held in the shallow
Tertiary and Cretaceous age sands located west of Prudhoe 8~. Technology and
equipment alreaqy exists to produce these types of deposits in more temperate
climates. However, permafrost considerations, surface-related construction
and operating constraints, and the projected well head price of the produced
oil to date have combined to s~ie any commercial development of these
relatively shallow (but large) reservoirs. Pilot production projects and
laboratory testing continue in an effort to improve project economics.
Tables 2.2A and 2.28 lists production forecasts for some of the fields listed
in Table 2.1. Figure 2.1 graphically portr~s these estimates. As
illustrated, North Slope production is expected to increase slightly until
1987~ then begin to decline in 1988.
Currently, no gas is exported from the North Slope. The Alaska Natural Gas
Transportation System for carrying gas to the Lower 48 is targeted for comple-
tion in the early 1990's at the earliest, but it is uncertain when
construction of the line will actually commence. The proposed pipeline
capacity will permit exports in the range of 2.0 to 2.4 billion cubic feet
per d~, with an expected level of 2.0 billion cubic feet per d~.
Alternative marketing of North Slope natural gas is being considered, but
these prospects are also very uncertain at this time.
Undiscovered Resources
Estimates of undiscovered oil and gas resources in Alaska are discussed here
for the reader's information only and have not been used in the forecasts
developed in this report. The United States fiiinerals Management Service (MMS)
estimates the quantities of conventionally producible reserves based upon both
public and confidential information to which it has access. At the 95%
confidence level, the mean MMS estimates of undiscovered resources are 3.3
billion barrels of oil and 13.8 trillion cubic feet of gas.l National
Petroleum Council (NPC) resources estimates require yields on investment of
greater than 10% for oil and gas and 15% for oil alone before a field is
considered "commercial. •• With these thresholds in mind, NPC estimates that
17.8 billion barrels of undiscovered oil and 10.~ trillion cubic feet of
undiscovered gas could be produced commercially. A majority of the oil and
gas resources identified by the MMS and the NPC are likely to be found on
federal and private lands.

Oil Production
CHAPTER 3
HISTORICAL OIL AND GAS PRODUCTION AND CONSUMPTION
Aside from a minor amount produced from Katalla field before 1933, all
significant Alaska oil has been produced from two areas, Cook Inlet and the
North Slope. Cook Inlet fields have produced a total of 1.058 billion
barrels, including an estimated 17 million barrels in 1985. North Slope
fields have produced a cumulative 4.556 billion barrels, of which about 647
million barrels were produced in 1985. Historical oil production data are
shown in Table 3.1 and Figure 3.1. More specific data and information on
individual fields are included in Appendix A.l, A.2, and A.3.
Oil Consumption
Nearly a11 of the oil products consumed in Alaska are refined fuels. ~uch of
these fuels are refined in state, and the balance is imported (see Chapter 5
for further discussion). Figures 3.6 through 3.11 show Alaskan coastal fuel
movements in 1981.
The state Division of Revenue (DOR) collects and reports fuel sales from
distributers. The major categories of this data are shown in Table 3.2 and
Figure 3.2. During the nine year reporting span, aviation fuel data probably
indicate the general quantity consumed and end use of these fuels. Other
categories, however, are less reliable both in quantity consumed and end use.
This is due to interaction of many factors affecting the reports sent to DOR,
year by year, including variability in completions of reports, shifts in
taxation and alternation between reporting categories. The most spectacular
effect of these, and possibly other, factors are the large changes between
1984 and 1985 sales, when 11 0ther Diesel" increased 50%, "Marine Gas 11 increased
88% and 11Marine Diesel" decreased 27%.
Gas Production
Natural gas is produced from the same areas as oil, Cook Inlet and the North
Slope. Production data for these areas are given in Table 3.3 and Figure
3.3. Cook Inlet fields began production in the mid 1960's and since then have
produced about 4,742 Billion cubic feet to the end of 1985. Of the estimated
1985 production of 303 billion cubic feet, 29.0% was injected, resulting in
net production (i.e. net of injection) of 215 billion cubic feet. Since North
Slope production began in the mid 1970's, cumulative production has been about
5,680 billion cubic feet to the end of 1985. Of the estimated 1985 production
of 1019 billion cubic feet, 81.3% was injected for a net production of 109
billion cubic feet.
-13-
Gas Consumption
Table 3.4 and Figures 3.4 and 3.5 show gas consumption data from 1971 to
1985. Between 1978 and 1985, Cook Inlet gas sales increased by an annual
average of 2.6%, while field uses decreased by 5.3%. Of the net 215 billion
cubic feet produced in 1985, 197 billion cubic feet (91.6%) were sold and 18
billion cubic feet (8.4%) were consumed in field operations. Of the gas sold,
33% was exported as LNG, 27% was used to produce Ammonia-Urea, 20% was
consumed for electrical generation, 11% went to producers and 12% was sold to
gas utilities. (These percentages total to 103%, a result of discrepancies
between data sources).
Most of the net North Slope gas production is consumed in field operations and
the remainder is sold, primarily to TAPS. In 1985, of the net 109 billion
cubic feet produced, 89 billion cubic feet (81.7%) was used in field

CHAPTER 4
CONSUMPTION FORECAST
A projection of consumption of oil and gas for the 15 year period from 1985
1999 was prepared by the Institute for Social and Economic Research (ISER) for
the January 1985 issue of this report. The ISER projection has been retained
in this report except for two adjustments: projected consumption of Aviation
Jet fuel has been reduced because of lower than expected actual consumption in
1985, and projections for all catagories have been extended one year to the
year 2000.
