Yes, and I appreciate all you say here, and I think you have a good grip on the events as to the follow through effects and the economics of the current situation.

Though I mentioned the exporting of energy I realize it will take some time for the U.S. to start exporting oil and natural gas in quantity to have any effect, perhaps significant time as the energy crisis continues.

The current development of oil and gas pipelines is really a gathering of smaller projects, but quite a few per year are many hundreds of miles long being webbed in and directly delivered to areas where it would be cheaper for a community than a long distance delivery from a more indirect, distant, much larger pipeline site.

I bear in mind a turbine unit is needed for every approx. 35 miles as I remember? Correct me if I am wrong here. It is possible those multiple units in the most recent sale could be all C-30s, or only few C-65s. I am thinking few and small due to the mystery of the announced numbers; the "new" client with multiple orders being the driver of the pr.

Here's some "up to date info." as of April 16, 2015 on the updated lists of approved and pending oil and gas pipelines. Of course the question is how many of them were approved, built and paid for.

Government intent on speeding up the process, it seems:

Gas and oil Pipelines:

April 16, 2015 - Item G-1: FERC Implements New Policy on Cost Recovery for Natural Gas Facilities Modernization News Release

Under section 7 of the Natural Gas Act, the Commission reviews applications for the construction and operation of natural gas pipelines. In its application review, the Commission ensures that the applicant has certified that it will comply with Department of Transportation safety standards. The Commission has no jurisdiction over pipeline safety or security, but actively works with other agencies with safety and security responsibilities. To meet the growing demand for natural gas, the Commission must continue to respond quickly when companies propose to expand and construct needed pipelines and related facilities. The Commission has expedited the certification of natural gas pipelines by having Commission staff actively participate in projects that were using the pre-filing process to engage stakeholders in the identification and resolution of stakeholder concerns prior to the filing of a certificate application with the Commission. The staff's participation and initiative in these efforts will allow for the filing of better certificate applications enabling more efficient and expeditious licensing actions by the Commission.
