Hi friends

Need some help with the Heb terms for the stuff between asterisks:

Increased resources allocated to unconventional *development plays* such as *oil sands*' *GTL*, *remote LNG* (think LNG stands for Liquified Natural Gas, but what is remote about it and what is it called in Heb?) and *tight gas*.
