Your art's pretty damn decent, but there's a couple of things you could do that'd polish your work off much better. Do bear in mind this is the first time I've seen any of your work!
First thing - clean up the preloader, you look like an ad whore for whatever OgZone is. See if you can maybe restrict it to a small bar.
Secondly, the intro needn't be so long. If it's because you like the song and you want people to hear all of it, you have to either find it within yourself to shorten it to less than say twenty seconds, or really pack in some movement (maybe a sliding panorama/strip of characters you want to show) and have your credits or sponsors whatever appearing while it's going on. The characters' names or a small bio or whatever might be worth considering, but that might not work for you. If not, no biggie.
Also - see if you can have the video take up all of the space available - the redundant black bits make it seem a little claustrophobic.
A little more movement, especially in the later scenes would be good, also a little trick I've seen done well is if you have two consecutive pics of one character, say changing stance or facial expressions from the same angle, is just fade the first out to reveal the second. It kinda gives an illusion of animation. Depends on the scene, your call :)
Do something cool with the text, it's too static right now. A gentle slide/fade in, slide/fade out would be good, and you could play around with the effects for when a character is shouting or whispering etc.
I like most of the backgrounds, but in the scene with the two girls at the end it's too obvious that you've pasted over one static texture. If you put as much love into the backgrounds as you do with your characters, and perhaps don't let faces take up too much of the pic, it will look so much better :D
Yeah, kill the copy/paste textures.
Last point, the dialogue - most of it is fine, but the odd line is weird grammarwise. Get a mate to check it over for you first - get it really clean and proper and you'll look like a total pro compared to the rest of newgrounds.
That's all I have to say, apart from the music is spot on! Keep it up man :)
Hey thanjs for your review. There is very interesting point ^^ But the problem for the actual episodes are "old" episode of the French version, poorly translated until the episode 27, from it there are translated by biligual friend.
So except for the player I can't really improve things, but at the beginning of 2012 years they will have new episodes so you'll can see improvment :)
For the information, French version is at the 38th episode but at the new Arc (Febuary 2012), English and French version will be at the same episodes (Episode 41).
See you, thanks for your comments and the interest that you bear for the series

Kurt Kleinmann rolls up his sleeve and sticks his arm into the gloppiness of '30s, '40s, and '50s movies to retrieve this abandoned presentational style that had once ruled the cinema for a good 35 years (tack on another fifteen for the American theater). Showiness and affectation are nowadays condemned as indulgence, but that artifice was the foundation of the actor's craft for centuries before Stanislavski used psychoanalysis to paintbrush a veneer of respectability on a previously vagrant art.
Although Kleinmann neither wrote nor directed Pegasus' current production, Reefer Madness, his atavistic muse encircles it like a velvet rope. From a large cast of Pegasus regulars, Director J. Mitchell Lambert has elicited slower, more seamless, less strenuously antic performances for this very faithful live staging of Louis Gasnier's 1936 cinematic cannabis cautionary. The results may not be what Pegasus fans have come to expect--the pace of some of the scenes is almost languid, the laughs scattered more sparsely throughout. But for me, it was both a relief and a strangely compelling delight. My sides weren't aching with laughter--a dubious goal, anyway, that Pegasus seems to have pursued with too much dedication in the past. But I was drawn into the pure melodrama of the enterprise and charmed by actors who maneuvered their archetypes with scary precision. There were few winks to the audience at the performance I attended; what prevailed was an interlocked series of performances that summoned a lost, flickering world of harsh judgment and silken decadence.
Maybe it was Mark Hankla's grim, spare set--a series of slightly warped, military-gray rectangles and squares festooned with newspaper slang for hemp and scrambled warnings about its effects. With no props, no furniture, no backgrounds trying to evoke the '30s film, we're left to concentrate solely on the actors in high contrast. I've seen Reefer Madness at least half a dozen times since high school, and Sean Abley's dramatization is faithful down to long blocks of resuscitated dialogue, so it's to the performers' credit that I found myself interested in how they'd deliver the next scene.
