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

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.

Alors que l’année 2020 touche à sa fin, il est crucial de dresser une première évaluation circonstanciée des ramifications de cette crise, qui permett ...

    The Arab Spring led to the collapse of dictatorships that ruled the region for decades, creating a void that triggered increased rivalry between three axes seeking to expand influence and control in the region. Using the theoretical framework of ‘offensive realism’ developed by Mearsheimer, this paper analyzes the build-up and circumstances surrounding the intensification of the rivalry between Qatar/Turkey, Saudi Arabia/the UAE and Iran and how this rivalry has become a major drive ...

    Poker is a game for real men, cowboys, for example, ocean divers, stunt men, gambling away their meager pay. Poker is America, as oversized as its trucks, egos and steaks. Poker made its way from quaint southern New Orleans to the rough west, where gold diggers gambled away fortunes, and settlers risked their wagons and horses for a game of cards. Decades ago I met Johnny Moss, a descendent of this wild bunch in Las Vegas. He is the greatest poker player of our time, as his biograph ...
