Report summary
Many countries in Asia-Pacific are struggling to attract the required investment and international oil company (IOC) interest has been muted in recent licensing rounds. Value creation from gas investment is primarily a function of geological prospectivity together with finding and development costs. But government policy on gas pricing, fiscal terms, domestic market obligations (DMO) and state equity also have a significant impact on investment decisions. In this insight, we analyse the impact of each of the parameters on overall gas investment attractiveness in the region.