We're warned away from the devil's weed by the tragic lives of Bill (Mark Shum) and Mary (Elizabeth Collins), a teenage couple unwittingly drawn into a series of marijuana parties hosted by a pair of no-good adult hoods, Jack (Jim Hopkins) and Mae (Shannon Woelk). The other young couple, Jay (Nye Cooper) and Gwen (Jennifer Earhart), are already semi-regulars to the hotstick fun. Pegasus regulars Andi Allen, Steve Lovett, and Tom Lenaghen round out the sordid action. And yes, it's all here--the crazed piano playing, the furious makeout scenes, the weeping suburban parents, the hit-and-run driving.
I saw Charles Busch perform an original play, Queen Amarantha, that was very much like what Pegasus approximates in Reefer Madness--a serious delivery of a pantingly melodramatic script that had some moments of comic relief. To present such overwrought situations faithfully, letting the audience wring laughter from them where they will, is probably a box-office risk. Ticket-buyers are left to wonder why the actors aren't acknowledging that this is camp. But many of the actors in the Pegasus show were so on-target with their voices and expressions, I marveled at what looked like a cryogenically preserved company thawed just before the curtain (that's a compliment).
Nye Cooper continues to be the model for Pegasus comedy--and pretty much any comic acting in Dallas--with his total immersion in what are essentially cameo roles. He plays a sleazy older boy who gets his girlfriend hooked, a little brother, and most hilariously, a potbellied Southern prosecutor at the marijuana trial. His command of accents and his comic timing are delightful. Jennifer Earhart went from ambitious, wannabe dancer to addicted, wild-haired stripper and prostitute, but kept a comic lifeline between them. I wish Shannon Woelk as Mae, the hostess with the mostest, had more time onstage. She seems like a three-dimensional, celluloid-based hologram of brassy gangster film molls. Jim Hopkins and Adam Haskins were equally vivid noir archaeologists, while Mark Shum and Chris Cason, as young bucks gone wild, wisely play it reserved, until marijuana takes over, and they become nervous, wild-haired jonesers with hilarious Carnival of Souls black eye makeup.
In a weird way, Pegasus Theatre's Reefer Madness rescues that film from the graveyard of camp and makes it relevant again as clumsy, throbbing, improbable tragedy. The cast members choose not to turn their outlandish roles into Silly Putty stretch-a-thons, not to shackle the material with ironic quotation marks by constantly breaking character to mug. For the most part, this Reefer Madness is played as if it were really happening in some twisted forbidden zone where marijuana drives people to suicide, insanity, murder, and prostitution. The actors perform as though they don't even realize they're being watched, which means they never show their hand, and we are left to ponder a completely sincere, crisply articulated nightmare. What makes camp entertaining, after all, is that its creation was unintended and the idea of it ever substituting reality too horrific to consider. When they don't work so hard and just let their talents rise naturally to the surface, these Pegasus actors are funny in a way that includes and ultimately transcends the merely amusing.
Reefer Madness runs through August 29. Call (214) 821-6005.
You can be the snottiest theater critic in the world, but the phrase "For Mature Audiences Only" will still send a little naughty thrill up your spine. Fort Worth's Stage West has attached this caveat on the latest production of its "Adventure Series," Quills. But this Obie Award-winning show by native Dallasite Doug Wright may not be as explicit as some dread (or hope for), says co-star Jerry Russell.
"Some of the stories I'll be telling are outrageous, but they're written in very beautiful, very high-flown language," says Russell, referring to his role as the Marquis de Sade.
Quills concerns de Sade's autumn years in the asylum of Charenton, where his wildly imaginative, erotic, sometimes sadistic stories and plays are tolerated by a gentle-hearted Abbe (Tom McNelly), who is constantly being pressured by the institution's rulers to quash them. The show is written very much as a comedy, "but it's not really camp," insists Russell. "They're theatrical, very artificial. You look at them and obviously know they're not trying to be real, yet there is reality in what they're trying to represent, you know?"
