Type of article: Article

Summary

The article underlines the basic difference between the liquefied-natural-gas sector and other energy-related industries: for LNG it is not possible to disassociate investments in production from those in transport and use. From the initial planning stage, an LNG venture must involve governmental authorities of the producer and consumer countries, technical experts (in research, assessment of reserves and evaluation of costs and investments), financial institutions (both public and private), ship operators, consumers, etc. All these actors must form a cohesive group, to develop a project that is economically viable over a period of 25 to 30 years.
