'We want to become masterful at working shale. Not only here, but on a global basis.' [...] And if natural gas gets even cheaper? That would give BHP only more opportunities to pick off weaklings, it says. With their decades-long view, Kloppers and Yeager don’t doubt in the least that world demand for gas, as a cleaner-burning fuel to supplant coal and oil, will grow."
