The LNG demand-supply outlook keeps changing on a continuous basis.
8The latest estimate is that supply will catch up to demand as early as 2020.
8New LNG liquefaction projects may not come up fast enough.
8Capital approval for LNG project has come down in recent years from around 20MMTPA in 2015 to below 5MMMTPA in 2017.
8This is in contrast to demand growth in last year alone estimated at more than 25MMTPA.
8This cool down period coincided with the market anticipation of LNG over-supply, which, there is now a consensus, has not happened.
8If demand and supply is going to be tight from as early as 2020, it augurs well for the Indian offshore gas production projects which will be coming on stream around that time as their prices are aligned to the LNG landed price.

Indian companies are inadequately represented in the over 1,300 companies -- including more than 100 Fortune Global 500 companies with collective annual revenues of about US$7 trillion which disclosed that they are using an internal price on carbon to inform their decision making, or plan to do so.
8While most companies use internal carbon pricing as a tool to manage potential climate-related risks, some companies also see additional benefits internal carbon pricing provides for improving cooperation within the company, particularly between finance and sustainability departments and senior management.
8The consensus carbon prices for the power sector to decarbonize by 2050, is in the range of US$24–36/tCO2e in 2020 and US$38–100/tCO2e by 2035.
8Importantly, the consensus carbon prices of US$30–50/tCO2e in 2020 and US$50–100/tCO2e in 2035 will be needed to put the chemical sector on a pathway in line with the Paris Agreement.
8The chemical and petrochemical sector as a consequence see a dramatic overhaul in its production processes.
