LNG Market Insights for Asia

Charting the Course: LNG Market Dynamics Unveiled

Energy security has replaced energy transition as the most highly desired energy goal in 2024. Yet, regardless of all headwinds, 2023 was a banner year for LNG trade and indeed LNG was everywhere in the spotlight in helping bring energy to all corners of the globe.

With that in mind, we invite you to join us for a special in-person LNG Seminar at the Conrad Centennial Singapore, where we bring industry experts to discuss the latest trends, market dynamics, and strategic insights.

This seminar will feature an in-depth review of the global gas and LNG market as it exists today and how it is likely to evolve into the future.  Participants will learn tools to help them understand the state of the market and to quantify the effects that market growth and risks can have on it in both the near and long term.

LNG imports also increased by nearly 8 million tons.

It is expected that China’s GDP growth rate will be around 5% in 2024, and natural gas consumption will steadily increase. LNG imports will continue to sustain rapid growth If international prices do not fluctuate significantly,
