Global LNG Markets
A 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.

India Gas Market & Market Liberalisation

India is a rapidly developing economy which is having a significant impact on the Indian energy sector. In this article we aim to provide a background study of the India gas market.

Players Involved
The two main firms involved in exploration and production of natural gas up until the 90s when India started to introduce competition were Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited (ONGC) and Oil India Limited (OIL) both state owned firms. ONGC operating mainly along the western off-shore area of India as well as within other states, and OIL operating within Rajasthan and Assam states; other players now involved in E&P are the Joint Venture (JVs) consortiums and private investors in fields in Tapti, Panna-Mukta and Ravva being the other main producers. In the mid 80s the government set up the organisation now known as GAIL India Limited (prev. Gas Authority of India Ltd), this firm was set up by the government to help achieve sustained development of the gas market in India, GAIL is currently the primary transmission and marketing company in India, owning approximately 4,600 km of pipeline a growing number out of a national total of about 6,500 km, the transmission and distribution sector is currently open to private investment.
