The LNG wrap welcomes Gavin Thompson from Wood Mackenzie to discuss the upcoming COP26 meeting in November, what may develop and what it could mean for the global gas and LNG industry. 

This week you’ll see from Patricia Roberts’s news roundup, it's not just temperatures that are breaking world records!

Globally the vaccine rollout continues against Covid 19, Global GDP is back to pre-pandemic levels and LNG spot pricing is sizzling whilst price arbitrage profits are soaring.  We’ll cover the latest short term trends and the longer term LNG outlook. 

This week’s podcast centres around the theme of  “Back to the Core,” as LNG faces up to challenges throughout the supply chain.

In Australia, Santos is being challenged in court over its plans to get to Net Zero and LNG’s credentials as a clean fuel. In Mozambique, the challenge of constructing a greenfield project is being tested while in Japan, METI recognises the fragility of supply security issues and the need for closer management. Listen in to this week’s round up of the global LNG news.

This week, Pat looks at how the global LNG industry can be stronger together. Topics include the Woodside BHP merger, adopting CCS in the LNG supply chain, Supply demand trends and much more!

This week, Pat chats to Rob West, Founder of Thunder Said Energy about all things energy transition. He has a tremendous grasp of all issues in energy transitions from innovation, technology to Net Zero. 

On this week's podcast, Pat frames the IPCC report issued this week and looks at what LNG can do to help with energy transitions and lower global GHG emissions responsibly.

This week, Pat invites Melissa Lindsay of Emsurge/ Emstream to discuss  her views on Carbon Neutral LNG and how it is currently being developed. What precisely is a Carbon Neutral LNG cargo? Is it defined rigorously enough that it contributes meaningfully to the reduction in global warming? And what are the essential elements that need to be scaled up so that we encourage the correct behaviour in companies who want to transition actively to Net Zero?

Inspired by the performance of Olympic athletes who relentlessly push to be the best versions of themselves, this week's LNG Wrap is all about how the global LNG industry needs to do the same. With companies pioneering and setting trends, collectively the push is on for LNG to clean up its own supply chain and provide clean, affordable and reliable energy year in, year out. 

Whilst we've all been basking in a heatwave, the heat has also been on the global LNG business. From sweltering heat, floods, CO2 emissions set to rise, problems at Gorgon's CCS and insights into Japan's latest energy policy, Pat wraps it all up, alongside latest news and trends in the latest episode of the LNG Wrap.

Following 50 years of growth and continuous improvements in technology, LNG must now reduce it's own carbon footprint in order to ensure a successful next phase of its business. In this week's #LNGWrap, Pat covers various streams of news relating to cleaning up the LNG supply chain and new trends emerging.
