The impact of Russia's gas export strategy on US LNG
Report summary
With European LNG imports, including from the US, set to grow over the next 5 years, there is much speculation about Russia’s likely response. Will Russia’s gas strategy mimic that of Saudi Arabia’s oil strategy, will it seek to retain market share in Europe, pushing European gas prices to levels that force the shut-in of US LNG exports? Using Wood Mackenzie’s Global Gas Model, we have analysed the key factors that will influence US LNG export utilisation, including Russia’s export strategy.
