Numéro : 68

Auteurs : SATTAR J.

Résumé

In the LNG business there is an unseen, less understood, parallel world layered on top of the physical world of cargo movements. This is the world of energy derivatives.
Derivatives enable companies to achieve a measure of revenue certainty. Derivatives act as ashock absorber for corporate earnings, because they translate a floating price exposure into a fixed price exposure.
The conceptual basis for a derivatives contract is that it is an exchange of risk between two parties with opposing price views.
Using derivatives contracts is not speculation when you have an underlying physical position – it’s sensible risk management.
Futures and options are standardised exchange traded derivatives which are used by LNG industry participants.
