In a recent three-part series on LNG, European Energy Review reports extensively on this much acclaimed game changer of the gas markets. First, our UK correspondent Alex Forbes focuses on the large-scale exports of US LNG, making them much more than just another supplier. Second, our Asian contributor Rudolf ten Hoedt digs into the Japanese struggle to bring down LNG prices. More competition and liquidity should do the trick, as you can read in his piece.