Summary
Consumption of oil and gas in all major categories is forecast to increase in
future years.
Consumption of liquid petroleum will increase from 1,507 million gallons in
1986 (about 36 million barrels of crude oil equivalent) to 1,970 million
gallons in 2000 (47 million barrels). This represents a 1.9 percent annual
growth rate. The five and ten year annual growth rates are 1.6 and
1.9 percent, respectively. Space heating use of petroleum will grow 2.0
percent annually. Vehicle transportation use will increase 2.0 percent
annually. The use of fuel oil for electricity generation in 1986 reflects the
introduction of several hydroelectric facilities which replace fuel oil
generation. Fuel oil consumption subsequently increases, and the 15-year
growth rate will be 3.1 percent annually. Industrial use of petroleum liquids
will remain constant.
Consumption of natural gas will grow from 218 billion cubic feet in 1986 to
262 billion cubic feet in 2000 (annual growth of 1.3 percent). Although
industry currently consumes the majority of natural gas and is forecast to
continue to be the dominant user, growth of gas use for space heating will
outstrip growth in industrial use. Over the next 15 years, use of gas for
space heating will increase from 21.0 billion cubic feet in 1986 to 36.0
billion cubic feet in 2000 (3.9 percent annual growth). Use of gas for
electricity generation will grow from 38.0 billion cubic feet in 1986 to 45.0
billion cubic feet in 2000 (1.2 percent annual growth). The consumption of
natural gas for industrial uses will grow from 158.0 billion cubic feet in
1986 to 182.0 billion cubic feet in 2000 (1.0 percent annual growth}.
Transportation Liquid Fuels
Transportation fuel consumption will grow moderately with population growth in
future years, increasing from 1,190 million gallons in 1986 to 1,578 million
gallons in 2000 (Table 4.1}. Jet fuel consumption will grow most rapidly (3.3
percent annually}, followed by diesel fuel consumption (1.3 percent annually)
and gasoline (0.4 percent annually).
Fuel-use efficiency will increase in all types of uses but will be most
evident in highway gasoline consumption which is projected to decline on a per
capita basis. _______ _
lsee Appendix B for methodology and assumptions.
-29
Total consumption projected over the 15-year period from 1986 to 2000 is
20,411 million gallons. This is approximately equivalent to 486 million
barrels of crude oil.
Space Heating
The majority of fuel oil used for space heating is consumed outside the rail-
belt although fuel oil is important where natural gas is not available. Out-
side of the railbelt, most space heating is done with fuel oil. Fuel oil con-
sumption for this use grows from 181 million gallons in 1986 to 239 million
gallons in 2000.
Space heating fuel consumption will increase moderately with population and an
increase in the size of the building stock relative to population. Natural
gas use will grow more rapidly than fuel oil use, from 21.0 billion cubic feet
in 1986 to 36.0 billion cubic feet in 2000 (Table 4.2).
The relatively rapid growth of natural gas use is attributable to the rapid
population growth in the railbelt, as well as to the extension of the natural
gas market into the Matanuska Valley. The expansion of the natural gas market
is estimated to increase gas use by about 9 percent by 1995. Barrow, on the
North Slope, is the only location outside of the railbelt presently served by
natural gas.
Utility Electricity Generation
Fuel oil use for utility electricity generation will grow at an average annual
rate of only 1.2 percent. This is due to the availability of power from
several recently completed hydroelectric plants in locations currently using
fuel oil for generation.
Natural gas use for utility electricity generation will exhibit strong growth
in the next 15 years as the majority of incremental electricity demand growth
in the railbelt is met with additions to natural gas-fired generation.
Natural gas use increases from 38.0 billion cubic feet in 1986 to 45.0 billion
cubic feet in 2000. The percentage of electricity in the railbelt provided by
natural gas reaches a high of 81 percent in 1992 but declines in 1993 to 72.9
percent, when the Bradley Lake hydroelectric facility comes on line.2 After
1993, the proportion of railbelt electricity generated by natural gas begins
to increase, reaching 75.4 percent in 1999.
Industrial Fuel Use
The major industrial use of fuel oil (not including transportation) is in the
petroleum industry. Pipeline fuel for the Alyeska pipeline is the largest
element of this use. In addition, a significant amount of fuel is used for
electricity generation. Both of these uses are projected at constant levels.
Increased use of natural gas in future years will be related to petroleum pro-
duction. This increase will be concentrated on the North Slope where expanded
petroleum activity will be concentrated. The other large use of natural gas,
the production of Ammonia-Urea, will continue requiring constant amounts of
natural gas.
2The Susitna Hydroelectric Project is considered in Chapter 5.

Summary
CHAPTER 5
ANALYSIS OF SURPLUS
Under reasonable assumptions about recoverable reserves and Alaska consump-
tion, the current inventories of both oil and gas are more than sufficient to
meet the presently identifiable needs of Alaskans for the next 15 years.
Liquid Petroleum
Table 5.1 shows that the cumulative 15-year Alaska demand for liquid petroleum
is approximately 612 million barrels of crude oil equivalent. This is equal
to approximately half the reserves of royalty oil and is 7 percent of total
reserves. No attempt has been made to compare petroleum products produced at
Alaska refineries with petroleum products consumed in the state. Currently
the capacity of Alaskan refineries exceeds Alaskan consumption (about 81
thousand barrels per day), but the product mix which the refineries can
produce does not match the product mix demanded (Figures 3.6 thru 3.11). The
resulting cross-hauling of crude oil out of Alaska and refined products into
the state is a common feature of petroleum markets, in general, and does not
represent an inefficient distribution of refining capacity or mismatch of
supply and demand.
