Currently There Are 14 Importers Of LNG, But This is Expected to Increase to 35 by 2015.

DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c30494) has announced the addition of Global LNG Market Worldwide (2005-2015) to their offering.

The world LNG market has seen a lot of growth, especially in the regions undergoing economic development. A market research report, "Global LNG market Worldwide (2005-2015)" has brought out a detailed picture of the world LNG scenario. It gives an in-depth analysis of the trends and behavior of the world LNG market.

According to the research report, the LNG market has shown a tremendous growth worldwide. About one to 40 LNG projects exist or are in the pipeline in every country. This goes well with the demand and supply statistics, the sooner the projects will get over, the better the supply/capacity of LNG will become.

As per the market research report, the delays that are taking place in the liquefaction projects are affecting the market share for LNG. A better pace will lead to reduction in the LNG prices. If the gestation gap compresses, the LNG market economics can be balanced very well. A boom in the production and consumption of LNG was seen in the year 2005. The global liquefaction capacity for LNG was 150MTPA in 18 plants spanning 13 countries.

A calculation reveals that there were 14 importers of LNG in 2005. According to experts, the LNG market is expected to increase with a number of 35 importers joining the race by 2015. The world LNG market will double its size with countries like Taiwan, Japan and Korea, and other Asian countries becoming prominent in the demand and supply for the fuel. The reason attributed to the growth of LNG worldwide is the need for electricity produced by environmentally friendly fuel. Domestic natural gas resources have added to the demand. Most of the gas consuming countries stress on commercialization of their resources.

The market research report sums up world demand and consumption for LNG. The international trade and business outlook including the financial and geopolitical factors are included. The volume, prices, contractual agreements are analyzed along with a discussion on ongoing projects in the sector. Projections for 2005, 2010 and 2015, are made assuming alternative economic growth rates. The overall dynamics for Global LNG market Worldwide (2005-2015) are presented in the report.
