The gas lobby in India is working furiously with the powers-that-be for wide reforms to push its agenda
Among the proposals are:
8Develop more LNG based urea plants so that imports come down to zero
8Operate gas based power plants at 40-45% PLF
8Target 90,000 MW DG based captive capacity to convert to LNG.
8Replace diesel and kerosene for lighting by gas or LNG
8Replace LPG by PNG in urban areas as natural gas has to compete with subsidized LPG
8Share of gas in transportation can go up if viability gap funding is provided for gas infrastructure.
8An nter-ministerial panel be set up on import substitution by LNG and gas

The global LPG market has become increasingly complex
8Petrochemical demand is increasing and LPG is in competition with lighter feeds
8There was earlier increased LPG utilisation in steam cracking as there is a price advantage over naphtha
8But LPG prices firmed in the East to 97% of naphtha for propane and 100% of naphtha for butane. So despite steam cracking margins remaining high, the advantage for using LPG declined
8Sea borne trade is showing a distinct change of flows, with West to East volumes continuing to grow in what is a difficult arbitrage environment.
8US exports are gradually heading east displacing Middle Eastern volumes. US exports will account for 33% of total seaborne supply by 2020 and over 38% by 2025
8China is leading the way for LPG but demand is slowing down.
8The focus continues to be in India but for retail demand

This week the IEA released its influential ‘Oil 2018’ report, which analyses oil market developments to 2023. This is the first edition of the report to be released since the IMO committed to the 1st of January 2020 implementation date for full introduction of very low sulphur fuel oil (VLSFO) for the shipping industry. The IEA has thus been forced to offer their view of how the market will evolve.
8Come 2020, the agency expects a near 1 million b/d swing from high sulphur fuel oil (HSFO) to marine gasoil (MGO). Interestingly, the IEA has assumed a large uptake in a new 0.5% fuel oil blend,
named VLSFO, which they estimate will take nearly another 1 million b/d of demand away from HSFO.
8The result is of course, a near 2 million b/d decline in HSFO demand.
8For tankers in the fuel oil trade this may of course seem alarming to see such large volumes of fuel oil demand stripped from the market.
8Yet, VLSFO will be carried on dirty tankers, reducing the demand shift to clean from dirty products to 1 million b/d.
8Furthermore, the IEA estimate that from 2020 to 2023, VLSFO will claw back market share from MGO, with eventual VLSFO demand of approximately 2 million b/d, complimented by 1 million b/d of ‘scrubbed’ (or non-compliant?) HSFO demand.
8In effect, this returns the clean/dirty bunker demand split to where it was prior to 2020, but with VLSFO having taken share from HSFO.

Find out more about how the big battle between hydrogen and electric cars are being fought between Elon Musk (Tesla) on one hand and Takahiro Hachigo of Honda and Akio Toyoda of Toyota on the other.
8The big advantage for hydrogen cars is that can be refuelled within 5 minutes. At best, the electric cars require 9 times longer charging time from an almost empty to a full battery. A Tesla Supercharger gives about 10 km per minute.
8The surprising but unnoticed fact is that hydrogen cars already have longer range, faster refuelling (5 minutes) and lower price than the most high performance electric vehicles.
8Next year's hydrogen-powered cars are announced to get a longer range and lower price than today's
8Hydrogen refueling needs huge investments but technological advancements are making this easier than before. Mass production of electrolytic hydrogen packs in container modules is likely to bring down the cost of setting up dispensing station significantly.
8A 800 km hydrogen powered train is already working in Europe. These trains can change the entire electric auto dynamics in the rail industry. It is possible that eventually, if these trains gain momentum, India's great rail electrification infrastrucutre -- more of which is being built now -- will become redundant.
8The low weight associated with a relatively high tolerance for the hydrogen tank volume, reduced noise and reduced contaminants in water and air should make hydrogen and fuel cell-powered boats an interesting option.
8Hydrogen fuel cells provide approximately 3 times more energy/kg than batteries and it is more realistic to operate an aircraft with hydrogen and fuel cells than with battery. Hypersonic jet planes can be powered by hydrogen.
8Other kinds of interesting options are coming up. For wind power, diurnal variation is buffered with batteries, a couple of days variation with pumped hydropower and several weeks with electrolytic hydrogen. Pilot projects are being launch with furious rapidity around the world to store spare electricity in hydrogen and to convert electricity into chemicals and petrochemicals.

Technology is moving really rapidly and it is always a challenge for companies today to figure out where the future is going to be.
8The website carries here a scan of nearly 350 cutting edge research documents (they are included in this report) that predicts that hydrogen technology is slowly by inexorably gaining an advantage over battery technology in the entire mobility segment, from two wheelers, cars, trucks & buses, trains, drones and aircrafts.
8Hydrogen powered systems are emerging in other segments too, including as long lasting laptop and phone chargers.
8Small hydrogen canisters can provide a 100 km rides for two wheelers.
8The market is evolving very quickly and it seems that lower range cars will be dominated by battery technology whereas long range trucks and vehicles will be powered by hydrogen.
8Cost of hydrogen manufacturing and storage is coming down, particularly when tied up with off-peak renewable energy rates.
8Hydrogen is now becoming cost competitive as more and more companies across the world begin investing in this technology
8Indian companies with an eye on the future need to keep a close track on these developments.
The future is here and it is uncertain.

India says it does not need an electric vehicle policy. Was that because of pressure from the conventional car lobby?
8Case studies seem to show that EVs can only proliferate if there is clear government policy and not otherwise.
8Policy support is indispensable to enable market growth: it encourages uptake by making electric vehicles more appealing to consumers, reducing risks for investors and encouraging manufacturers to scale up production.
8The taxation structure in vehicles is a big driver and so are a host of other incentives

Australia is starting up another $24 billion of LNG of projects. Commissioning dates are spread throughout 2018 and 2019
8The avalanche of fresh LNG will mean that promoters will have to target India as well and not just China, Korea and Japan.
8Australia has a geographical advantage over the US in terms of distance to India. The expansion of the Panama Canal, completed in late-June 2016, means that most LNG tankers can now pass through, providing a shorter trade route for LNG exports from the USA to Asian customers. However, shipping to Asian customers from the US Gulf Coast still takes more than
twice the time of shipping from Western Australia.
8India is still a small consumer of Australian LNG so far, in relation to China and Japan.
