This major new report by business analysts Douglas-Westwood examines the current and future prospects, technologies and markets for the LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) sector.
Despite the global recession, the outlook for long-term gas demand remains high. LNG offers an effective alternative to piped gas supply and is seen as an increasingly important solution to the monetisation of isolated gas reserves. Overall global Capex on LNG facilities for the 2010-2014 period is forecast to total over $108 billion - a growth of 10% relative to the 2005-2009 period.
The report is unique in providing a complete overview of the whole LNG process chain, encompassing liquefaction plants, carriers and regasification terminals.
In common with other reports of Douglas-Westwood's acclaimed series, The World LNG Market Report will be useful for executive readers. The report does not assume a detailed technical knowledge of the subject.
Technology review
The report covers the complete LNG chain including liquefaction and regasification processes, LNG transportation and containment systems.
Market prospects
The report identifies trends and expenditure by region and thoroughly discusses on a country-by-country basis the current and future prospects for the LNG plants, carriers, and terminals over the period to 2014.
Using the same in-depth modelling process that is adopted for other reports in this series, The World LNG Market Report presents a five-year market forecast for activity in the sector over 2010-2014, with the timing of expenditure phased to reflect likely project structure.
It includes a series of charts and tables (with five years of historic data) showing the market expenditures in US dollar values over the period, segmented by facility type, region and component.
