LNG Consumption by Region, 2011-2012
Demand for LNG almost doubling over the next decade.
Asian LNG Demand Remains Robust
Demand and Prices have No Correlation
Asia pays the highest price for gas
Accounts for 71% of LNG demand
New LNG Market reality: Rise of
new suppliers and consumers
India, China, Korea, Japan tied-up
LNG indexed to HH from USA
Market needs new price models to
sustain growth of LNG industry
Challenges for Asia

Asian Market – as it is today
There are three major regional markets
Their own specificities and own ways of pricing gas with very
large variations in price
Gas has 11% share in the energy mix vs 24% global average
Gas consumption is largely thru LNG import
Though Asia accounted for 71% of global LNG consumption in
2012, it still continues to pay the highest price
India and China represented a combined 12% market share in
2012
The growing appetite for LNG in India and China resulted in
7.7% & 12.2% growth in 2012 (YoY basis)
Challenges for Asian Market
a) Lack of adequate infrastructure particularly cross-
border gas pipelines
b) No ‘gas to gas’ competition
c) LNG prices are still linked to oil prices
d) Despite large volume of gas consumption, Trading
Hub and regional Index are missing in Asia-Pacific
region
e) Absence of trading hubs is keeping Asian gas
prices very high vis-à-vis North America and
Europe
• Regional Cooperation among Asian Buyers is of prime
importance to face the challenges

India’s Challenges and Strategies
• National Gas Grid- Shaping up rapidly, to be ready by 2017 (PAN Indian
presence with pipeline network of 31,000km)
• End-use reforms to address price sensitivity and affordability
• Building enhanced LNG import capacity
(20 MMTPA in 2013 to 35 MMTPA by 2017)
• Contract new LNG at competitive prices and conditions
• Develop a portfolio of equity assets in LNG and upstream in
USA/Africa etc.
• Develop capacity and capability to create and maintain infrastructure
• Attract required investments
