LNG imports grew in 2022 despite record prices in the spot LNG market, driven by strong gas demand and a decline in domestic production. LNG demand expected to stay strong until 2024 when the Erawan field is expected to ramp up production. However, demand growth will continue in the long-term as other fields start to decline. The start of Map Ta Phut 2 means there is sufficient regas capacity to meet demand growth. However, emerging players buyers have not yet started self-procuring LNG as PTT's blended price remain competitive against global spot prices. This report presents Wood Mackenzie's view of Thailand's LNG market. Understand the key risks and opportunities in Thailand's LNG market with our latest supply-demand balance analysis, views on key infrastructure developments, and latest trends in LNG trade.