It is also recognized that a direct volume for volume comparison cannot be
made between demand for refined products and availability of crude oil. A
direct comparison would be unrealistic since a barrel of crude oil does not
yield a barrel of refined products.
Natural Gas
Table 5.1 indicates that the cumulative 15-year Alaska demand for natural gas
is 3.677 trillion cubic feet of gas. This is approximately 76 percent of the
state royalty share of gas in the combined current inventory at Cook Inlet and
on the North Slope.
Since the transportation of natural gas normally requires a pipeline, partic-
ular markets for gas which are linked by pipeline to supplies are relevant for
the determination of excess supply. Table 5.1 shows that there is a net
surplus in both the Cook Inlet and North Slope markets. The Alaska royalty
share of Cook Inlet gas alone, however, is insufficient to meet the projected
Cook Inlet requirements over the next 15 years.
Projections Beyond Current Inventory
We assume recoverable reserves represent a 15-year inventory of petroleum in
the ground based upon historical reserve-to-production ratios. Because a very
sizable investment is required to develop a petroleum reservoir into recover-
able reserves, reserves will be 11 proven Up 11 at a rate to maintain sufficient
inventory consistent with the growth in demand. Excessive proven reserves,
like excessive inventories, result in unnecessary carrying costs to reservoir
-35-
owners and will be avoided if possible. This is the basis for the 15-year
time horizon for demand used in this analysis. As time passes, the growth in
demand will stimulate the search for reserves to replace those produced, and
market forces will work to keep supply and demand in balance.
Sensitivity of Results
The positive net surpluses of oil and gas calculated in this chapter are
insensitive to a reasonable range of changes in the assumptions underlying the
projections. These are discussed in turn and shown in Table 5.2.
Reserve Estimates
Because the low reserve estimates are quite similar to the mid-range esti-
mates, the positive oil and gas surpluses are not significantly affected by
using low reserve estimates.
Economic Growth
Faster population growth will accelerate the use of liquid fuels relative to
the use of natural gas because a larger portion of liquid fuel use is
population sensitive. Even so, the net surplus of petroleum liquids would be
reduced only marginally by growth of population-related consumption at double
the base case rate. Increased use of natural gas would reduce the surplus by
an equally small percentage.
Export of Gas
To the extent natural gas is exported, it is unavailable for the local
market. Cumulative exports over the next 15 years from current operations are
projected to be about 945 billion cubic feet. If a facility comparable to the
once proposed Pacific Alaska LNG project were built, it would annually export
160 billion cubic feet. With an assumed first year of operation of 1990,
cumulative exports to California through 2000 would be 1,760 billion cubic
feet. Combined exports to Japan and California would be 2,705 billion cubic
feet, reducing reserves for instate use, and the net surplus, by 6.6 percent.
In the absence of new Cook Inlet reserves, assumptions would be negative by
just 0.2 trillion cubic feet. If a new export facility were to be constructed
it is anticipated that exploration for natural gas in Cook Inlet would
accelerate (it is currently at a near stand still) and additional reserves
would be discovered once again creating a surplus condition.
Susitna Hydroelectric Project
If the Susitna hydroelectric Project were built, it could begin to replace
electricity generation by natural gas and fuel oil in 1996. If natural gas
use were cut back 75 percent beginning in that year, cumulative gas
consumption would decline 161 billion cubic feet. Fuel oil use for
electricity consumption in the Railbelt could be eliminated at a savings of 33
million gallons (about 786,000 barrels).

Natural Gas Availability in Fairbanks
If, by some means, natural gas became available in Fairbanks, electricity
~eneration space heating in Fairbanks could be converted to gas. This could
1ncrease annual natural gas consumption by 5 billion cubic feet as coal and
fuel oil were backed out. Fuel oil use would fall by 8 million gallons
annually.
Natural gas consumption for space heating would gradually replace fuel oil and
coal, and could eventually capture 75 percent of the market. If gas became
available in 1993 and captured this share of the market by 1997, gas consump-
tion for space heat could increase 25 billion cubic feet, and fuel oil
consumption could fall by 145 million gallons.
The net surplus of gas would fall very marginally as a result of these
changes, and the net surplus of liquid fuels would increase very marginally.

APPENDIX B
DEMAND PROJECTION
METhODOLOGY AND ASSUP~TIONS
Introduction
APPENDIX B
DEMAND PROJECTION
METHODOLOGY AND AssOF.PTIONS
Demand for oil and gas is best calculated by dividing total demand into use
categories. Because the factors affecting the level and growth rate of demand
by use are similar and the fact that oil and gas often compete with one
another in a market for a particular use such as for space heating or
electricity generation, demand may otherwise be distorted. The use categories
in this studY are transportation, electricity, space heat (including cooking,
water heating, and clothes drying), and industrial. A model called ENDMOD
(ENergy Demand MODel) has been constructed for calculating future energy
demands in Alaska.
The factors most important in projecting future demand will vary by use cate-
gory. In general, the most important are population (or households) and rel-
ative fuel prices. The household is the basic consuming unit for the resi-
dential sector, and is a good proxy for demand in the commercial sector. In
the industrial sector, relative fuel prices are the primary demand deter-
minate. In the residential and commercial sectors, fuel prices are more
important in determining the type of fuel used.
Transportation Use of Liquid Petroleum
Introduction
Projecting transportation fuel use requires the use of per capita consump-
tion coefficients.
