Market Outlook

Natural gas is one of the most sought-after trade commodities in the energy market, mainly due to exploitation of cleaner and sustainable energy sources. The most common transportation method for natural gas imports is either through designated pipelines in its gaseous state or carried in its liquefied state as Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) by specialized tankers. The analysis and comparison of natural gas import by pipelines and FSRU (Floating Storage and Regasification Unit) terminals is presented in this paper. Pipeline import is currently the cheapest and most feasible option, but it requires significant infrastructural investments, which can affect imports in countries where production is far from the delivery, so alternatively vessels and import terminals are necessary to ensure natural gas imports and energy supply stability. This paper analyses the technology and current market outlook of both natural gas import methods.

Recent energy market trends have opened the opportunity to exploit Australian liquefied natural gas (LNG) as a cost-competitive fuel source for power projects in developing markets. Regrettably, having favourable market conditions does not automatically lend itself to projects getting sanctioned and being successful. It is fair to say that the number of projects up and running in the current market is less than expected. This paper aims to explore some of the key reasons why LNG to power projects fail to become a reality and what Australian LNG producers could do to achieve their ambition of creating new markets to sell their LNG into. The paper concludes by outlining several development approaches that are being used in industry and how Australian LNG suppliers can partake in these approaches by standing out from the crowd, framing the opportunity, aligning agreements to the capability of the technology and understanding scale and industrial ecologies.

The changes in the sphere of the main energy sources in the world and in individual countries were highlighted; the prospects for Russian energy carriers in the global hydrocarbon market were identified. The demand for an energy carrier whose use in Germany is planned to be discontinued (coal) and the demand and competition for natural gas - Russian energy carrier that remains competitive in the conditions of “green” energy were analyzed. The Russian opportunity to save the energy supply market on the background of the new energy order are considered.

Storage tanks are widely used in the oil refinery and petrochemical industry in storing a multitude of different products ranging from gases, liquids, solids, and mixtures. Design and safety concerns have become a priority due to tank failures causing environment pollution as well as fires and explosions, which can result in injuries and fatalities. The chapter illustrates different types of crude oil and oil product storage tanks as well as the risks regarding the storage itself. Considering that the natural gas, in its gaseous state, is stored in underground storages like oil and gas depleted reservoirs, aquifers or salt caverns, and there are numerous publications and books covering the subject in detail, this chapter only illustrates the storage of liquefied natural gas and the risks posed by its storage.

Abstract: Global energy crisis has been on the increase due to increase on energy demand driven by population growth. In attempting to address the global energy crisis, this work uses the alternative resources to diversify the conventional energy sources in order to supplement the available energy generating sources. Energy resources are being evaluated to supplement the conventional energy sources thereby boosting the total energy generation in a nation. Technical and economic models are developed and used to evaluate the energy values in natural gas fractionation. Natural gas fractions evaluated include liquefied natural gas (LNG), liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and condensate (liquid fuel). Collated field data are inputted into the developed economic models to estimate feasible technical and economic values in each of the gas fractions. The technical and economic analysis revealed that bulk natural gas contains 85.76% liquefied natural gas, 11.61% liquefied petroleum gas and 2.28% condensate (liquid). The result also revealed that natural gas fractionation improves its economic and energy values. With this, it is clear that the improvement in natural gas energy sources has the potency to supplement, hydro-electric power source, coal power source, oil and/or diesel fuel power sources.

Cross Price Elasticity

In this paper, five different energy of cross price elasticity were calculated, the substitutional relation between different energy sources in China were discussed. The status of natural gas in energy market was analysed. The results show that only LNG take a role of complements to natural gas, while electricity, gasoline, diesel oil and coal have alternative relations with natural gas. Besides,electricity has the strongest ability to substitute natural gas. Conversely, if it is possible for natural gas to replace other energy sources , LNG will be the best substitute and be followed by gasoline,diesel oil,and power. And the natural gas has the weakest ability to substitute coal in China.

In the current discussion about alternative energy supply and strategies in Europe, LNG comes to the fore. For the implementation of LNG in Central Europe, there are many hurdles to be overcome. With the “LNG Masterplan Rhine-Main-Danube”, a first step is being made to overcome these barriers. Within this Masterplan, a Framework and Market Analysis was conducted. Therefore, extensive literature research was carried out in a first step, to have a detailed analysis and assessment of the developments for the implementation and applications of LNG. The results of this paper should not only point to the problem areas, but to the potentials for LNG as well and make a significant contribution for further implementation steps.

Liquefaction Process

Natural gas is one of the most important primary energy sources. It is expected to account for about 30% of total electricity generation by 2020 compared with 17% in 2000. Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is expected to have a large share in this expansion of use of natural gas. In the last years the total cost of LNG technology has decreased mainly due to improvements in the liquefaction process. The paper discusses some novel, gas-turbine-based concepts for combining LNG regasification with electricity generation. A comparative exergetic evaluation of the concepts is presented.