Quills runs August 6-15. Call (817)

A guide to Alaska natural gas projects
Updated September 10, 2014.
Ideas for moving Prudhoe Bay's natural gas bounty off Alaska's North Slope are as plentiful as cottonwood seed in the June air.
Some are modest: Truck small amounts of gas to Fairbanks consumers.
Some are epic: Pipe massive amounts to a Southcentral Alaska liquefied natural gas plant for LNG shipments to Asia — the most expensive North American private-sector construction project ever.
Some are pinned to visions of an Alaska energy utopia, where gas for local use is plentiful and relatively cheap, the oil and gas industry develops new fields by the dozen, the state treasury overflows with wealth, and new industries sprout from the earth like wild lupine.
Some are backed by tens or even hundreds of millions of state dollars to help design, engineer and otherwise prepare for construction. These include the big producer-led LNG project, a much more modest state-led pipeline to Southcentral Alaska and the Fairbanks trucked-LNG project.
Some are little more than a concept looking to catch on.
The great North Slope oil discoveries of the 1960s and 1970s also found an estimated 35 trillion cubic feet of natural gas — almost one and a half times the entire volume of U.S. production in 2012. The U.S. Geological Survey estimates an additional 221 trillion cubic feet await discovery in Alaska's Arctic, onshore and offshore. If only an economically viable way could be found to move the gas to consumers.
Below we summarize several proposals — big and small — for transporting natural gas from Alaska's North Slope.
LNG export project
This would involve an approximately 800-mile mostly buried pipeline from the Prudhoe Bay field on Alaska's North Slope to Southcentral Alaska — the lead site is Nikiski, 60 air miles southwest of Anchorage along Cook Inlet. At the port, a plant would chill the gas to minus 260 degrees to create liquefied natural gas, or LNG, a compressed form of the gas that can be shipped on insulated tankers to markets worldwide.
The 42-inch-diameter pipeline under consideration by the major North Slope producers would carry 3 billion to 3.5 billion cubic feet of natural gas per day. Alaskans would use some of this gas, and running the pipeline and LNG plant would consume some. The plant would make up to 20 million metric tons a year of LNG, the equivalent of 2.5 billion cubic feet a day of gas. That would place it among the world's largest LNG plants.
ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips and BP, the main North Slope producers, plus pipeline company TransCanada, in March 2012 said they are planning a project to export LNG to Asia, where the gas currently can fetch a much higher price than in North America. The state of Alaska joined the effort in January 2014.
Two of the sponsors — ExxonMobil and TransCanada — in 2010 proposed to build a pipeline to Valdez, with someone else constructing and operating an LNG plant there. They found insufficient customer interest at that time to pursue the project. But the global LNG market has changed since then, and they have taken up the new LNG effort with ConocoPhillips, BP and the state. The project team has selected Nikiski as site of its liquefaction plant and export terminal and has been doing environmental field work and engineering.
Estimated cost
$45 billion to more than $65 billion (2012 dollars).
ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips, BP and TransCanada say their cost estimate would cover a pipeline from the Point Thomson gas field to Prudhoe Bay, a massive gas treatment plant at Prudhoe Bay, the roughly 800-mile pipeline to tidewater and compressor stations along the way, a liquefaction plant at a Southcentral Alaska site, LNG storage tanks and a tanker terminal.
Gas for Alaskans
The pipeline concept pursued by the oil producers, TransCanada and the state would provide at least five points from which spur lines could be built to provide gas to Alaskans. Utilities, private companies, the state or someone else would need to build spur lines or local distribution lines from the gas-takeoff points; that would not be part of the main-line work.
|Alaska LNG project
|Sponsors: ExxonMobil /BP /ConocoPhillips /TransCanada/state of Alaska
|Estimated cost: $45 billion to $65 billion
(2012 dollars)
|Route: Parallel the trans-Alaska oil pipeline from Prudhoe Bay to the Fairbanks area. The route then likely would head south to Nikiski along Cook Inlet. A large-scale gas liquefaction plant would be built at the tidewater location.
|Gas for Alaskans: The project would provide at least five points in Alaska from which spur pipelines could be built.
|Status: The sponsors have started preliminary engineering and environmental data gathering, as they also assess the economic viability of an LNG export project. They applied in 2014 for federal authorization for LNG exports.