Gasoline:
a. Highway use (taxable and exempt) is the largest category of gasoline con-
sumption in Alaska. Historically, demand is related to population, per-
sonal income, and the fuel efficiency of the automobile stock. In Alaska,
growth in the first two factors will tend to offset the effect of in-
creased fuel efficiency in future years resulting in aggregate growth in
use of this fuel. Nationally, per capita consumption of gasoline has
fallen in recent years. We assume a continuation of this per capita trend
for Alaska. In Alaska, per capita consumption of highway gas peaked in
1975 at 502 gallons per capita and declined to 383 gallons per capita in
1983. The estimated consumption for 1984 is 418 gallons per person.
Demand is projected using a per capita, coefficient which declines one
percent annually from the previous year. The initial value of 411 gallons
per capita is the mean of per capita consumption of 1981 through 1984.
b. Aviation gasoline (taxable and exempt) use has, in the past decade, been
roughly 10 percent as large as highway gasoline use. Between 1971 and
1982, consumption of aviation gas per capita varied between 35 and 43
gallons. In 1982, consumption fell to 36 gallons from the peak of 43
gallons in 1981 and to 30 gallons per capita in 1983. Consumption
-B.l-
increased in 1984 to an estimated 33 gallons per capita. The initial value
for aviation gas consumption is the 4-year mean of 35 gallons per capita.
c. Marine gasoline (taxable and exempt) use has, in the past decade, been
roughly 50 percent of the aviation gasoline consumption level with an
apparently slightly slower growth rate. We assume a strong income elas-
ticity of demand will result in maintenance of the current per-capita-use
coefficient in future years. Consumption in 1983 was 17 gallons per
capita. The initial value used to project consumption is the 4-year mean
of 17.5 gallons per capita.
Jet Fuel:
Jet fuel consumption consists of domestic commercial operations, international
commercial operations, and military operations. Domestic commercial opera-
tions are a function of the Alaskan population and economY, and as such, have
grown rapidly in per capita terms historically (taxable). International com-
mercial operations are a function of world economic and political conditions,
as well as aviation technology. Military operations are broadly a function,
albeit a different one, of the same factors. These two latter categories
cannot be separately identified in the historical data, but their combined
total has shown relatively modest, although cyclical, growth since the early
1970s. The sharp decrease in reported exempt aviation fuel consumption (and a
corresponding increase in taxable jet fuel consumption) in 1982 is probably a
reporting error.
We project domestic commercial consumption separately from international com-
mercial and military use. We assume that the taxable jet fuel category is
primarily domestic commercial consumption, and that the exempt jet fuel
category includes international commercial and military consumption. The
coefficient relating consumption to population for domestic commercial
aviation has increased from 153 gallons per capita in 1971 to 350 in 1981 and
575 in 1984. (This excludes the reporting error of 1982.) The initial value
for projecting the civilian domestic jet fuel is 525 gallons per capita.
We assume future growth will exceed population but at a slower rate than it
has historically because of increased efficiency of the capital stock. The
coefficient grows by 3 percent annually.
International commercial and military consumption of jet fuel is the only
category of fuel consumption not projected on a per capita basis. While
variation in international commercial and military consumption is difficult to
project, growth during the preceding decade approximated 1 percent per annum.
We use this figure to project future growth with 1984 consumption of 260
million gallons as the initial value.
-B.2-
Diesel:
The categories used to report diesel fuel sales in Department of Revenue tax
records have changed at least twice since 1979, making use of this source of
data for projecting highway diesel consumption (or any type of consumption)
difficult.
Future growth in consumption is projected at the per capita use rate of 565
gallons. While the most recent reporting system provides a breakout of
nontransportation sales in the "exempt other diesel" category, the estimates
of highway diesel for earlier years require the assumption that the magnitude
of nontransportation diesel sales is small in the "exempt highway" and later
"exempt other" categories. Additionally, we assume that the old 11 0ff-highway
category" is primarily nontransportation use.
The per capita consumption of highway diesel fuel has grown steadily since
1978, when it reached a post-pipeline construction low. Future growth in con-
sumption is projected, based upon the 3-year mean for 1982-1984.
Marine diesel use has increased very rapidly since 1981. The source of this
growth is impossible to determine from the data. We assume a constant per
capita level of consumption of 250 gallons in future years.
Regional Allocation
Regional allocation of transportation fuels is made using the 1983 allocations
of historical consumption as adjusted by projected shifts in regional popula-
tion.
Electric Utility Use of Liquid Fuels and Natural Gas
Introduction
Electric utility use of oil and gas is a derived demand based upon the demand
for electricity and the methods used to generate it. We project this use of
liquid fuels and natural gas by first estimating electricity demand for space
heating and nonspace heating uses, then determining· the proportion generated
by fuel oil and natural gas, and, finally, determining demand based upon the
efficiency of generation (heat rate). Since the electricity generation alter-
natives vary by region in Alaska, we project fuel use by three major regions
of the state: Railbelt, Southeast, and the rest of the state.
Rail belt
a. Consumption of Electricity
The total electricity demand is split into the demand for residential space
heat and for all other uses. The space heating consumption rates are based
upon the weighted average of electricity consumption for space heat by housing
type as reported in the 1983 version of the Railbelt Electricity Demand (RED)
model (Battelle Northwest Laboratories, June 1983). Consumption per household
grows over the projection period due to increased electricity consumption for
space heat in the new additions to the housing stock.
-B.3-
. . I
The number of households using electric space heat depends upon the total
number of households and the proportion of housing units which use electric
space heat. Two factors are likely to influence the current proportion of
households using electric space heat: (1) the extension of the gas utility
into the Matanuska Valley and (2) the completion of the electric intertie
between Anchorage and Fairbanks. The former will result in a portion of
existing structures converting to natural gas from electricity for space
heating. This will slow the growth rate of electricity use but increase the
use of utility gas. The second factor may alter the relative price of elec-
tricity in both Anchorage and Fairbanks relative to natural gas and fuel oil,
thus causing some households, especially in Fairbanks, to switch from fuel oil
to electric space heat.
