An article on February 1 in the Financial Times reports that in 2006, Wood Mackenzie, the energy consultancy, predicted North America would be the world's biggest importer of liquefied natural gas (LNG) by 2010. Now the industry would do well to convert the natural gas import terminals into export terminals to deal with shale gas production.
