La spotification du marché du gaz naturel liquéfié: origine et implications
Authors
Yves Jégourel

Related topics: 

En raison de la distance géographique existante entre les zones principales de consommation et de production et de l’existence consécutive de coûts logistiques importants, le marché du gaz naturel liquéfié (GNL) s’est historiquement structuré autour de contrats d’approvisionnement de long terme indexés sur les prix pétroliers. Avec le développement récent des gaz de schiste et une croissance européenne atone, l’excès d’offre de GNL favorise désormais le développement des marchés spot, notamment en Asie, par nature plus flexibles et déconnectés des prix pétroliers. Dans cette optique, il n’est pas impossible que la filière du GNL se financiarise à plus ou moins long terme.

    For years, no one knew why dozens of battered wooden ghost boats, often with the corpses of North Korean fishermen, whose starved bodies were reduced to skeletons, routinely washed up on the Japanese coast, wrote Ian Urbina in an August 2020 report for Yale University’s 360 environment project. The explanation, he said, could be that “China is sending a previously invisible armada of industrial boats to illegally fish in North Korean waters, forcing out smaller North Korea boats and ...

Born in France, Patricia Ahanda partly grew up in Cameroon, her parent’s country. When her father was posted in ...
