The Insider’s Guide to Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Prices: Index, Trend, and Forecast

Despite increasing domestic natural gas production, India remains reliant on LNG imports due to rising consumption in the fertilizer and city gas distribution sectors. Spot prices were initially high and volatile in early 2023 but started to decline later. Asian LNG demand has lagged, but the region’s import capacity is gradually growing due to investments in infrastructure. Many nations like China are entering the market with rapid regasification capacity growth. India is committed to increasing gas in its energy mix, leading to potential growth in Asian LNG demand, which is shifting towards price-sensitive countries.

Definition

LNG stands for Liquefied Natural Gas. It is a natural gas that has been converted into a liquid form by cooling it to extremely low temperatures (around -162 degrees Celsius or -260 degrees Fahrenheit). This liquefaction process reduces the volume of natural gas, making it more practical and cost-effective to transport and store. LNG is predominantly composed of methane and is used as a cleaner-burning fuel in various applications, including electricity generation, heating, transportation, and industrial processes. It plays a crucial role in the global energy market as a versatile and eco-friendly energy source.
