    Brief: This course spotlights gas contracts, from the wellhead to the burner tip, with a special emphasis on wholesale gas trading and marketing contracts.  You will learn all the basic provisions of gas contracts, in a step by step review.  You will be able to distinguish between a standard gas marketing contract, and a futures contract or a swap contract.  In addition, attendees will receive a brief overview of Federal laws and regulations relating to natural gas merchants, and learn the secrets all good gas contractors should know at the outset.  The course will conclude with a negotiation exercise where you will be able to apply the contract knowledge you have gained in a friendly setting.  This vital course should be taken by all who are new to the natural gas contracting business.
