  1. Mini-to-Medium Scale LNG – A Profitable & EnvironmentallySustainable Solution for Flared or Stranded Gas Matt BARCLAY Director, Energy Resources Group

  2. Presentation overviewThe Agenda • Introduction to Prometheus Energy • Small-Scale LNG Production from Flare Gas or Non-Conventional Sources • Applicable Purification & Liquefaction Requirements • Why Small-to-Medium Scale Projects Work & What’s Driving the Market • Niche LNG Market Opportunities & Future Demand Sources • Summary & Conclusions

  3. Prometheus Energy CompanyCompany Background • Vertically Integrated LNG Production and Supply Company • Design, Own, Operate LNG Project Development Capabilities • LNG Supply to Vehicle, Industrial and Utility Customers • Non-Traditional LNG Supply Sources • Landfills, Coalmines, Associated Gas Wells & Digesters • Corporate Offices in Seattle & London • Publicly Listed on London Stock Exchange (PEC.L)

  4. What is small-to-medium scale LNG?An Overview of the Existing Market • Numerous Small/Medium Scale LNG plants in operation around the world • Plants sized for 2.5-100M scf/d • Produce between 1/50th and 1/500th the capacity of global-scale liquefaction facilities • Niche Market Supply Focus • Utility Peakshaving • Over 100 production/storage sites in US • Other LNG Production Sources • NRU’s and/or Liquid Helium Plants • Non-Conventional LNG Plants (Prometheus)

  14. LNG & Related Green House Gas ReductionsThe Use of LNG Can Lead to Lower Greenhouse Gas Emissions • While natural gas vehicles do emit minor amounts of methane, this slight amount of unburned methane is more than offset by a substantial reduction in carbon dioxide emissions compared to other fuels When compared to diesel, natural gas transit buses are shown to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by as much as 37%. Emissions of CO2 & CO2 Equivalent from Model Year 2004 Transit Buses (grams/mile traveled) 3295 3500 3000 2500 2089 1913 2000 1500 1000 + = 500 176 0 CO2 Emissions CO2 Equivalent of Unburned Methane Emissions CO2 Emissions from 2004 Diesel Transit Bus Net CO2 Equivalent Emissions from 2004 Natural Gas Transit Bus Source: 2005 NREL Technical Report 540-36355

Bowerman Landfill Gas-to-LNG Project

  16. Presentation Conclusion And Key FindingsWhere Does the Market Go from Here? • Continued strong world-wide growth of LNG supply & demand • Market growth driven by economic & environmental factors • Growing use of LNG in the transportation fuel market • New, much larger NGV markets for 400+ HP NG engines • New global role for LNG produced from stranded or waste gas • Look for over 100 small/medium LNG projects to develop in next 10 years and for non-traditional sources of supply to play a significant role
