Green hydrogen has grabbed the limelight in the drive to decarbonise. But is there a role for natural gas in a post-coronavirus Europe?
Global gas demand has proved resilient despite widespread coronavirus lockdowns - but supply dynamics are more challenging. Will gas and LNG demand continue to recover? And what forces will shape the market over the next two decades?
Bold assumptions, but not unrealistic. But what would happen with a second wave of prolonged, nationwide lockdowns? What would this mean for economic activity? How will oil and gas supply and prices be affected? Will Asia’s demand-led recovery be blown off course?
The regasification sector is in a strong position despite the short-term hit from Covid-19. Investment in further capacity is increasing, driven by the likelihood of robust long-term LNG demand growth.
With declining production from the joint venture’s fields, the NWS may be forced to reduce exports unless new gas is secured.
The Lingshui deepwater gas cluster is in the Qiongdongnan basin. Lingshui 17-2 is CNOOC's first fully operated and 100% owned deepwater project. It is China's second deepwater project after the Liwan, which was jointly developed by CNOOC and Husky in 2014. CNOOC sanctioned Lingshui 17-2 in Q1 2018 and brought it online in June 2021.
2025 saw shifting dynamics in global carbon policy. Momentum switched from transition optimism to policy pragmatism as governments balanced climate commitments with inflation, energy security, and social concerns. Meanwhile, countries’ headline climate commitments – nationally determined contributions – arrived late with limited ambition: only 13 countries met the February deadline for submission.
The UK's 32nd Offshore Licensing Round can be considered a success, but what is the future of licensing in the UK North Sea?
Current low gas prices are supporting demand growth in the sector and encouraging pro-gas policies and infrastructure developments
In an uncertain and volatile world, having upstream assets that can cope with both the highs and lows of oil prices is a priority
Halting the pandemic and rebuilding economies are the most urgent goals for the immediate future. Wood Mackenzie estimates that almost US$20 trillion – equivalent to a quarter of global GDP – will go towards stimulus packages, public health spending and delivering a vaccine over the next 12-18 months alone.
The Covid-19 pandemic has caused a reduction in demand for crude oil. However, what is less spoken about is how that reduction affects the chain of actors in the oil production process.
Despite being both the world’s largest energy market and largest carbon emitter, China’s position has long been that responsibility to reduce global emissions rests with rich countries: you broke it, you fix it.
The UK has an opportunity to be at the forefront of the global hydrogen economy – but it calls for rapid technology scale-up.
The 2020 elections bring US energy policy to a fork in the road. Trump offers continuity, with some further easing of regulations on the oil, gas and coal industries. Biden offers a return to the Obama administration’s strategy of using regulation to cut emissions, and more ambitious moves if the Democrats win control of Congress.
Technological innovation could shift challenging economics, accelerate net zero ambitions and create a world-class CCUS industry on the UK Continental Shelf.
Henry Hub gas prices have gone global. Historically, unlike WTI oil prices, Henry Hub gas prices were an “island” and not impacted by global market dynamics. However, times have changed as US LNG feed gas requirements for exports have reached close to 10 bcfd, or 10% of the total US gas market.
With price volatility in the oil and gas industry looking increasingly endemic, financial flexibility is more crucial than ever. Wood Mackenzie has created its inaugural North Sea Financial Flexibility Index (FFI) to determine which companies are best placed to survive – and thrive – in the North Sea.
The UK’s offshore oil and gas industry has committed to cutting operational emissions in half by 2030 and achieving net zero production by 2050. Operators have taken significant steps towards decarbonisation – but achieving these goals will take leaps forward in technology, policy and investment.
IOCs have just been through one of their toughest ever years. But the sector is primed for a V-shaped free cash flow recovery, potentially to record levels. What’s fuelling the shift in fortunes, and how will it shape corporate priorities?
So, when freezing conditions hit the southern US last week, resulting in feedgas into LNG plants collapsing from above 10 bcfd to just below 2 bcfd, and with some Texas price markers soaring north of US$400/mmbtu, anxiety levels should have been rising.
The year ahead will shape the role of gas in the energy transition. Read our predictions for the top five global trends for gas and LNG, and how they could play out in Europe, North America and Southeast Asia.
This year will almost certainly bring a more buoyant M&A market, but there are structural headwinds to be faced. Read our full set of predictions for the year ahead in Global upstream M&A: 4 things to look for in 2021.
None of us could have foreseen what happened this winter. Cost of supply became an irrelevance as Asian spot LNG prices went into orbit. From lows of around US$2/mmbtu in April, the JKM price soared north of US$32/mmbtu last week, with media reports of Trafigura purchasing a cargo from Total at US$39.3/mmbtu.
This will be a defining year for the upstream supply chain, with many service sector companies facing stark decisions about their future direction. Read our predictions and expert analysis in ‘Upstream supply chain: 4 things to look for in 2021’.
While it may well claim the crown of world’s largest LNG exporter in 2021, Australia faces rising problems with its gas.
When President Xi Jinping spoke of the risks of ‘tech wars’ at the World Economic Forum’s virtual Davos Agenda event on Monday, there was little doubt who he was aiming at. At a White House briefing later that day, press secretary Jen Psaki stated that “Technology is of course at the centre of US-China competition.”
Even a global pandemic couldn’t keep climate change from climbing the corporate agenda in 2020, and that momentum will only build in 2021. Which trends will have the biggest impact on extractive industries like oil and gas and mining in the year ahead? Read our analysts’ predictions.
Covid-19 and the oil price crash sent shockwaves through the oil market in 2020. How will continuing uncertainty affect global demand, supply and refining in 2021?
Oil and gas will continue to play a key role in the world’s energy mix for decades to come. But as the energy transition takes hold only the barrels with the strongest economics and lowest carbon emissions will make it to market. Which subsurface factors could point to the optimal reservoirs and an opportunity to seize an advantage?
Japan’s trading houses are re-thinking their long-term strategies around upstream investment.
At present, China accounts for almost 75% of global lithium-ion battery manufacturing capacity and this share is set to increase through the short term with its build-out of new facilities.