We assume the gas utility will continue to extend its market into the
Matanuska Valley and aggressively market gas for space heating. Market
penetration began in 1984, and during the next ten years, the electric space
heating market in the Matanuska Valley will fall to half its current share.
We assume the completion of the Anchorage-Fairbanks intertie does not signifi-
cantly alter the price of electricity for consumers in either location. In
particular, no shift towards electric space heating in Fairbanks is assumed as
a result of the tie-in to the inexpensive gas-fired electricity from Anchorage.
The per-household demand for electricity net of residential space heating uses
is based upon historical consumption for 1980-1983 and the projected growth in
consumption as reported by Battelle in the RED model documentation. This
includes both residential and commercial consumption.
b. Mode Split
Except as noted below, future additions to capacity within the projection
period are all gas-fired turbines. Incremental generation in Anchorage is
entirely natural gas. Incremental generation in Fairbanks will depend upon
the cheaper of the cost of purchased electricity from Anchorage generated by
natural gas and the marginal cost of locally produced electricity generated by
fuel oil. We assume electricity moves in both directions in the line at dif-
ferent times. Fairbanks excess capacity provides reserves to Anchorage, and
cheap Anchorage generation provides off-peak electricity to Fairbanks. Incre-
mental generation in Fairbanks comes from Anchorage-produced electricity. The
following assumptions specifically determine mode split:
-B.4-
1. Coal-fired generation in Fairbanks remains constant at 354 thousand
Megawatt hours annually.
2. Existing (Eklutna and Cooper Lake} hydroelectric facilities continue
to provide railbelt power.
3. Fuel oil generation in Fairbanks declines 50 percent as a result of
the intertie.
4. Solomon Gulch provides a firm annual average production of 54.6
thousand Megawatt hours annually.
5. Bradley Lake comes on line in 1993 and produces 330 thousand Megawatt
hours annually. This backs out 4.4 billion cubic feet of natural gas
annually.
Heat rates are projected to remain at current levels.
Southeast
a. Consumption
The growth rate in consumption per capita in Southeast is assumed to be the
same rate as in the railbelt. These growth rates are applied to 1983 per
capita consumption of 8,000 kwh per capita. The advent of less expensive
electricity provided by hydroelectric power may cause electric space heating
demand to grow and accelerate that growth rate. We assume this effect is
insignificant.
b. Mode Split
As recently completed hydroelectric projects are brought on line, they will
back out the use of fuel oil in electricity generation in those locations
linked to the hydro power. The consumption of electricity in these communi-
ties is estimated using the proportion of Southeast Alaska electricity con-
sumption used by these communities in 1983.
Rest-of-State
Growth in per capita electricity demand in the rest of the state is assumed to
occur at twice the rate projected for the railbelt. These growth rates are
applied to 1983 per capita consumption rates of 3,900 kwh per capita.
With the exception of Barrow, this region currently relies on fuel oil for
electricity generation. This dependence is projected to continue into the
future with the exception of Kodiak, which now receives hydropower from the
Terror Lake project.
~B.S-
Space Heating Use of Liquid Fuels and Natural Gasl
Introduction
In the Anchorage area, natural gas is the most economical fuel for space
heating. Elsewhere, fuel oil is the least expensive alternative except where
electricity generated by natural gas is available. In projecting future
demands, we use different procedures for gas and fuel oil because of
differences in data availability. Natural gas use is based upon a projection
of the current level of consumption. Fuel oil demand is estimated based upon
the proportion of the population assumed to heat with fuel oil, and estimates
of mean household fuel oil consumption. This approach is necessitated because
there is no reliable direct estimate of current fuel oil consumption for space
heating.
Rail belt
Natural gas for space heating (and a small amount of related uses for gas
purchased from utilities) is projected to grow as a function of population.
Growth historically has occurred at a rate in excess of population due to gas
retrofitting and expansion of the commercial sector. This trend will moderate
in the future, and growth is projected to exceed population by two percent
annually.
In addition, a new gas market has opened in the ~~tanuska Valley. We estimate
that by 1995, one-half of the building stock in the Matanuska Valley will
utilize natural gas for space heating. The proportion of railbelt population
heating with gas is 47 percent. This factor forms the basis for estimating the
growth of space heating demand for natural gas in the Matanuska Valley. The
resulting demand level is estimated on a per household basis for residential
consumption and a per capita basis for commercial consumption. Residential
natural gas consumption is approximately 200 thousand cubic feet per
household. Per capita commercial consumption is 55 thousand cubic feet.
Fuel oil use for space heating is generally preferred only where gas or
gas-fired electricity is not available. Growth in its use will depend upon
the location of new structures in the railbelt. We assume that the proportion
of households using fuel oil for space heat declines slightly from the current
share of 24 percent to 22.4 percent in 1999. Per household residential and
per capita commercial fuel oil consumption are based on gas consumption
figures converted to fuel oil on the basis of BTU equivalency.
Nonrailbelt
Outside the railbelt, space heating is almost entirely provided by fuel oil,
with the exception of Barrow. Fuel oil consumption is calculated using the
share of households with fuel oil space heat and the same per capita
llncludes water heating, cooking, and other minor uses.
-B.6-
coeffiecient of fuel oil use for space heating as applied to the railbelt
population. This estimate is consistent with surveys and small regional
studies of fuel oil use in rural Alaska. This estimate entails compensating
errors. On the one hand, the heating degree days are greater in most parts of
the state which rely on fuel oil relative to Anchorage. On the other hand,
the stock of structures is smaller outside Anchorage.