The North Slope producers, TransCanada and state project is in the pre-front-end engineering and design (pre-FEED) phase in which initial design, technical, environmental and commercial assessment work is done. In January 2014, the parties signed a Heads of Agreement document that laid out terms for the state to become an equity owner in the liquefaction plant and to receive its gas royalties and taxes in the form of natural gas rather than as cash. The Alaska Legislature approved a bill in April 2014 that changed state laws to enable negotiations under this agreement. The HOA provides that with passage of this legislation, pre-FEED activities will accelerate.
The four companies said in 2013 they expected to have spent $80 million to $100 million on the LNG effort from spring 2012 to the end of 2013. Their limited 2013 field season included work on the northern half of the proposed pipeline route to improve their data on fisheries, stream hydrology, water resources, wetlands mapping and other information they would need to apply for project permits. The team has volumes of other route information gathered in earlier, unsuccessful gas line efforts by the same sponsors.
The companies said the 2014 field season work focused on the southern half of the pipeline route, south of Livengood, and on the liquefaction-plant site. They said the full pre-FEED phase will involve about $500 million in spending by the time it is completed in late 2015 or 2016. Then, each sponsor would decide whether to commit to enter the project's next phase, called front-end engineering and design, or FEED. Activities during FEED include more complete design and engineering work, obtaining government permits, assessing and confirming the project's commercial viability, and negotiating fiscal terms with Alaska state government, all in advance of a decision whether to build the project. The sponsors estimate FEED work could cost billions of dollars to reach a final investment decision on the project, which the sponsors say could come in 2018 or 2019.
Construction would take five to six years, they have estimated.
- Short-term economic boost to Alaska during construction.
- With the right project economics, long-term boost as billions of dollars in revenue flows to the state treasury, the Alaska Permanent Fund and local governments along the pipeline route.
- Southcentral Alaska gets new industry based on LNG exports.
- Outlet for natural gas now stranded on Alaska's North Slope would spur oil and gas exploration.
- Relatively inexpensive gas made available for heating and power generation in the Fairbanks area.
- For Southcentral Alaska, the project likely provides a new, affordable source of natural gas to supplement Cook Inlet's declining supplies.
- A very expensive option. High cost makes project risky for lenders that would supply construction financing.
- Shippers must sign long-term commitments to use the pipeline and liquefaction plant (perhaps 15 or 20 years) and find long-term buyers for the gas in an Asia-Pacific LNG market that other exporters are targeting. Long-term contracts are needed to underpin financing.
- Intense competition among LNG suppliers for Asia customers and prospects of weaker prices due to a buyers' market in the years ahead.
- Fairbanks-area energy costs remain relatively high until pipeline is running.
- Southcentral Alaska could need supplemental source of natural gas before pipeline is finished.
A smaller-scale LNG project
Separately, a Japanese company called Resources Energy Inc. is proposing a smaller-scale LNG plant in Southcentral Alaska. The company was formed in late 2011 by Japan's Hyogo Prefecture, a regional government, as well as other business interests and several small Japanese utilities affected by that nation's nuclear power plant shutdowns following an earthquake and tsunami that year.
As conceived, the smaller-scale plant would cost around $1 billion and make up to 1 million metric tons of LNG per year, or an average of about 133 million cubic feet of natural gas per day, for export to Japan. The gas would come from potential local production in the neighboring Cook Inlet basin or from a proposed small-scale, state-sponsored gas pipeline project from Prudhoe Bay to Southcentral Alaska.
