"A major aim of this study is to test the proposition that LNG markets will become increasingly 'global'. In the process, the study illuminates the very substantial changes unfolding in the Atlantic and Pacific Basin LNG markets. The evolution of short-term and spot transactions, and the development of arbitrage opportunities within the Atlantic Basin and between the Atlantic and the Pacific, have been identified as important trends, as demand for LNG increases, particularly in the United States."--BOOK JACKET.

The present situation in the LNG market should be seen as a 'crossroads' for the industry. The LNG industry has not been static over the past 5 decades and has already experienced many changes, but still the model of long-term contracts prevails and the majority of LNG is still bought at oil-indexed gas prices. There have however been considerable changes: an increase in short-term trading of LNG, buyer contractual flexibility and FOB contracts which have lead to around a quarter of the LNG is being traded under spot and short-term contracts, with aggregators play a far more significant role. All these factors have influenced project business structures. The industry has now embarked on a period of further change, with 180 bcm of new LNG export capacity (equivalent to more than 50% of LNG trade in 2014) under construction at a time when the assumed rapid LNG demand growth in Asia appears to be slowing. The absorption of this new supply will affect, not only trade-flow patterns, but also pricing dynamics, competition with other gas supply channels and (in the power sector) potentially other fuels. Key to this change is US LNG, with buyers becoming more selective about the price and delivery terms they are ready to accept. Sellers however are facing high costs and are reluctant to abandon a business model in which they have confidence. Oil indexation is under further attack with US LNG selling at HH indexed prices (plus costs), and other sellers and buyers have been pressured to adopt different pricing policies and secure more contractual flexibility. This volume examines the development of the LNG business over the past 50 years and examines how the industry will change over the coming 15 years, faced by unprecedented challenges to its historic business model.

Book Synopsis Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) in U.S. Energy Policy by : Paul W. Parfomak
Download or read book Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) in U.S. Energy Policy written by Paul W. Parfomak and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt:
Liquefied natural gas (LNG) imports to the United States are increasing to supplement domestic gas production. Government officials such as the Federal Reserve Chairman and the Secretary of Energy have spoken in favor of LNG imports to mitigate high energy prices. Through regulatory and administrative actions, federal agencies are trying to attract private capital for LNG infrastructure, streamline the LNG terminal approval process, and promote LNG trade. Were these policies to continue and gas demand to grow, LNG might account for as much as 21% of U.S. gas supply by 2025, up from 3% in 2004. Congress is examining the infrastructure and market implications of greater U.S. LNG demand. There are concerns about how LNG capacity additions would be integrated into the nation's gas infrastructure. Meeting projected U.S. LNG demand would require six to ten new import terminals in addition to expansion of four existing terminals. Five new terminals in the Gulf of Mexico are approved, but public opposition has blocked near-to-market terminals which might save billions of dollars in gas transportation costs. New LNG terminals can also require more regional pipeline capacity to transport their supply, although this capacity may not be available in key markets. Securing LNG infrastructure against accidents and terrorist attacks may also be a challenge to public agencies. Since import terminals process large volumes of LNG, a breakdown at any facility has the potential to bottleneck supply. LNG's effectiveness in moderating U.S. gas prices will be determined by global LNG supply, the development of a "spot" market, potential market concentration, and evolving trading relationships. There appears to be sufficient interest among LNG exporters to meet global demand projections, although it remains to be seen which new export projects will be built. An LNG spot market, which may help U.S. companies import LNG cost-effectively, also appears to be growing. Although some industry analysts believe the future LNG market may be influenced by a natural gas cartel, the potential effectiveness of a such a cartel is unclear. Whether exporters cooperate or not, an integrated global LNG market may change trading and political relationships. In a global market, individual country energy polices may affect LNG price and availability worldwide. Trade with LNG exporters perceived as politically unstable or inhospitable to U.S. interests may raise concerns about supply reliability. Recent measures before Congress (H.R. 4413 in the 109th Congress, S. 2095 in the 108th Congress, and P.L. 108-199) would affect LNG imports by encouraging domestic gas production and new LNG terminal construction, although Congress has not been explicit about the desirability of imported LNG overall. As Congress debates U.S. natural gas policy, three questions emerge: (1) Is expanding LNG imports the best option for meeting natural gas demand in the United States? (2) What role, if any, should the federal government play in facilitating the development of LNG infrastructure domestically and abroad? (3) How might Congress mitigate the risks of the global LNG trade within the context of national energy policy? This report will be updated as events warrant.

Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is a commercially attractive phase of the commodity that facilitates the efficient handling and transportation of natural gas around the world. The LNG industry, using technologies proven over decades of development, continues to expand its markets, diversify its supply chains and increase its share of the global natural gas trade. The Handbook of Liquefied Natural Gas is a timely book as the industry is currently developing new large sources of supply and the technologies have evolved in recent years to enable offshore infrastructure to develop and handle resources in more remote and harsher environments. It is the only book of its kind, covering the many aspects of the LNG supply chain from liquefaction to regasification by addressing the LNG industries’ fundamentals and markets, as well as detailed engineering and design principles. A unique, well-documented, and forward-thinking work, this reference book provides an ideal platform for scientists, engineers, and other professionals involved in the LNG industry to gain a better understanding of the key basic and advanced topics relevant to LNG projects in operation and/or in planning and development. Highlights the developments in the natural gas liquefaction industries and the challenges in meeting environmental regulations Provides guidelines in utilizing the full potential of LNG assets Offers advices on LNG plant design and operation based on proven practices and design experience Emphasizes technology selection and innovation with focus on a “fit-for-purpose design Updates code and regulation, safety, and security requirements for LNG applications

Scientific Essay from the year 2011 in the subject Energy Sciences, grade: A, Coventry University, course: MSc Oil & Gas Management, language: English, abstract: The LNG industry is experiencing strong growth in its current market- posting an impressive 297.63 bcm in LNG imports during 2010(BP 2011: 29). However, it is still a budding industry because Russia and Iran- owners of the largest gas reserves in the world are still fledgling LNG exporters (Economides and Wood 2009). According to Kumar et al. (2011) LNG is also a clean substitute over petrol and diesel. Moreover the Asian tigers like Japan, China and India are still growing their economies (ExxonMobil 2010: 8). Thus, the Asian tigers’ LNG demand, the eco-nature of LNG, coupled with Russia and Iran’s LNG exports - can create a more robust LNG market in the future. This paper examines the existing and future market of LNG – in the light of major LNG players in each region.
