Abstract

Overview

Introduction

This is the first in a seris of two briefs, entitled Atlantic Basin LNG Market Dynamics, that focuses on the LNG markets in the US and Europe.LNG is an increasingly important alternative energy source in both the US and European energy landscape. By analysing the largest LNG market in the Atlantic Basin, it is possible to understand the long term development of the Atlantic Basin market.

Scope

• An understanding of the market dynamics driving the LNG market in the United States.
• The unique position of the United States in the global LNG market.
• An overview of the global LNG market, and the factors that is leading LNG growth.
• A overview of the major Atlantic Basin LNG producers, and their ability to fulfil the supply needs of the Atlantic Basin.

Report Highlights

LNG prices are not as volatile as natural gas prices, especially in the years prior to 2005. LNG, although used principally for power generation, is mainly a peak shaving commodity. That is, it is stored to offset seasonality and high peak periods. This explains the lower price volatility of LNG compared to natural gas.

Canada has been the major supplier of natural gas to the US market. However, Canadian gas exports to the US has fallen by seven percent over the past five years. LNG is therefore a viable solution to compensate for the decreasing production of gas and gas imports from Canada.

Algeria is the largest exporter of Atlantic Basin LNG (24.68 bcm) followed by Nigeria (17.58 bcm) and Trinidad and Tobago (16.25 bcm).

Reasons to Purchase
