  • For Global LNG in Europe: Understanding the Complexity of Access Rules for EU Import Terminals

ISBN 978-1-78467-155-6 DOI: https://doi.org/10.26889/9781784671556 i Preface The importance and relevance of LNG for European gas balances has increased substantially in the late 2010s after several years of relatively low import levels and under-utilised regasification capacity. For some this was simply a question of the most efficient means to acquire competitive gas supplies through existing infrastructure, while others built new regasification terminals for supply diversification and security. In 2019, European LNG imports increased by more than 40% compared with the previous year and the main question for exporters had changed from whether the EU would be willing and able to compete with (principally) Asian countries for global supply, to whether they would be able to find a home for their cargoes in an over-supplied market. As the EU is the only major gas market with third party access to LNG terminals, this means that exporters can always place a cargo for which no other market can be accessed unless the owner of the terminal or the buyer agrees.

  • Uncertainty and Disruptions Associated with the Covid-19 Outbreak in China Continue to Dog the Global LNG Markets
    Uncertainty and disruptions associated with the Covid-19 outbreak in China continue to dog the global LNG markets. Globally, spot LNG prices remain low as the markets work through significant disruptions of cargoes that are scheduled to go to China through March and beyond. Faced with indications that additional declarations of force majeure could come from PetroChina and other importers, suppliers including Total, Shell and Qatargas have rejected the force majeure notices they previously received from CNOOC on the grounds that high storage levels and slack demand are not force majeure events. PetroChina has received force majeure notices from its downstream customers and has warned suppliers it may have to do the same. At the same time, buyers and sellers are working to avoid significant commercial disputes when possible. CNOOC eventually received Total’s Energy Confidence, on which that it had originally sought to invoke force majeure, at the Tianjin terminal on Feb. 7. Sources say that the two parties have come to an understanding under which CNOOC took the cargo in return for Total deferring other cargoes. Total has found other buyers in its portfolio to take at least some of these cargoes. Qatargas, which received force majeure notices from CNOOC, continues to negotiate with its Chinese clients. CNOOC had previously failed to lift some of the volumes under its 2 MMt/y contract with Qatargas, but they eventually agreed on a deferment schedule and terms. PetroChina is said to have asked Qatargas to defer prompt cargoes under two contracts. Sinopec is said to have already agreed with ExxonMobil to adjust delivery of prompt cargoes under its Papua New Guinea LNG contracts.
