The SPE BD Study group is putting together a panel of industry representatives to discuss how the rapidly changing price environment of both gas and liquid production has spurred quick jettisoning of $4 / $100 strategies, sending upstream MLP’s into intense corrective/creative mode. 

Discussions will center around the A&D market specific to MLP appropriate assets, hedging strategies and emerging MLP trends.

Topics include the following:

• Increasingly accurate production forecasts that are now, more than ever, key to syncing asset valuations with the MLP yield/distribution model.
• Appropriate hedging strategies
• What happens when some of the drilling results are less than predicted (ie: MLPs taking on too much drilling risk)?
• How is the MLP approach to asset development changing?
• How will the new price environment affect hedging access and duration?
• Will the lower commodity environment spark MLP consolidations, or aggregation into smaller MLPs?

The popular format of a Business & Social Networking hour, with complimentary Hors’ D’ Oeuvres and a cash bar, followed by an hour and a half long program including a Q&A session, will begin at 5:00 pm in the Mezzanine of the Four Seasons hotel in Downtown Houston.

Host: Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Banking
