Report summary
The year 2025 marked the onset of a new wave of LNG supply growth, with nearly 23 Mt of supply additions through the commissioning and ramp up of new projects. However, despite robust supply additions, regional spot LNG prices remained elevated enough to curtail spot buying from China and emerging markets in Asia. The coming year will see the global gas market transition away from years of tightness to a period of increased LNG supply. This shift will reshape the dynamics across Asian LNG markets, from prices to policy, with new discoveries playing a significant role. This report examines five key developments set to define the sector in 2026.
