GLOBAL LNG MARKETS

one day seminar

Understanding the physical and commercial realities of LNG

The LNG business is expanding at an unprecedented rate as buyers seek alternative sources of supply to meet increasing natural gas demand and replace declining domestic production. A record number of new liquefaction and regasification terminals are under construction or being planned. Rapidly rising construction costs are creating new challenges for liquefaction projects and developers of regasification terminals are finding it difficult to secure long-term supplies.

Presented by LNG experts Andy Flower and David Ledesma, this one-day course is an ideal opportunity for delegates to learn about the realities and challenges of this rapidly changing business.
