Subject Pakistan's LNG imports and natural gas supply. Significance Pakistan in July claimed it could become one of the top five purchasers of liquefied natural gas (LNG) by 2022. The country is looking to address growing gas demand and reduce capital outflows for fuel oil and diesel imports; regasification facilities are required to convert LNG back to natural gas at atmospheric pressure. Impacts Fewer power shortages would decrease protests, especially prevalent in summer months, over blackouts. Pakistan’s natural gas vehicle sector could see a rejuvenation, curbing gasoline and diesel demand. Increased LNG use in domestic fertiliser production will reduce urea imports.

Significance Sonatrach is preparing to renegotiate most of its long-term contracts to supply natural gas by pipeline and as liquefied natural gas (LNG), as their expiry dates approach in 2019 and 2020. Ould Kaddour, who was appointed Sonatrach’s chief executive one year ago after a period of turbulence within Sonatrach, has made clear that he appreciates the need for a flexible approach in an intensely competitive market. Impacts Algeria’s hydrocarbons production is declining, but global demand for LNG in particular is rising fast. Securing new natural gas supply contracts will be vital for Algeria’s revenue prospects. Ould Kaddour’s efforts to foster better relations with international companies could be rewarded by increased investment.

Subject South Asia's gas use outlook. Significance Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is to assume much greater importance in the South Asian energy mix, aiding the control of greenhouse gas emissions growth, but creating new import dependencies. Impacts The development of LNG import infrastructure will reduce the focus on regional pipelines. Improved gas supply will boost industry, power generation and gas use in transportation. South Asia’s gas imports will rise.

Russian gas supply to EU will intertwine with politics

Significance Worries over supply shortages persist despite President Vladimir Putin's promise to increase deliveries. Russian output is close to the limit of current capacity and domestic demand is rising. European claims that Russia is withholding gas for political ends are linked to fears of conflict in Ukraine and controversy over the Nord Stream 2 pipeline. Impacts If gas shortages persist, Germany may approve limited flows through Nord Stream 2 before the pipeline is certified. Higher gas prices are a boost not only for Gazprom but also Novatek, Russia's largest liquefied natural gas exporter. Oil giant Rosneft may realise its long-held ambition to break Gazprom's monopoly on gas exports. Pipeline gas sales to China will remain uncorrelated with European market developments.

Significance Gazprom faced unprecedented disruptions in 2020: a mild European winter in 2019-20, the slump in demand stemming from COVID-19 impacts, and competition from liquefied natural gas (LNG) which depressed European gas prices. Declining sales undermined Gazprom's share in the European market and resulted in a USD3bn loss over nine months. Impacts Gazprom will use its own trading platform and spot trading in European gas hubs to supplement contract sales in times of volatility. Policymakers plan to establish a mechanism to ensure that Russian LNG deliveries to Europe do not compete with pipeline exports. Gazprom's domestic agenda will be dominated by government instructions to accelerate gas supply provision to under-served regions.

Significance The Asian spot price for liquefied natural gas (LNG) set records in late 2020 and again in October 2021, equivalent to USD325 per barrel of oil equivalent, with European gas prices some 30% lower. Gas prices will greatly influence living standards and economic prospects in 2022-23. Impacts The global gas market will be tight into 2022, but the scale of price rises depends on weather, Russian strategy and the economic situation. The market will turn back to oversupply, probably after 2023, assuming recent LNG projects stay on schedule. Gas companies are increasingly paying attention to decarbonisation and hydrogen, but this will not have a major direct impact in 2022-23.

The Cost

Significance The cost of gas-fired generation sets the electricity price in much of Europe today. Falling indigenous production has left Europe reliant on gas imports and exposed it to global liquefied natural gas (LNG) prices set by fast-recovering China. This has left retail-only electricity suppliers vulnerable and increases the risk that falling disposable incomes will undermine post-pandemic recovery. Impacts EU carbon allowance prices will stay strong. Higher energy prices will stoke inflation amid a fragile recovery, posing a dilemma for central banks. Rising gas prices have had ancillary but potentially alarming impacts as some fertiliser and CO2 producers have shut in production.