For natural gas consumption in Barrow, a growth rate which exceeds population
growth by 2 percent is applied to a base of current consumption.
Industrial Use of Liquid Fuels and Natural Gas
Industrial consumption is not a function of population, but rather of the
availability of supplies and market opportunities. Since the major industrial
users of petroleum fuels are small in number, they are best projected on a
case-by-case basis.
Ammonia-Urea Production
Ammonia-Urea production using natural gas is assumed to continue at a constant
level.
Petroleum Production-Related Use
a. Gas Use in Production
Natural gas is utilized in petroleum production in Cook Inlet and on the North
Slope for a variety of purposes, including space heatin9, electricity genera-
tion, pump fuel, etc. The level of consumption is diff1cult to project
because of its many uses, but it is primarily dependent upon petroleum
production levels and petroleum employment levels. We assume the level
remains constant in Cook Inlet. On the North Slope it grows 7 percent
annually for seven years, and is constant thereafter.
b. Oil Use in Production
A small quantity of fuel oil is used in oil production. This is included in
the miscellaneous industrial category.
c. Gas Use in Transportation
Included in gas use in production.
d. Oil Use in Transportation
Fuel oil fuels the pumps for most of the Alyeska pipeline. Annual consumption
is estimated to be two million barrels of oil. This level is projected to
remain constant.
-B.7-
Oil--Miscellaneous
Some fuel oil is used in electricity generation for industrial self-supplied
power. This amount, taken from Alaska Power Administration, is projected to
remain constant.
Military
The military uses natural gas for electricity generation and space heating in
the Anchorage area and fuel oil elsewhere. Military transportation use of
fuel oil is counted in the transportation sector. Military natural gas use is
projected to remain constant. Lack of data prevents the calculation of
military fuel oil consumption for space heating.
Injection
Gas is injected into petroleum reservoirs to enhance oil recovery. Because
this is only a temporary use of gas, it is not counted a part of final con-
sumption.
LNG
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG} is defined as export of gas for the purposes of
this report.
ECONC*1IC GROWTH ASSUMPTIONS
Economic projections for estimating future petroleum demands are complicated
this year because of the unsettled nature of the world oil market and the
recent, rapid growth of the Alaska economy. The former makes it difficult to
project activity in the petroleum industry, the most important basic sector
industry in the economy, and activity generated by state government spending,
which is primarily a function of the availability of petroleum revenues. The
latter makes the task of relating recent growth to longer-term trends dif-
ficult.
The economic growth during the last 4 years, fueled by the dramatic growth in
state spending resulting from the increase in oil prices, has generated an
increase in population from 420,000 in 1980 (July 1, 1980) to an estimated
527,000 in 1984. This increase in population exceeds the magnitude of the
growth which occurred between 1974 and 1976 during the peak construction years
for the oil pipeline (approximately 67,000) and was unanticipated by all
forecasts. The annual growth rate of 5.8 percent since 1980 is double the
average annual growth rate of 2.9 percent in population between 1960 and
1980. The fact that this population change has been much more rapid than the
increase in employment opportunities demonstrates the difficulty in accurately
projecting longer-range population trends for Alaska, particularly within the
context of a temporary boom generated by state spending.
The base case economic projection used in this analysis contains a population
growth rate of 1.4 percent annually and an employment growth rate of 1.3
percent. These growth rates are less than those observed over the first two
decades of statehood, but are considerably above projections of growth of the
-B.8-
·.·,

···1
national economy. For example, the U.S. Department of Commerce has recently
projected population growth for the nation to the year TOOO at .8 percentage
annually and employment growth at 1.2 percent annually. State population
grows from 527,000 in 1984 to 652,000 in 1999. Nonagricultural ~age and
salary employment grows from 222,000 in 1984 to 285,000 in 1999.
This growth is consistent with many possible sets of assumptions about future
basic sector activity and public sector spending as well as support sector and
demographic responses. Future basic sector economic activity underlying this
projection is similar to that u~ed in the Revised Reference Case scenario used
in the Susitna Studies Program.
The regional distribution of economic activity, employment, and population
continues the historical trend of shifting gradually toward the railbelt as
the economic center of the state.

DEFINITIONS OF STATUTORY TEJ<rt1S
APPENDIX E
DEFINITIONS OF STATUTORY TERMS
AS 38.05.183 states that oil and gas taken in kind as the state's royalty
share of production may not be sold or otherwise disposed of for export from
the state until the Commissioner of Natural Resources determines that the
royalty-in-kind oil or gas is surplus to the present and projected intrastate
domestic and industrial needs for oil and gas.
The statute contains several key terms whose meaning must be resolved before
an estimate can be made of oil and gas surplus to the state's needs. These
key terms are: 1) "oil and gas, 11 2) "export, 11 3) 11 present, 11
4) :•projected, 11 5) "domestic, 11 6) 11 industrial, 11 7) "intrastate, •• and
8) 'how these needs are to be met. •• Each key term affects the size of the
estimated demand for oil and gas in Alaska and consequently, the size of the
projected surplus or deficit. The meaning of each term is discussed below.
Oil and .Gas
Crude oil and natural gas are fluids containing hydrocarbon compounds produced
from naturally occurring petroleum deposits. Typical crude oil contains
several hundred chemical compounds. The lightest of these are gases at normal
temperatures and pressure, described as "natural gas." These light fractions
of the crude oil stream include both hydrocarbon and non-hydrocarbon gases,
such as water, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, helium, or nitrogen. The
principal hydrocarbons are methane {CH4), ethane (C2H6), propane (C3H8),
butanes (C4Hl0), and pentanes (C5Hl2). The gaseous component found most often
and in largest volumes is, typically, methane. Heavier fractions of the crude
stream are usually liquids. If a given hydrocarbon fraction is gaseous at
reservoir temperatures and pressures, but is recoverable by condensation
(cooling and pressure reduction), absorption, or other means, it is Tlassified
by the American Gas Association (AGA) as a natural gas liquid (NGL).