Alternatively, if the North Slope producers, TransCanada and state build a large-scale gas pipeline, REI says it could build a $20.3 billion LNG plant with four production trains producing 15 million metric tons of LNG annually for export as well as arrange shipping. Including a North Slope gas treatment plant and pipeline would bring total development costs to $38 billion to $45 billion, REI says, though it would prefer that someone else take the lead on those pieces.
REI said it completed feasibility studies in spring 2013 that cost $10 million to $20 million. REI would rely on others to produce the natural gas and build a pipeline from the North Slope to its plant. REI said it is working to find investors in its idea. Also ahead would be engineering and design, financing, government authorizations, environmental impact statements and purchase contracts with buyers.
Pipeline to Alberta
This proposal was active until 2012; considerable work was completed in the preceding years.
The project conceived an approximately 1,700-mile, 48-inch buried pipeline from the Prudhoe Bay field on Alaska's North Slope to the British Columbia-Alberta border in Canada. From there, the gas could flow to the Lower 48 via an extensive network of existing pipelines.
The gas pipeline would run parallel the trans-Alaska oil pipeline from Prudhoe Bay to Delta Junction, then continue into Canada roughly parallel to the Alaska Highway. The pipeline would move up to 4.5 billion cubic feet of gas per day.
Estimated cost
$32 billion to $41 billion (2009 dollars).
The project is inactive, as North American shale-gas production has amply supplied the market and deflated prices.The Alaska Pipeline Project spent more than $300 million from the project onset through 2011. The sponsor essentially ended the project in early 2012. In January 2012, the sponsor filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission volumes of data on fish, wildlife, soils, vegetation, cultural sites, air quality and other information that can be used for the environmental impact statement FERC would prepare. Much of that data also could be used for an EIS on the LNG-project pipeline, because some of the route in Alaska would be same as the route for an Alberta line.
Pipeline to Southcentral
A 737-mile, 36-inch buried pipeline from the Prudhoe Bay field on Alaska's North Slope to the Big Lake area north of Anchorage. From there, the gas could flow to consumers, utilities and other industry via the local distribution pipelines of ENSTAR Natural Gas Co. The pipeline also would supply the Fairbanks area.
The line would parallel the trans-Alaska oil pipeline from Prudhoe Bay to just north of Fairbanks, then continue south to Big Lake, roughly parallel to the Parks Highway.
The pipeline would move up to 500 million cubic feet of gas per day. The project also is known as the "bullet line," the in-state line and the Alaska Stand Alone Pipeline, or ASAP.
Alaska Gasline Development Corp., a state agency the Legislature created in 2010. Some supporters say the state-led effort is a backup if the larger producer-led project stalls. Other supporters see it as the state controlling its energy future, rather than waiting for the major oil and gas producers to act.
Estimated cost
$5.4 billion to $10 billion (2012 dollars). Sponsor is using midpoint of $7.7 billion as a working number.
The cost includes a gas treatment plant at the Prudhoe Bay field to remove propane, butane and other gas liquids as well as water, carbon dioxide and other impurities from the gas, then compress the gas before it enters the pipeline. The cost also includes a separate 35-mile spur line between the main pipeline and Fairbanks.
Project cost does not include a local gas distribution network needed for Fairbanks. The local gas pipeline network already exists in much of Southcentral.
Gas for Alaskans
Gas for Alaskans was the main idea when the state Legislature funded a feasibility study in 2010.
|Project information
|Sponsor: Alaska Gasline Development Corp.
|Estimated cost: $5.4 billion to $10 billion
(2012 dollars)
|Route: Parallel the trans-Alaska oil pipeline from Prudhoe Bay to just north of Fairbanks, then continue south to Big Lake, roughly parallel to the Parks Highway.
|Gas for Alaskans: That is the main purpose of this proposal. Pipeline would supply Fairbanks and Southcentral.
|Status: Design, permitting work under way. Decision on building planned for 2016.
