Asia Pacific

Opportunities

Demand for gas in Asia Pacific region expected to

double by 2040

Forecast to become the largest gas consuming

region by 2030

New markets, new buyers and new demand

segments for LNG are emerging

A more liquid and more responsive global LNG

trade will make gas more attractive

But gas demand growth in Asia should not be taken

for granted …..

Challenges

Demand uncertainty a common theme across Asia

as the energy transition and market liberalisations

gather pace

Regional import dependency forecast to increase

from 23% in 2015 to 39% in 2040

Although barriers to entry for LNG are reducing

some new markets will require help with the

commercial or technical aspects of LNG

Coal likely to remain cheap – and tempting

Gas needs to remain affordable, reliable and secure
