The world has vast quantities of natural gas reserves, but most of them are located far from where the gas is most needed. In natural gas liquefaction plants, gas is cooled and its volume is reduced by a factor of 600 at a temperature of -162°C. This enables LNG carrier ships to transport economic volumes of LNG across oceans to regasification terminals. At the receiving or import terminals the LNG cargo is either turned from liquid to gas and fed through gas pipelines to the gas grid, or is stored as LNG in super cooled tanks. This chain of operations allows for facilitated international trade of natural gas, the fastest growing fossil fuel.

The liquefied natural gas market is defined as capital investment in the infrastructure that is required for the production of LNG, its transportation and its regasification. Visiongain has determined that the value of the global investment in infrastructure for liquefied natural gas in 2012 will reach $35.8bn.

By the early 1960s the world had not yet seen any significant commercial trade in liquefied natural gas, but by the end of that decade commercial trade in LNG began to enable Japan to import gas through LNG. Since then, many countries have built LNG export or LNG import terminals and trade in LNG ballooned to over 100mtpa by the year 2000. The world currently has substantial capacity to export LNG. The construction projects and plans for further capacity increase for LNG terminals across the globe imply that worldwide capacity for LNG production and trade will be increasing throughout the forecast period.

Capacity additions to all major national LNG import and export markets will drive growth in the LNG market. Over the forecast period of this report, many countries will see numerous new LNG production plants come on-stream, allowing those countries to exploit their natural gas reservoirs for export earnings. On the other hand, LNG regasification and storage terminals will enable countries or regions with limited access to natural gas resources to supplement their gas supplies as gas is currently the most efficient and effective form of electric power production and it is widely used for heating. Naturally an increasing number of LNG carriers will be required in order to allow LNG trade to grow.

The report contains 156 tables, charts and graphs that add visual analysis in order to explain developing trends within the liquefied natural gas market. Visiongain provides forecasts for the period 2012-2022 in terms of investment value (US$) for the global liquefied natural gas market, as well as for 3 submarkets; liquefaction, regasification and LNG carriers. In addition, 7 regional liquefied natural gas (LNG) markets are forecast and analysed by Visiongain over the period 2012-2022.
