How much gas can China consume? What is China's shale gas potential? What will be the delivered cost to consumers? How will demand respond to these pricing signals? What will this mean for market participants for China and the global gas market? Click below to learn more.
Unconventional Gas: local supply with global implications
Global
Sharp growth in unconventional gas production in North America turned the gas market on its head. Many commentators, expecting growth to be repeated elsewhere, are forecasting the perpetuation of a global gas surplus. Click below to learn about the issues that surround this.
