Is now the time for LNG to take off in Vietnam? • PetroVietnam inks a binding HOA with PETRONAS for additional volumes from PM3 CAA and other nearby fields to feed gas-short Southwest Vietnam • Eni strikes gas in Central Vietnam and the development of Sao Vang/Dai Ngyuet sees progress • Gas price reform proposed in the power sector, although we anticipate delays in implementation
