Lng Supply : A Global Gas Supply, Demand, And Pricing

Unlike Brent, North American crude production is up amid a "shale oil revolution." To capture this fact, we use two variables published by the EIA. The first, CANADA, is the weekly amount of Canadian crude imported into the Petroleum Administration for Defense's Midwestern District ("PADD 2") where Cushing is located. The second, RIGS, is a monthly count of rotary rigs operating onand off-shore in the 50 United States. Both series increase steadily over most of our sample period, accelerating sharply from 2009 (RIGS) or 2011 (CANADA). Both variables should be inversely related to the spread: ceteris paribus, more North American supply should push down WTI's price—especially if the oil faces difficulties reaching international markets.

Natural gas is a rapidly growing section of the economy. With a recent boom in production, more people are putting a focus on the resource. Although it has been around for centuries, it is relatively new in terms of mass production and shipment, especially in mainstream American attention. 2008 saw a rapid growth in both production and price, which expanded the economy in many small towns throughout the United States. But, only a few years later, the price dropped while production did not, and the decline started. Now, natural gas production is in a state of surplus, with some reports stating that prices will remain low. But, with the push towards diversified energy portfolios and renewables, the test is to see if natural gas can

The past decade has been characterized by a high degree of volatility in global oil prices, beginning with a significant increase in 1999 that continued to accelerate until 2003, reaching an unprecedented pricing level of $145 a barrel in July 2008 (Ono, 2011). The Great Recession appears to have stunted this acceleration in oil prices, though, at least in part and

Recent spike in US and Canada shale gas production have reduced the prices in the region to historical minimum of less than $4/MMBtu, a half of the price for Europe and five times less the price for China or Japan. This difference in prices has raised huge interest to export of LNG from USA to Asian market. Out of country’s total 11 LNG

The petroleum industry is well on its way to becoming a global business. Major international firms like EXXON Mobil, Shell, BP, and CNPC are getting even larger and account for an even more significant market share of the global petroleum business, which is estimated at 95.34 production and 93.30 consumption million barrels per day in 2015. Most of these major suppliers are now also managing their petroleum business on a global basis. Clearly, some regions will enjoy significant growth while others will decline. From a volumetric standpoint, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to continue to show the most robust growth. Scientific research has shown that 0.4 % of gross domestic product could be saved in terms of energy in Western industrialized countries if current tribological

To date gas markets have been regional in character. Is LNG likely to alter this?

In just the last 18 months imports rose dramatically, market prices for many commodities fell abruptly, the energy market declined substantially, steel pricing came under severe pressure due to imports, the automotive market experienced a record year, and three flat rolled carbon steel trade cases were filed.

The sporadic nature of oil prices has over the years posed as a great deal of concern to economists, investors, financiers, consumers, analysts and other relevant stakeholders. In a perfect market, the price of a commodity is an indication of the present circumstances as well as future signals that could impact demand and supply. Ordinarily, we expect prices of commodities to move in response to changes that affect demand and supply at a relatively ‘normal’ rate. When prices change drastically within a short period and consistently over time, then such market is fraught with high volatility – a typical case of the crude oil market.

to export LNG the European Union, specifically Germany, as a way to replace Russian natural gas in a time of crisis? If so, would either party need to build out infrastructure to accommodate U.S. LNG exports? What effect would U.S. LNG exports have on global natural gas supplies and prices?

However the curve had included some unsure demand forecast First will be Greece’s ongoing which make their macro-economic weaken but also reduce their oil product demand. In the other hand, Iran is a potential sanction of nuclear deal. These two reasons definitely will become great issues that reduce oil demand in the future (Ellyatt 2015). Both countries consider high oil consumption countries so there is a need to settle and solve their internal country issue in order to increase oil demand.

Ample supply is keeping downward pressure on fossil fuel prices, coal, oil and natural gas. When and how will market dynamics change – or might lower prices for some fuels be here to stay?

The price of natural gas and oil have fluctuated widely because of some factors without Total control, these factor are: Supply and demand for global regional and economic and political development in the global and regional resources producing regions, especially In the Middle East, Africa and South America also the ability of OPEC and producing countries to control and influence the level of production and prices and other thing which is effect on the price which is the cost and availability of new technology also the price of non-conventional energy and economic condition and the global financial market and the last one is changes in demographics, including population growth rate, and consumer preferences. Significant reductions in prices or extend the oil and natural gas, which would adversely affect the results reducing their profit for the year 2014.

Over the last years, the oil industry practiced its deepest recession since 1990s. That being said, the recovery for this industry finally starts getting better. The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries approved to change the production last year, 2016. This arrangement has been holding over to this year, with oil prices increasing for the past several months. But in recent weeks, United States records have been found greater oil prices have been faded. Experts think it will be years before oil returns $100 a barrel, a price that was regular till late 2014. But after the oil price recovered from below $30 in early 2016 to over $50 by the end of the year, there was increasing certainty in the industry that crude oil could rise

The data collected factors that the authors thought would contribute to the price of oil. All 14 OPEC members monthly oil production is found on the US. Energy Information Administration. The United States of America monthly production is found on the U.S. Energy Information Administration. Data also collected on the prices of commodities including Gold, Coal, and Oil. This is collected from the Federal Reserve of Economic Data. The price of the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Trade Weight United States of America Dollar Index: Broad also collected from the Federal Reserve of Economic Data.

According to BP Energy Outlook, by 2035 overall energy production in Asia pacific will increase by 52% while energy consumption increase by 60% which cause net energy import rise by 88%. With the escalating environmental issue and slow development of renewable energy, development of gas fields in the region is important. However, this will be challenging as many of the fields in the region are associated with high content of CO2 (15% - 80%). The FIGURE shows the location of the fields (Burgers, et al. 2011). Among them, there are East Natuna Field (40 TCF methane; 71% CO2), K5 Field (13.2 TCF; 70% CO2), and Kuala Langsa (10 TCF; 80% CO2). At present time, development of those fields becomes the priority of Indonesia’s and Malaysia’s governments to meet the forthcoming increase of domestic gas demand (FIGURE) and maintain their export to the regional market especially China, Japan, and South Korea. FIGURE shows the projection of regional gas demand and FIGURE shows LNG export destination from both countries.
