Commodity Market Report
Global short-term LNG demand tracker (Q3 2021)
Report summary
APAC continues to drive global demand growth through to 2023, with a temporary loosening of the market next year. European tightness continues: Earlier this month Gazprom indicated that about 5.6 bcm of gas could flow through Nord Stream 2 this year, which in principle should relax the tightness in the European market. But there is a caveat – the targeted 5.6 bcm are likely to be partly substituting for current underutilization of existing routes, as there are concerns over Russian supply availability caused by Gazprom’s low storage levels and supply disruptions. Additionally, European gas inventory levels are significantly below their five-year range and will stay below the five-year range at the end of the injection season. This means that either a cold snap or piped supply disruptions would force Europe to compete with Asia for LNG cargoes.
