Bi Webinar – Evolving LNG Contracting: New Norms and Next Moves | August 13

As the global LNG market continues to expand, buoyed by the recent successful financing of several major supply projects, many more are working to reach a final investment decision (FID). Against this backdrop of rapid development and heightened competition, the dynamics of long-term LNG contracting are evolving in new and important ways. Join us for an in-depth webinar where we explore both buyer and seller preferences, highlighting key pricing developments, policy implications and emerging commercial preferences, as well as major emerging challenges/opportunities in the market which are influencing negotiations today. Key Topics Include: From the buyer’s perspective:

• Beyond the headline price, what are buyers asking for? We will explore shifting preferences in flexibility, optionality and delivery terms.
• With a wave of Brent-linked contracts set to expire later this decade, and new Brent-linked supply entering the market, does the market see oil-linked pricing diverging from Henry Hub and if so, how?
• How are Asian buyers navigating US tariff pressures, and what implications does this have for contracting strategies?

What do sellers want to know?

• What are some of the contracting challenges involving leading EU suppliers including Russia, Qatar and the US?
• In the EU, how are the Methane Regulations, policies to phase out Russian gas and newest trade deal with the US impacting long term LNG contracts?
• The European Commission has agreed to commit to major energy purchases, including LNG under the July 27^th tariff agreement with the US. How will this test European markets?
• Some US LNG contracts seem to be defying higher project costs – but will banks accept the prices?
• How are projects outside the US structuring and pricing their volumes?

Join us, as we offer timely insights and expert commentary on the shifting contours of long-term LNG contracting.