The feasibility study issued in July 2011 provided a preliminary plan. In 2013, the Alaska Legislature appropriated about $355 million to continue design, permitting and commercial work. That's in addition to $72 million in funding for 2010–2012. The Legislature in 2013 also granted the state gas pipeline corporation unlimited authority to issue bonds to pay for construction, with the restriction that the state is not legally or morally responsible for the debt. Bond buyers would be repaid from revenue collected from the pipeline's customers, including utilities and large commercial customers.
Proposed timeline
2013–2015 - Project sponsor sharpens engineering and cost estimate, obtains permits.
Early 2015 - Customers solicited to ship gas on the pipeline, called an "open season." Customer response will help determine the project's economic viability.
Early 2016 - Final decision on whether to build project.
2016–2019 - Construction.
Late 2019 - First gas flows to Fairbanks; 2020 gas flows to Southcentral Alaska.
- Short-term economic boost to Alaska during construction of multibillion-dollar project.
- The project could deliver gas to Fairbanks and Southcentral before a larger pipeline to an LNG plant in Southcentral Alaska.
- Assuming the pipeline operates at full capacity and preliminary construction-cost estimates hold true, Alaska's Railbelt consumers could be assured of an affordable gas supply for decades. In Southcentral Alaska, the gas could supplement Cook Inlet supplies used for heating and power generation. Delivering natural gas to Fairbanks could greatly lower that community's high cost of energy.
- The project might help resurrect the Kenai Peninsula LNG plant that exported gas from 1969 through 2012. It then shut down due to a lack of Cook Inlet gas supply.
- Requires the state gas line corporation to issue billions of dollars in revenue bonds for construction, and could need direct state funding if the pipeline lacks enough customers to carry the full cost. The state Legislature would need to approve direct financial aid.
- The construction cost estimate is soft until more engineering work is done. A much higher cost than the midpoint $7.7 billion estimate would alter the project economics.
- Requires major gas shippers to make long-term commitments to use the pipeline.
- The project would produce far less state revenue than a larger pipeline for an LNG export project due to the small volume of gas moved.
- Requires the state to bear all of the pre-construction cost because no private developer will do so.
- The cost of gas to Alaskans would be higher than gas from the larger LNG export project.
- The project would not spark as much Arctic oil and gas exploration as the bigger pipeline.
- The project relies on assumptions about customer demand that must come true to meet the pipeline rates and consumer prices predicted for the project. These include:
- A major mine, such as the Donlin gold prospect in Western Alaska, will start up by 2019 and contract for a significant volume of gas down the line.
- A utility or utilities will build a local gas distribution pipeline network in Fairbanks by the time the pipeline from Prudhoe Bay is ready.
- Cook Inlet gas production will fall to such a point that power plants and the local gas utility in Southcentral Alaska will consume a lot of North Slope gas.
- A revived liquefied natural gas export plant on the Kenai Peninsula or other large-volume industrial customer(s) will contract for much of the pipeline's capacity.
Cook Inlet gas
Out of concern that aging Cook Inlet fields might not produce enough gas for local needs after doing so for nearly 50 years, two Anchorage electric utilities and a gas utility in 2011 jointly began considering the idea of importing liquefied natural gas or compressed natural gas to Southcentral Alaska. Other utilities soon joined the effort. In particular, the utilities were concerned they didn't have enough gas supply under contract for coming years.
Since then, their sense of urgency has eased somewhat as Cook Inlet producers are stepping forward to offer increased gas production to cover the next several years.
Also, in June 2011 the U.S. Geological Survey said the Cook Inlet region still holds an estimated 19 trillion cubic feet of natural gas that could be produced using current technology.
That's about double the total Cook Inlet gas production over the past 50 years. But how much of the gas could be produced profitably with current technology likely is a much smaller number, possibly as little as 10 percent.
Separately in June 2011, the Alaska Division of Oil and Gas estimated that Cook Inlet alone could continue to profitably supply all of the region's natural gas needs until 2018–2020, at which time supplemental supplies would be needed. The study said the gas industry must continue investing in the Inlet for this prediction to hold.
