Description
The shale gas boom has led to large quantities of cheap natural gas becoming available to companies. Many companies are looking at different monetization options and the most talked about option is LNG. Most attention is given to large-scale LNG projects with the aim of exporting to large markets such as Europe and Asia, but small-scale LNG is also an attractive monetization that many companies are considering. Small-scale LNG offers both unique opportunities and challenges ranging from supplying smaller regional markets for marine or industrial use to capital expenditure problems that arise from a lack of economies of scale. This presentation will explore the opportunities and challenges that companies involved with small-scale LNG can face as well as give insight through analysis of markets, companies, technologies, strategies, and economics.
