                Asia Pacific gas & LNG: 5 things to look for in 2025
Asia Pacific had a year of continuous LNG demand recovery in 2024. Multiple factors drove that recovery, including organic economic expansion, structural production declines, new entrants' purchases and delayed nuclear power plants.
Price-sensitive buying, along with longer and hotter summers featuring heat waves across much of Asia, spurred additional demand. Correspondingly, countries emphasised energy security and affordability more than ever.
What does 2025 hold for the Asia Pacific gas and LNG industry? In this insight, we draw on insight from Lens Gas & LNG to highlight five key themes our team is watching closely over the next 12 months.
This includes:
- How will President-elect Trump’s policy on LNG affect regional players?
- China’s policy packages: upsides and downsides
- Contracting activities to persist
- Which new importers secure FSRUs
- Indonesia’s gas plans: balancing growth, energy security and policies
