From the transcript
So this scenario really looks just at that capital expenditure change and what the impacts of that are. So slide 19 shows the current tax law analysis with a $60 billion capital expenditure. This would result in a breakeven LNG price into the global market of $10.69 per thousand cubic feet. That compares to $9.07 per thousand cubic feet under our baseline assumptions. So a move of about $1.60 just from increasing that capital cost assumption really highlights the importance of of that capital cost assumption.
