  4. This one is a no brainer! • Do you burn natural gas at your business? • Do you currently purchase natural gas from a public utility company such as New Mexico Gas Company? • Do you want to save money with your energy purchases? (10-30%) • If you answered YES you will be able to save your business money with a retail natural gas contract.

  5. New Mexico Deregulation • New Mexico has deregulated the purchase of natural gas to non-residential customers. • You can take advantage of this opportunity with very little effort. • Public Utility Companies can only profit from the transportation of NG. • Exclusions: Las Cruces & Raton.

  6. Where does NG come from? • New Mexico has the third richest natural gas reserves in the United States. • The two main natural gas-producing areas in our state are the Permian Basin (SE NM) and the San Juan Basin (NW NM). • Albuquerque and Northern NM get NG from the San Juan Basin. • In fact, the San Juan Basin is the largest natural gas reserve in the entire country. Most of the natural gas New Mexico Gas Company purchases for their customers comes from the Permian and San Juan Basins. • Most of New Mexico’s Natural Gas is transported west to California.

  7. What affects NG Prices? • All NG burned in NM is domestic. • Demand. • Cold Winter Weather. • Storage. Injecting versus dejecting. • Hurricanes. • Can affect supply. • Heating Oil Prices. • Can affect supply of NG.

  8. What Do You Need to do to Start Saving? • List of your NG Accounts. • Determine usage by month for three years. • More years are better. • Spreadsheet analysis of average usage by month. • Determine how much NG you will be purchasing each month from a retailer.

  9. Strategies To Purchase NG • Purchase Percentage of Monthly Gas at the Monthly San Juan Index Price. • 75 – 80%. • Lower than monthly NM Gas Co price. • This is not an energy conservation practice. • Watch the daily market pricing and lock-in a price for winter months. • Depending on your volumes, more sophisticated purchasing strategies are available.