The state Legislature in recent years has approved incentives to boost Cook Inlet gas exploration and production.
New players include Furie Operating Alaska, which moved a jack-up rig to Cook Inlet and is drilling, Buccaneer Energy, which has a stake in a different jack-up rig partly owned by the state, and Hilcorp, which acquired Chevron and Marathon's holdings in Cook Inlet and boosted development spending for oil and gas production.
In 2010, state lawmakers passed tax credits and other incentives to encourage development of an underground gas storage facility on the Kenai Peninsula. The goal was to help utilities meet peak winter demand by storing surplus spring-and-summer production. Such a storage site opened in 2012.
Gas to Fairbanks by truck or pipe
Ideas have been floated for getting North Slope natural gas to the Fairbanks area, where energy costs are much higher than in Southcentral Alaska and only a little natural gas is available, via truck deliveries from a privately owned LNG plant north of Anchorage.
LNG trucked to Fairbanks area
|Project information
|Sponsor: Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority
|Estimated cost: $430 million-plus
|Route: Trucks would transport the LNG down the Dalton Highway from Prudhoe Bay to the Fairbanks area.
|Gas for Alaskans: This project would bring gas only to the Fairbanks area initially.
|Status: $363 million state cash-and-loan package available. Companies have been selected to both to build and operate a North Slope LNG plant and to expand the local gas-distribution system in the Fairbanks area.
In 2013, the Alaska Legislature approved a $333 million cash-and-loan package requested by Gov. Sean Parnell for a small-volume North Slope LNG plant as well as storage and distribution infrastructure in the state's Interior. A year earlier, state lawmakers approved $30 million in tax credits for the LNG storage tanks the Fairbanks area would need to receive trucked deliveries. Escalating heating-oil bills in the Fairbanks area prompted the state to act.
With private money added, the Interior Energy Project, as the state named it, could total $430 million or more. This total would include building gas distribution pipelines in a limited area of the Fairbanks region; the state estimates expanding the grid could cost an additional $200 million.
At the center of the funding is the Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority, a state agency that supports economic development. With the state's financial assistance for the project, AIDEA believes LNG will be more affordable than oil-based fuels.
AIDEA would use the $57.5 million cash appropriation from 2013 for an equity stake in the LNG plant and perhaps other aspects of the project. AIDEA also is authorized to lend $125 million at a low interest rate and issue on the open market $150 million in other low-interest debt to raise money for the project.
The plan is for a private operator or operators to:
- Build the gas liquefaction plant on the North Slope.
- Own and operate a fleet of LNG delivery trucks running between the plant and Fairbanks. The trucks were not included in the state's cost estimate for the project.
- Build and operate aboveground LNG storage tanks.
- Build and operate "regasification" equipment to warm the gas back into a vapor and feed it into a distribution grid for delivery to residences and businesses around Fairbanks.
The LNG plant would be designed to process up to 9 billion cubic feet of gas a year — averaging 25 million cubic feet a day — slightly more than the forecasted Fairbanks-area demand 10 years after start-up (capacity would be greater than demand to accommodate seasonal swings in demand, AIDEA says).
In January 2014, the AIDEA board chose global infrastructure firm MWH Americas Inc. to develop and run the LNG plant at Prudhoe Bay. MWH proposed to invest $82.5 million in equity and debt.
The LNG would be used as a fuel to heat buildings, including homes, and generate electricity.
The project sponsors foresee three main customers:
- Fairbanks Natural Gas, a small, privately owned local utility that already has a limited pipeline network in the city of Fairbanks. The company now distributes LNG trucked from Southcentral Alaska.
- Interior Gas Utility, a new utility that the cities of Fairbanks and North Pole set up in 2012 and that the Fairbanks North Star Borough eventually took over. In December 2013, the Regulatory Commission of Alaska chose this utility over Fairbanks Natural Gas to provide gas to North Pole and other somewhat densely populated areas outside the city of Fairbanks. Interior Gas plans to install a local gas-pipeline distribution system to be ready when LNG deliveries begin. The North Pole population totals only a little more than 2,000 people, but a sizable power plant is there.
