Analysis and Forecast to 2024 Gas 2019 Analysis and Forecast to 2024 Gas Market Report 2019 Foreword Gas 2019 Analysis and forecast to 2024 Gas 2019 Analysis and forecast to 2024 Gas Market Report 2019 Foreword Foreword In 2018, natural gas played a major role in a remarkable year for energy. Global energy consumption rose at its fastest pace this decade, with natural gas accounting for 45% of the increase, more than any other fuel. Natural gas helped to reduce air pollution and limit the rise in energy-related CO2 emissions by displacing coal and oil in power generation, heating and industrial uses. The global gas narrative varies across regions: cheap and abundant resources in North America; a key contributor to reducing air pollution in the People’s Republic of China; a main feedstock and fuel for industry in emerging Asia; challenged by renewables in Europe; an emerging fuel in Africa and South America. What ties these together is the central position of gas in the global energy mix as one of the key enablers of the energy transition. Natural gas can be part of the solution to a cleaner energy path – both on land and at sea as an alternative marine fuel – but it faces its own challenges. They include ensuring price competitiveness in developing economies, guaranteeing security of supply in increasingly interdependent markets, and continuing the reduction of its environmental footprint, particularly in terms of methane emissions. Natural gas is at the heart of three core areas for the IEA: energy security, clean energy and opening to emerging economies. I hope that this latest edition of the IEA’s outlook for gas markets will help enhance market transparency and enable stakeholders to better understand current and future developments. This is particularly important for the IEA, which has seen the ranks of its member and association countries grow in recent years to include the world’s largest emerging economies. Last year, we welcomed Mexico and South Africa. The expanding IEA family accounted for almost 70% of global gas consumption growth in 2018. This global footprint underscores the IEA’s ability to help shape energy policies for a more secure and sustainable energy future for all.

  • New Minimum Capital for Commercial Companies
    CHEVRON AND YPF ANNOUNCED THEIR INTENTIONS TO DISCUSS A STRATEGIC ALLIANCE FOR THE EXPLORATION OF SHALE RESOURCES IN ARGENTINA Argentina's state-controlled oil company is holding important meetings with California-based Chevron Corp. to share strategies for developing the world's third-largest unconventional oil and gas reserves. YPF CEO Miguel Galuccio is calling his talks with Chevron's Latin America chief Ali Moshiri the first step toward a strategic alliance with Chevron, Latin America's leading private energy investor. He says YPF needs partners with Chevron's power and experience to develop Argentina's shale reserves, which trail only the U.S. and China in potential. The encounter between the two executives did not lead to any specific investment news, but sets the stage for Galuccio's formal presentation next Thursday August 30 of a five-year plan for the company Argentina expropriated from Spain's Grupo Repsol. YPF said Mr Moshiri had expressed interest “in associating with YPF on an unconventional cluster … in Vaca Muerta” and the talks with Chevron were “the first concrete step towards an alliance that will be strategic along the path that YPF’s president and CEO is leading”. Chevron said it would not comment “on any confidential discussions we hold with officials”. Mr Galuccio in June unveiled a taster of his five-year strategic plan that called for investment of $7bn a year to reverse falling production. Partnerships will be key to funding what he called the “ambitious but realistic” plan, which includes drilling 1,000 wells. Argentina is believed to be home to the world’s third-biggest reserves of unconventional oil and gas, largely in the Vaca Muerta formation in the western province of Neuquén.

As the majority of traded gas will be LNG, the key question is therefore whether the cost of developing new liquefaction projects can be low enough to allow the gas to be competitive when it reaches the end consumer.

  • Natural Gas the Composition of Natural Gas Is 95% Methane, Almost
    Natural gas The composition of natural gas is 95% methane, almost 4% ethane and nitrogen, and 1% carbon dioxide and propane. It is produced by the natural transformation of organic materials over millions of years. Methane: the simplest hydrocarbon Methane gas belongs to the hydrocarbon family. A hydrocarbon is an organic composition that contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms. With just one carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms, methane (CH4) is the simplest hydrocarbon. Some other hydrocarbons are: propane (C3H8), ethane (C2H6) and butane (C4H10). Benefits of Natural Gas Natural gas is increasingly the fuel of choice in today's homes. Below are the top reasons to choose natural gas for your home. 1 | Affordability Natural gas costs less to use in your home than electricity, heating oil, propane or kerosene. On average, electricity costs almost four times more than natural gas. 2 | Convenience and reliability Natural gas is piped directly into your home. It's always there when you need it, and you never have to worry about running out of fuel or arranging for deliveries. 3 | Comfort Natural gas heat feels warmer than heat produced by an electric heat pump. 4 | Domestic supply Nearly 100% of the natural gas consumed in the U.S. is produced in North America with 90% coming directly from the U.S. 5 | Environmental impact Simply put - natural gas is the cleanest-burning energy source for your home. The combustion of natural gas emits 45% less carbon dioxide than coal. 6 | Energy efficiency Natural gas is highly efficient. About 90% of the natural gas produced is delivered to customers as useful energy.