Natural gas liquids include ethane if ethane is recovered from the gas stream
as a liquid. A related term is liquefied petroleum gas {LPG), composed of
hydrocarbons which liquefy under moderate pressure under normal temperatures.
LPG usually refers to propane and butane. A second related term is
condensate, which refers to LPG plus heavier NGL component (natural
gasoline). The lightest hydrocarbon fraction is methane, which is almost
never recovered as a liquid, and which makes up the bulk of pipeline gas. If
a natural gas stream contains few hydrocarbons which are commercially
recoverable as liquids, ;t is considered "dry gas 11 or "lean gas.11 The
distinction between 11 Wet" and "dry" is usually a legal one, which vades from
state to state. 11 Crude oil" usually means the non-gaseous portion of the
crude oil stream.
Natural gas may occur in reservoirs which are predominately gas-bearing or in
reservoirs in which the gas is in contact with petroleum liquids.
Non-associated gas is natural gas from a reservoir where the gas is neither in
contact with nor dissolved in crude oil. Associated gas occurs in contact
loefinitions vary with processes.
-E.l-
·-...
with crude oil, but is not dissolved in it. A gas cap on a crude oil
reservoir is a typical example of associated gas. Dissolved gas is dissolved
in petroleum liquids and is produced along with them. Dissolved and
associated gases are usually good sources of NGL while non-associated gases
are often 11 dry. 11
The distinction between natural gas and its NGL components is important to a
study of the supply and demand of royalty oil and gas because natural gas
liquids have a multitude of uses when separated from the gas stream. For
example, propane is both produced in Alaska and sold in Alaska as bottled gas
for residential, commercial, and limited transportation uses, while butane is
used for blending in gasoline and military jet fuel and as a refinery fuel.
In addition, Marathon Oil uses LPG to enrich crude oil at its Trading Bay
facilit2. It ships the combined fluids to the Drift River terminal for
export. Potential uses for NGL also include the enriching (11 spiking 11
) of
pipeline gas and crop drying. Several years ago the Dow-Shell Petrochemical
Group and Exxon studied the feasibility of utilizing the NGL contained in
Prudhoe Bay natural gas as the basis for an Alaska petrochemicals industry.
Since the State has the option of considering NGL separately from the gas
stream, two definitions of natural gas consumption and reserves are possible.
One of these would consider natural gas liquids as part of the gas stream.
The second definition would treat the markets for LPG and ethane separately
from those for gas. This requires a separate estimate of LPG consumption and
gas liquids reserves. In this report, demand for LPG and ethane is estimated
separately from that for gas; however, no separate estimate is made of gas
liquids reserves.
Export
Taken in context, this term appears to mean the direct physical sending of oil
and gas out of the state. However, when one considers the fact that much of
Alaska 1 s industrial use of oil and gas is processed directly for export
markets, the meaning of export versus 11 intrastate 11 is not so obvious. For
example, it appears that processing of gas into another product, e.g.,
anhydrous ammonia, would probably be an 11 industrial 11 use rather than .. export"
of gas, even though the ammonia is mostly exported. Liquefication to change
the phase of the gas is a less obvious case. The liquefication of natural gas
is considered a transportation process in this report. Still more troublesome
is the use of gas and oil for transportation related to export. Is the gas
and oil consumed in TAPS pipeline pump stations, for example, an 11 industrial 11
use in state? Or is it really 11 export 11 of that energy, since it is consumed
in the exporting process? There is no reason why the State may not be
approached in the future to commit royalty oil and gas to quasi-export uses.
Indeed, a top dollar offer was made by the ALPETCO (later, Alaska Oil Company)
for royalty oil ultimately destined (as petrochemical products) for
out-of-state markets. Though the offer was made, payments in full were not
made. Also, the state once committed royalty gas to the El Paso gas pipeline
proposal for export of Prudhoe Bay gas, which involved liquefication. Neither

Butane. Prepared for the Alaska Department of Natural Resources. Kramer
Associates, Juneau, October 1981.
-E.2-
proposal was clearly for in-state industrial use. In this report, industrial
demand is treated with multiple definitions as outlined later in the chapter
to show how different definitions of 11 export 11 affect the estimate of total
consumption in Alaska.
Present
The problem here is that the term ''present" may mean "latest year"
consumption, "average recent year'' consumption, "weather-adjusted"
consumption, or "worst case" consumption. In the residential and co11111ercial
sector particularly, each definition gives a somewhat different answer because
of the variability of weather.
The "worst case" consumption calculation can result in considerably higher gas
consumption than the most recent year, if the most recent year happens to have
been a relatively warm one. While it is not correct forecasting procedure to
make long run forecasts of intrastate residential consumption of natural gas
which assume worst case forecasts for every year, it may be prudent in
practice to reserve part of the the State's gas and oil supply for bad
weather. For forecasting, variability of weather makes the picking of a
starting value for consumption somewhat tricky. In this report, Rail Belt
consumption is based on average weather years. For the remainder of the
state, trended per capita consumption is used, which approximates average
weather conditions.
