4. Is The Shale Boom Different Than
Recent Energy Booms?
» Other recent energy “boom” events with major supply chain challenges….
» Common characteristics
New technology breakthroughs and/or dramatic market shifts
Speed to market is paramount -- supply chain strategies an afterthought
Rush of capital and new players
Continuous change and evolution required to improve efficiency
Previous two energy booms did not improve the cost of energy without
government incentives

8. Shale Oil or Gas -- Which is more important
to US industry competitiveness?
Energy Cost per Million BTU
» Natural Gas is 4X cheaper than oil on a
BTU-basis
Not expected to change for the foreseeable future
Gas is more plentiful on most shale plays
» Gas drives an increasing share of the US
electricity generation capacity
» Gas by products are the “building blocks
of manufacturing”
» Gas’ cost advantages will drive new Source: EIA

Produces higher quality steel vs. scrap steel
DRI pellets cost ~$270/ton vs. scrap steel cost ~$390/ton
At least five new DRI steel plants being considered in the U.S. by:
– Nucor/Encana, Bluescope Steel/Cargill, Essar Global Ltd.
Nucor signed a 20 year supply agreement with Encana Gas & Oil
» Reciprocal Growth and Other Industry Impacts
Shale gas creates demand for OCTG steel pipe for wells
Increased demand for U.S. steel creates greater demand for U.S.

Other energy-intensive industries will have great advantages and
are anticipating further expansions in the US

12. Gas Feedstock
Cost Competitiveness
Relative Profit Margins for Producing Ethylene from
» Gas feedstock (ethane) makes ethylene Ethane and Naphtha
very competitive
Ethylene is feedstock for a broad range of chemical
products – a “building block” of manufacturing
>70 cents per pound more profit per pound from ethane
production compared to naphtha
Ethane-to-Naphtha cracker ratio
– Was 70%/30%
– Likely to reach 95%/5%
» Production capacity for ethylene set to
expand in U.S. -- abundant supply
Investment in ethylene production has already increased by
33% domestically
Production capacity expected to rise by up to 35% in
coming years
Investments in the repair and expansion of existing
crackers also increasing
Ethane exports will grow fueling more demand for gas

» Direct & Indirect Materials make up 60-70% of typical manufactured component
US has & will have substantive raw material cost advantages over much of the world
Winners will take advantage of constantly changing raw material markets with Value Engineering
Global sourcing capability still will remain a requirement
» Overseas shipping can account for 10% of the component cost – built in advantage for US

17. Key Questions for US manufacturers
1. Will we take advantage of the raw material & energy
cost advantages driven by shale gas?
2. Will we leverage the logistical cost and cash flow
advantages of local manufacturing?
3. Will we relentlessly lower our labor and overhead costs?
PLG model assumes that US manufacturers can cut their labor and
overhead by 50% between 2008 & 2015
Must minimize all Supply Chain costs & cycle times from supplier to
customer
Lean and Six Sigma can’t be just buzzwords – must live it!
4. Will we lead our teams to do things differently than in the
past?

18. Implications & Wrap Up
» Shale gas is a game-changer for US manufacturing
» US manufacturing must continuously reduce
their labor and overhead costs
» Competition will intensify, change, grow….
The Chinese will not easily give up on manufacturing US products
New entrants in US will use new materials and technology in many industries
“Innovate or perish”
» Shale Oil & Gas has additive benefits to the US economy
Energy independence – 2020 or 2025?
Driving large increase in exports – LNG, propane, petrochemicals, chemicals, plastics
Major improvement on trade deficit
Shale Oil & Gas supply chain will drive job growth
