Surplus built up Surplus gas drives down prices Price deregulation Arbitration awards price increase Gas prices as a by-product of oil production. Price less than replacement cost Figure 9 Historical natural gas production and price
Late 1990’s – mine closures and reduced coal exports due to depressed coal prices 1970’s – increase in coal-fired electric generation 1952 – Beginning of change to diesel-electric trains 1950’s – Crude oil and natural gas replace coal as energy source of choice Late1960’s – Beginning of exports to Japan for steel industry 1898 – Expansion of railway network (coal and oil fired steam engines) and growth of population 1960 – Steam rail era ends Coal remained “King Coal” until huge reservoirs of crude oil and natural gas were discovered Figure 11 Historical coal production and price Australian-Japan contract price for thermal coal (Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics - ABARE)