Projected
This is a very difficult concept, since many different projections of
consumption would be possible even if it were possible to agree on a single
concept defining consumption. Rates of economic development, population
growth, and relative energy prices are key features of any consumption
forecast, but assumptions concerning any of these variables are necessarily
controversial. This report describes a range of possible consumption figures
under precisely articulated definitions of consumption and varying paces of
economic, population, and fuel price growth. The economic and population
forecasts used in this report were done by the Uni~ersity of Alaska Institute
of Social and Economic Research in December, 1984. The assumptions used to
run their economic model are shown in Appendix B.
Domestic
Domestic consumption appears to mean Alaska residential consumption. As we
saw above under the subheading "present", it is not at all obvious which
definition of domestic consumption is the most appropriate, even when the
identity of the customer is not in dispute. Some multifamily residential use
may be described as 11 commercial", obscuring the definition of the customer and
causing forecasting problems for natural gas. The definition of "domestic"
considered in this report includes multifamily residential in "residential 11 or
"domestic" use.
Industrial
As described above, ••industrial" energy use has a number of potential
definitions. Since one intent of giving in-state industrial needs priority
-E.
. ·-~
over export uses of royalty oil and gas seems to be encourage in-state
economic activity, 3 a day-to-day working definition of this industrial
priority is that the royalty reserves be committed to the market which has the
largest potential economic impact in Alaska. For forecasting purposes,
however, it is difficult to say which markets will prove to be of the most
economic benefit to the state. As a compromise, we will adopt four
alternative definitions of 11 industrial 11 in this study.
The four alternative definitions of industrial use of oil and gas used in this
report are outlined below, beginning with the most restrictive and moving to
the most liberal.
Definition 1: Industrial use consists of any consumption of natural gas,
petroleum, or their products in combustion (except that required to export
oil or gas); or the chemical transformation of natural gas, petroleum, or
their products into refined products for local markets. This definition
explicitly excludes the exported products from refineries, as well as uses
which merely change the physical form of the product (gas conditioning or
liquefaction) for export, or which move the product to an export market
(pipeline fuel, fuel used on lease, shrinkage, injection, vented and
flared gas).
Definition 2: Industrial use consists of ;any consumption of natural gas,
petroleum, or their products in combustion (except in oil and gas
production and transportation); or the chemical transformation of natural
gas, petroleum, or their products into refined products. This definition
counts feedstocks for petrochemical plants and refineries as industrial
consumption. It also counts energy consumed by an LNG facility as
industrial consumption. It excludes the feedstocks of LNG plants ;and
fuel consumption by conditioning plants, pump stations, fuel used on
lease, shrinkage, injection and flared gas.
Definition 3: Industrial use consists of any consumption of natural gas,
crude oil, or their products in combustion (except in oil and gas
transport and extraction) or their chemical transformation into refined
products. This definition permits the feedstocks of refineries to be
counted as industrial consumption. It excludes fuels used in pump
stations, in conditioning plants, fuel used on lease, and gas shrinkage,
injection, or venting.
Definition 4: Industrial use consists of any use of natural gas, crude
oil, or their products in combustion, or their transformation into
chemically different products. This definition permits feedstocks of
refineries to be counted as industrial consumption, as well as energy
consumption in conditioning plants and pump stations. It excludes
injected gas, which is ultimately recoverable for other uses, and LNG
processing, which is considered an export. Definition 4 will be used for
the purposes of this report.
3However, see the short discussion of legislative intent beginning on page 9
of Kramer, Williams and Erickson, op. cit. That study raises many of the
issues regarding surplus gas and oil discussed in this report.
-E.4-
None of the four definitions treats industrial use (including transportation)
to include gas injected to enhance oil recovery, since in theory this gas
remains part of the ultimately recoverable gas reserves of the state. Thus,
it is not 11 Consumed."
Intrastate
It is unclear what is meant by intrastate consumption. Some uses, such as
combustion of oil and gas products in fixed capital facilities in Alaska, are
reasonably easy to categorize as intrastate. There are several uses in
transportation which are not obviously within Alaska. These categories
include the fuel burned in marine vessels such as cargo vessels, ferries, and
fishing boats, and fuel burned in international interstate air travel. There
are multiple ways to approach the definition of this consumption. The first
is a sales definition: the fuel used in transportation which is sold in
Alaska. The second approach is to base consumption on fuel used ln!Alaska or
related to Alaska•s economy and population, regardless of the point of sale.
This results in three logical definitions, described below:
Definition 1: Intrastate consumption in transportation includes all sales
of fuels to motor vehicles, airplanes, and vessels in Alaska, including
bonded fuels. It excludes fuel consumed by motor vessels which was
purchased in other states, and fuel consumed by airlines between Alaska
locations unless the fuel was sold in Alaska. It also excludes out of
state military fuel purchases.
Definition 2: Intrastate consumption includes fuel consumed by motor
vessels, airlines, and vehicles engaged in Alaskan economic activity. It
includes use of fuel by American fishing boats in Alaskan waters
regardless of where the fuel was purchased, use of fuel purchased in
Washington State by Alaska State ferries, and fuel consumed by ships and
aircraft involved in Alaska trade. It excludes sales to aircraft on
international flights (bonded and unbonded), but includes military out of
state purchases.
Definition 3: The final definition is a compromise between the first
two. It includes all fuel purchased within the state, plus military uses,
but excludes fuel purchased out of state except for military uses.
The basic definition in this report is the third definition. By excluding
bonded and exempt jet fuel, the report also approximates Definition 2. Lack
of data on out-state purchases by the military makes Definition 1 impractical.
How These Needs Are To Be Met
Any analysis of how the oil and gas needs of the intrastate domestic and
industrial sector are to be met could include several sources of supply:
state royalty oil and gas, in-state oil and gas reserves under other
ownership, probable extensions of proven reserves, and imports of crude oil,
petroleum products, and {in theory) natural gas.
