Highlights
Entering 2023, China’s LNG market price gradually got rid of the “unconventional” high price in 2022 with the easing of supply-demand contradictions in the international market. The fall in import costs facilitated the decrease in LNG import price with the increase in international natural gas supply. The stability of seaborne gas supply significantly strengthened as well. In addition, the loose supply and demand situation in the Chinese natural gas market brought more possibilities for the downward trend in LNG plant costs. As a result, LNG prices saw continuous drops without support from both supply and cost sides. As cost pressure decreases, the end market welcomes the dawn of recovery. The recovery of the competitiveness from the seaborne gas market is stimulating the operation of more LNG terminals. Under the guidance of the “3060” target, it may be inevitable that the supply and demand of LNG will increase, and the potential for LNG market development can be expected.
In the next few years, what influence will the international market have on China’s LNG market? Will LNG prices maintain a low level? What changes will occur in the Chinese LNG supply and demand patterns? SCI LNG Market Annual Report provides a comprehensive data analysis to sort out industry pattern changes and predict industry development trends.
