The early 2020s saw major changes in the global LNG business, as it responded to the impact of COVID-19, the Ukraine war and energy transition. LNG and natural gas prices swung from a low point of $2/MMBtu in 2020, when demand fell with the COVID crisis, to over $70/MMBtu in 2022, as Europe’s demand surged in the aftermath of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. However, 2023 and 2024 have been years of fewer shocks. Prices have been more stable but were around double the pre-COVID level. LNG supply and demand growth has slowed around 5% in 2021 and 2022 to 2% in 2023 and 1.5% in 2024. High prices and slowing economic growth have affected demand while unscheduled maintenance has reduced output from operating plants. There have also been delays in the start-up of some projects under construction. The only additions to liquefaction capacity in 2024 were a 0.6 mtpa project in Congo and a 1.4 mtpa project offshore Altamira in Mexico.
The outlook for growth in supply in the second half of the 2020s is much brighter with major new liquefaction projects in Qatar, USA and Canada scheduled to come on stream, adding around 200 mtpa of liquefaction capacity to the 485 mtpa in operation at the end of 2024. There will be declines in output from some of the operating plants as reserves deplete and older trains are taken offline, but supply and demand is expected to increase from 408 mtpa in 2024 to 645 mtpa by 2030. Projects with a total capacity of over 400 mtpa are at the planning stage and developers of over 100 mtpa of this capacity are targeting a Final Investment Decision (FID) by the end of 2025. However, there is uncertainty over how many of these projects will be required to meet long-term demand as governments of the existing and prospective LNG importing countries target net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 or 2060. Developers argue that natural gas and LNG will be needed to help manage the transition to renewables while environmentalists see natural gas as just another fossil fuel whose use has to be reduced if targets to slow climate change are to be achieved. Some buyers and financiers have been reluctant to commit to supply from new LNG projects that are looking to produce LNG into the 2040s to remunerate the investment of billions of US dollars.
The online course will, over 6 sessions, discuss the issues facing the LNG business as it seeks to meet consumer needs up to 2050. It will focus on commercial issues, but technology and shipping will also be covered. It will consider the outlook for the business in terms of markets, sources of supply, pricing and trading and the response to energy transition. It is designed not only for newcomers to LNG but also those who want to refresh their knowledge.
