If high interest rates persist, transitioning to a net zero global economy will be even harder and more costly. The higher cost of borrowing negatively affects renewables and nascent technologies, compared to more established oil and gas, and metals and mining sectors, which remain somewhat insulated.
Home to half of the world’s population and contributing a third to the global GDP, the Asia Pacific region is expected to maintain a 50% share of global primary energy demand and a 60% share of global carbon emissions until 2050. This trend is unlikely to change without strong policy action and investment. However, the region still has the potential to turn these challenges into opportunities and become a global leader in the energy transition.
Market expansion continues for the natural gas sector, but a volatile path may lie ahead in 2024. Wood Mackenzie recently released the North America Natural Gas: 5 things to look for in 2024 report. Key themes to watch for include the need for storage development, resilient gas demand, the growth of LNG exports and infrastructure positioning for production growth.
The right economic and geo-political conditions mean that the outlook for the global floating liquified natural gas (FLNG) project sector is bullish according to a new report by Wood Mackenzie, a global insight business for renewables, energy and natural resources.
Indonesia’s oil and gas sector must undergo a major overhaul in the way it operates if it is to realise the full potential of the country’s natural resources and support a successful energy transition, according to a new white paper by Wood Mackenzie, a global insight business for renewables, energy and natural resources.
The acceleration of the energy transition means gas resource holders increasingly face a choice: follow the established pathway and develop new LNG export facilities or pivot into developing blue ammonia.
Australia’s oil and gas industry needs to urgently fast-track the creation of energy “super basins” to provide a pathway to greater sustainability and cut emissions, according to Anne Forbes, Upstream Research Analyst at Wood Mackenzie.
The Chinese economy is expected to grow by 5.5% but could grow by as much as 7% in 2023 as the country bounces back from three years of lock-down caused by the Covid pandemic according to a new report by Wood Mackenzie.
Veritas Capital (“Veritas”), a leading investor at the intersection of technology and government, today announced that an affiliate of Veritas has completed the purchase of Wood Mackenzie from Verisk (Nasdaq: VRSK).
Colder temperatures across Europe have increased month-on-month heating demand by 20% in December, but behavioural change in households and services means the amount of gas used in these sectors is 16% lower than previous average consumption patterns for similar temperatures says Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk business (Nasdaq:VRSK).
Driven by a surge in LNG exports, the North America natural gas market will support 29 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd) of production from 2022-2033, tripling its current market size, according to a new report from Wood Mackenzie.
Wood Mackenzie, the leading provider of decision intelligence for the world’s natural resources sector, has launched Lens Gas & LNG, a new data analytics solution that offers a uniquely integrated view that connects markets and assets on a global scale.
Scope 3 emissions account for 80-to-95% of total carbon emissions from oil and gas companies. But only a small number of these firms have set Scope 3 net zero ambitions, according to a recent report from Wood Mackenzie.
High natural gas prices will continue to drive down European demand to seven percent below the five-year average through March, leaving a best-case scenario of storage levels at 31% at winter’s end, in line with the five-year average, says Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk business (Nasdaq:VRSK).
With prices soaring 400%, government is challenged to find the delicate balance of energy security and net zero goals
Gazprom confirmed today that regular annual maintenance of Nord Stream is officially over and gas flows restarted at 63 million cubic metres per day (mcm/d) – 40% of the pipeline’s overall capacity. The European gas market has reacted, with prices down by 5%; but the stability of Russian gas flows is by no means a given, according to analysts at Wood Mackenzie.
Russia reducing flows via Nord Stream, outages at Freeport and French nuclear downgrades have sent the European natural gas market into an upward spiral with more volatility still to come. And while summer consumption will be covered, analysts at Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk business (Nasdaq: VRSK) say storage refill is at risk unless additional demand and supply measures are taken.
War in Ukraine is transforming the outlook for the supply, demand and price of hydrocarbons and the pace and cost of the energy transition. While the precise timing and implementation of future bans on Russian commodity imports are difficult to predict, a rewriting of energy trade flows is now underway.
Demand for long-term LNG contracts continues to gain momentum this year as large volumes have been signed and prices for oil-linked deals under negotiation are rising, according to a recently published LNG contract trends report by Wood Mackenzie.
The recent run up in natural gas prices - hitting its highest at Henry Hub since 2008 - is a result of more muted market balancing mechanisms than in the past, say analysts from Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk business (Nasdaq: VRSK).
Five key lessons from today's energy crisis on how to manage the shift to lower-carbon sources while strengthening energy security
High commodity prices and Russia's invasion of Ukraine have called into question the UK’s reliance on energy imports. In response, the UK government is set to unveil a new ‘energy security strategy’.
Eastern Australia’s gas and power markets are at the forefront of Asia Pacific’s energy transition. Markets are undergoing a radical transformation, one which could see gas demand decline by 60% in 2050, depending on the pace of the energy transition, Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk business (Nasdaq:VRSK), said today.
Despite fears that Europe may face a gas crunch following the cancellation of Nord Stream 2, analysts at global energy consultancy Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk business (Nasdaq: VRSK) say Europe is currently in a better situation than it was at the start of the 2021/22 winter.
China’s renewables manufacturing has emerged from 2021 bigger and more competitive than ever before. Western markets are benefitting from trading with the IKEA of the energy transition, but balancing reliance on China’s technology providers with local interests is now a key political as well as environmental challenge, says Wood Mackenzie.
Economic growth, stability in energy prices, energy transition, dual-control targets and relations with the US, are the top five themes to watch out for in China’s energy outlook this year, says Wood Mackenzie.
Risk of a cold winter, uncertainty around pipeline imports and low gas inventories have set the scene across Europe for another volatile year ahead, with the potential for gas prices to soar further and energy shortages to bite.
Wood Mackenzie, releases its Global gas and LNG – 6 things to watch for in 2022 report.
UK gas production is down 28% year-to-date, helping fuel the current European gas price rally, global natural resources consultancy Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk business (Nasdaq: VRSK) said.
The use of carbon capture and storage (CCS) could have a material impact on LNG projects’ carbon emissions. Depending on the strategy adopted, more than 25% of overall carbon emissions could be removed, says Wood Mackenzie,
