Varifrån kommer LNG gas?

LNG är färglös, giftfri och luktfri. LNG produceras i bland annat Asien, Mellanöstern och Norge. Därifrån skeppas den med stora tankfartyg till importterminaler i till exempel Nederländerna, England och Spanien. Där lastas den om till mindre fartyg som passar en mottagningsterminal.

What will happen to LNG production after the Freeport blast?

The Freeport blast could deal a blow to that stopgap solution, particularly if the facility fails to come back online soon. “Despite the initial estimate of three weeks of downtime by the operator, the production impact is likely to stretch into July,” Felix Booth, head of LNG at Vortexa, told CNN Business.

What does the Freeport LNG fire mean for Europe?

A fire at one of the world’s biggest suppliers of liquefied natural gas has thrown Europe’s fragile energy security into doubt and spooked global gas markets. Freeport LNG, a liquefied natural gas (LNG) producer in Texas, will shut its doors for at least three weeks, the company confirmed to CNN Business.

Is disruption the last LNG source Europe needs?

Disruption to Europe’s biggest source of LNG — the United States made up 45% of its imports in May and April, Vortexa data shows — is the last thing the continent needs right now.

Which countries will be priced out of the LNG market?

LNG prices are expected to soar, with economies in Asia, such as India, Pakistan and Bangladesh, the most likely to be priced out of the market. These countries could ramp up their use of coal and oil as a result, Rystad Energy predicts.
