Bottom Line: Gas conversions are up as are gas connections overall. Until some of the LNG export plans come on line, local demand will drive producer revenues.
Bottom Line: Local demand for hydrocarbons and coal remain important especially for gas. MinMinas continues with the theme of child labor in traditional mining.
