Surging LNG demand in the Pacific Basin has rocked global market dynamics, sending Asian prices soaring and driving global price spreads. Increased gas consumption in the wake up Japan’s nuclear disaster is increasing demand from the world’s largest, most mature LNG market, while a wave of demand from emerging and new markets like China, India and Thailand is being accelerated by economic growth. The result is unprecedented cargo diversions and re-exports, the results of which are being felt worldwide.
