Abstract
-
High-quality and low-cost domestic Natural Gas Liquids (NGLs) are fuelling a renaissance in US manufacturing.
-
Appalachia is positioned to be the natural gas capital of America, and the center of advanced plastics production in the world.
-
American exports of shale energy are surging, providing new opportunities for US firms and the economy.
-

-

-
