Investment, Infrastructure Development Will Thrive for Years in Canadian Oil Sands
President Obama's denial of TransCanada's application for the Keystone XL pipeline is only a temporary setback to increasing the amount of Canadian crude available to the U.S. Ultimately, there will be additional means of transporting crude from Canada to U.S. refiners, whether it is a modified TransCanada XL pipeline, proposals by Enbridge or other construction. Despite the delays in pipeline infrastructure, investment in developing the oil sands will thrive for years.

Delays in Pipeline Projects Won't Halt Development of Canadian Oil Sands
Although two major proposed North American crude-oil pipelines -- Keystone XL and Northern Gateway -- have been delayed, development of Canada's massive oil sands deposits will not be affected, according to Jesus Davis, Industrial Info's vice president of research for the Oil & Gas Production, Transmission and Terminals industries. Mr. Davis also expects that development of the Eagle Ford and Bakken shales will be even more rapid in 2012 compared to 2011, aided by pipeline reversals and new pipeline construction. Join the host of Navigating the Currents of Change along with Mr. Davis to learn more about these and other trends influencing spending in 2012.

Power Industry Ends 'Roller Coaster' Year, Looks to Increase Project Spending in 2012
The North American Power industry had a "roller-coaster" year in 2011, driven by an "onslaught" of new regulations from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) (Washington, D.C), according to Brock Ramey, Industrial Info's manager of North American Power. But the industry's project spending rose in 2011 to about $76 billion, and further gains are expected in 2012 and beyond as big-ticket items like the Vogtle and Summer nuclear expansion projects are scheduled to begin construction.

Power Show Focuses on Latin America's Need for More Electricity
A September 2011 massive blackout that briefly interrupted production at Chile's copper mines and plunged a majority of Chile's population into darkness demonstrated the fragile state of the Chilean electric system. And the need for investment in the Power sector extends well beyond Chile, as strong demand for Metals & Minerals and the rise of consumer economies have stretched generators and transmission systems across Latin America. Kallman Worldwide will hold an international energy exhibition and conference next May in Santiago, Chile, to spur greater investment in all aspects of Latin America's electric business. Tom Kallman, president and chief executive at Kallman Worldwide, was interviewed by phone from Santiago after he secured support for the trade show from Chile's energy minister.

Industrial Manufacturers: 2011 was Very Good, 2012 Should Be Even Better
North American industrial manufacturers dramatically increased their project spending in 2011, and the industry's outlook for 2012 is even brighter, according to David Pickering, Industrial Info's vice president of research for the Industrial Manufacturing Industry. Driven by healthy increases in spending on auto manufacturing and rail projects, the industry is on track to double its spending on capital and maintenance projects this year compared to 2010 spending. Looking forward, one x-factor for 2012 spending is whether U.S. consumers will continue to buy electric and hybrid vehicles now that gasoline prices have dipped back under $3 per gallon in some markets.

Can Clean and Green Hydro Power Maintain its Share of U.S. Electricity Mix?
Hydropower accounts for about 7% of U.S. electricity, but this clean and green resource may be hard pressed to maintain its share of the electricity mix given the lengthy environmental permitting process facing grassroot projects as well as existing projects that seek to expand or be relicensed. Brock Ramey, IIR's research manager for North American power, discusses trends and opportunities in the hydro sector in this exclusive "Navigating the Currents of Change" interview.
