"Under these alternative project assumptions, the breakeven price into the global market to get that 10% return for the investors would be $9.63 per thousand cubic feet. That compares to $8.48 per thousand cubic feet under our baseline analysis... the very LNG breakeven price would be $9.69 per thousand cubic feet, comparing to $8.54 per thousand cubic feet under our baseline assumptions. And so across the board, these, these alternative assumptions increase the required sales price of gas into the global market by a little over $1 per 1,000 cubic feet."

From the transcript
Slide 6 is the similar slide under Senate Bill 280 as introduced by the Governor. Under these alternative project assumptions, the breakeven price into the global market to get that 10% return for the investors would be $9.63 per thousand cubic feet. That compares to $8.48 per thousand cubic feet under our baseline analysis. And then on slide 7, which is the bill before the committee, the very LNG breakeven price would be $9.69 per thousand cubic feet, comparing to $8.54 per thousand cubic feet under our baseline assumptions. And so across the board, these, these alternative assumptions increase the required sales price of gas into the global market by a little over $1 per 1,000 cubic feet.

Department of Revenue modeling shows that if the Alaska LNG project costs $60 billion instead of the baseline $46.2 billion, the price needed to break even in global markets would jump by $1.60 per thousand cubic feet, significantly affecting project viability and the state's fiscal analysis of competing tax proposals.
