Report summary
Oil prices have plummeted. This is a second punch to the gut for LNG prices, after corona-virus sent LNG spot prices through the floor. 2020 was meant to be a significant year for Australian LNG with three projects – Crux, Scarborough and Barossa – moving towards FID. But right now, operators globally must bolster their balance sheets to survive a prolonged low oil price. Delaying discretionary spend and preserving short-term cash flow is the priority. The ability to fund and willingness to undertake new capital-intensive projects is under scrutiny. Will Woodside and Santos sanction the Scarborough and Barossa projects? Or are delays inevitable?
