Description

The world changed in 2020. An outbreak of Covid-19 turned into a worldwide pandemic followed by the Russian invasion of Ukraine just two years later. Two black swan events in the span of 24 months. LNG: After the Pandemic dives into the lessons learned from this unprecedented combination of events. Numerous trends are covered including volatile prices, the post-pandemic slump, increasing exports, the jump in European demand, and the pressures of decarbonization. This book considers the implications of these trends and sets the stage by looking at the fundamental changes in the industry that have occurred over the past decade. This new LNG landscape may help us discern where the industry's future lies. Despite the rhetoric, LNG is here to stay.

What the industry is saying

This book could not be more timely. Accessible, absorbing, and informative, it is a must-read for anyone interested not just in LNG, but global energy, geopolitics, and the energy transition. Tusiani and Shearer peel back the layers of a rapidly evolving industry in a way that is useful to policy makers and industry insiders alike. - Jason Bordoff, Founding Director, Center on Global Energy Policy at Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs.

LNG has taken center stage during the Ukrainian crisis. This book will help the reader, whether an industry professional, policy maker or interested lay person understand the role LNG plays in the world's energy supply. A quick and comprehensive read. - Christopher J. Wiernicki, Chairman, President and CEO, American Bureau of Shipping (ABS)
