Event Overview

A broad range of factors including the shale gas revolution in the US, energy security in Europe, environmental considerations in China, and the Fukushima disaster in Japan have driven recent developments in LNG markets, including a continued growth in both the global LNG liquefaction and regasification capacity as well as the global LNG fleet. This presentation will review current developments in the LNG value chain and discuss the evolving global infrastructure, enabling technologies, and the gradual increase in destination flexibility in a market that is otherwise dominated by long term contracts.

Join us on Wednesday, 20 November from 15:00 to 16:00 CET (9:00 - 10:00 am EST).
