Global LNG market turns to commercial talks between buyers and sellers

摘要

Investors’ appetite for risk is being closely watched by the LNG market as liquefaction growth will depend in part on the developers’ ability to secure financing for construction of new terminals. And that means signing offtake contracts. As Gastech opened September 17 in Spain, commercial talks between buyers and sellers was top of mind for the several thousand attendees at the conference and exhibition. To be relevant in the market conversation, project proponents are being pushed to show viability sooner rather than later.