- Golden Valley Electric Association, the regional power company with a generating plant in North Pole that currently burns diesel and naphtha. The naphtha turbine could be converted to burn natural gas instead.
AIDEA says that if the proposal's many parts come together easily and quickly, the first LNG could move to Fairbanks by late 2015 or early 2016. But AIDEA acknowledges that schedule is "aggressive."
Piped natural gas to Fairbanks
|Project information
|Sponsor: Fairbanks Pipeline Co. (Energia Cura)
|Estimated cost: $716 million
|Route: Prudhoe Bay to the Fairbanks area following state highways.
|Gas for Alaskans: This project would bring gas to the Fairbanks area, but sponsor says it could be expanded to supply extra gas for Southcentral.
|Status: Planning stage
Fairbanks Pipeline Co. started in 2010 and is proposing a 514-mile Prudhoe Bay-to-North Pole pipeline to deliver natural gas to Interior Alaska customers. Fairbanks Pipeline is owned by Energia Cura, a Fairbanks energy consulting and service business.
The company said it is targeting Golden Valley Electric, military bases, trans-Alaska pipeline pump stations and mines, as well as Fairbanks Natural Gas, the small local gas utility. It has estimated the 12-inch buried pipeline would cost $716 million, delivering 52 million cubic feet of gas per day on average.
The route would follow state highways. The Energia owners have funded costs so far. They hope others, including the state, possibly through its Permanent Fund oil-wealth savings account, Alaska Native corporations or other Alaska employers become owners.

Trabuco Hills boys basketball head coach Sean Sullens has no intention of easing the Mustangs into his first season at the helm.
In the opening week alone, Trabuco Hills faced South Coast League foe Capistrano Valley, then an athletic Temecula Valley squad and the county's top team, Mater Dei.
"Our goal is to be ready for the last eight games of the season, for the Sea View (League)," Sullens said.
The Mustangs' upgraded tournament and nonleague slate also includes games against four of the top six teams in the preseason county rankings.
Reflecting on throwing his team immediately into the competitive fire, Sullens brings up Tom Izzo's Michigan State teams, their frequent success in the NCAA tournament and with their willingness to play big games early in the season.
"I'm not saying we're Michigan State, what I'm saying is we'll play anybody early to get us ready for late (in the season)," he said. "Because if you go into league (play) 10-2 and then go 4-4, some people say that's a successful season. We'd rather go in maybe 9-7 and run off an 8-0 or 7-1, and that's what we're looking to do."
When he was hired, Sullens, a 1999 Trabuco Hills alumnus, said he was coming into a good situation, inheriting an experienced group of players.
Defense "needs to be what we hang our hat on," Sullens said. And on offense he wants his team to play quickly, reversing the ball and cutting to the basket.
The experienced team is made up almost entirely of seniors, highlighted by center Brandon Fagins, and guards Redd Tucker and Kyle Grepo.
"We work good as a team, we pass the ball around," Tucker said. "Everybody contributes, everybody knows what they need to do."
At 6-8, Fagins can alter shots in the paint and give defenders trouble down low.
Fagins also likes to step away from the basket and shoot 3-pointers, sometimes a little more than his coach would like. But when he's making them, it's a dangerous weapon, as it was in the season opener when he hit four 3s and led the Mustangs to a win with 21 points.
"He anchors our defense," Sullens said. "When he's in and active, you're only going to score on jump shots on us. So Brandon is the defensive anchor, there's no doubt about that. … And offensively, when he attacks, when he is going to the basket, we're tough to beat, we're really tough to defend."
Grepo and Tucker are the team's leaders.
"They're our two primary ball handlers," Sullens said. "They're our two guys that down the stretch we want them at least making the decisions, we don't necessarily want them taking the shot, but making the decision."
