LNG Infrastructure Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

The rise in the demand for cleaner fuels is notably driving the LNG infrastructure market growth, although factors such as fluctuations in global oil and gas prices may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the LNG infrastructure industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key LNG Infrastructure Market Driver

One of the key factors driving the global LNG infrastructure market growth is the rise in the demand for cleaner fuels. According to the IEA, the demand for energy is expected to increase by 30% in 2040 over that of 2015 due to the global population growth and industrial development in emerging economies such as China and India. According to the World Bank, by 2050, the global population is expected to rise to 9.16 billion. Furthermore, oil and coal were the major sources of energy to meet the energy demand, which resulted in a significant increase in the emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other GHGs. Such factors increased the demand for natural gas across the globe. For instance, according to the US EIA, natural gas-fired power plants accounted for 40% of the total production of electricity in the US in 2020, which is expected to reach 43% by 2025. Hence, the demand for natural gas is expected to increase owing to the demand for cleaner fuels, which, in turn, will positively impact the market growth during the forecast period.

Key LNG Infrastructure Market Trend

Another key factor driving the global LNG infrastructure market growth is the growing demand for LNG bunkering to cut emissions arising from shipping activities. In 2020, according to the IEA, heavy fuel oil (HFO) accounted for 79% of the fuel mix in marine bunkers. Hence, it is the most popular marine fuel across the world. However, there have been significant developments to make LNG bunkering more efficient and convenient in the past few years, due to stringent regulations on the use of conventional sources. For example, the UTS demonstrated a system that can bring bunkering infrastructure to a vessel using a floating platform, which is connected to the shore with cryoline cryogenic floating hoses. The UTS reduces the capital expenditure incurred on bunkering facilities significantly. Such developments in LNG bunkering coupled with the implementation of stringent emission regulations will further boost the demand for LNG as a marine fuel, thereby contributing to the growth of the market in focus during the forecast period.

Key LNG Infrastructure Market Challenge

One of the key challenges to the global LNG infrastructure market growth is the fluctuations in global oil and gas prices. For instance, the crude oil import cost in Japan was USD 104.16 per barrel in 2014. As per IEA, the price of crude oil declined to USD 54.42 per barrel in 2017 but increased to USD 76.49 per barrel in September 2018. Similarly, in May 2021, the prices reached USD 69.08/barrel that significantly increased to USD 74/barrel in December 2021. As there is no globally integrated market for natural gas, the pricing mechanisms vary regionally. In regions like Asia, natural gas is imported as LNG, but the supply price of LNG is indexed to that of crude oil, based on long-term contracts. Similarly, internationally traded natural gas is indexed to crude oil prices, such as Japan customs-cleared crude, i.e., Japanese Crude Cocktail (JCC) or North Sea Brent, owing to the substitutability of natural gas and petroleum products in certain markets and the transparency and liquidity of crude oil prices. Such factors are expected to pose a challenge to the growth of the global LNG infrastructure market during the forecast period.

This LNG infrastructure market analysis report also provides detailed information on other upcoming trends and challenges that will have a far-reaching effect on the market growth.

COVID Impact and Recovery Analysis

Countries in North America witnessed a significant number of fatalities due to COVID-19 in the first half of 2020. The halt in construction activities due to lockdowns has disrupted the LNG infrastructure industry, as the construction of LNG infrastructure requires thousands of components that are provided to manufacturers by numerous suppliers. This decreased the revenue of the market in the region in 2020. However, the region is gradually propelling its economic activities due to factors such as the initiation of large-scale vaccination drives, which are supporting the growth of the regional economy.
