8Find out more on why even as LNG demand is growing rapidly, new markets are not providing the needed satisfaction to bankers to fund new LNG projects
8There are many who subscribe to the view that LNG demand will grow at a high compounded rate but there are four major uncertainties which can derail the growth rate.
8Even though India and China's LNG appetite is growing, the overall forecast of demand by 2025 has been lowered recently. Find out why
8Even though there are many LNG proposals waiting FID, find out why some of them are still getting sanctioned.
8Find out more on why LNG prices are going to hit rock bottom in 2019
8A doomsday scenario, where losses from LNG operations exceed the fixed tolling fee, may arise one day, warns a well known consultant.
8Can there ever be a tipping point, where the cost of gas-based power will be lower than that of coal? It is possible, according to some new data coming in
8Find out how Indian companies can take advantage of the increasing willingness of LNG suppliers to be involved with end demand creation. How can that be leveraged? Click on Detals for more. Details

MCFL is likely to swtich to gas from FY 2020 and this is going to improve the company's cost economics
8While the plant is upgraded for use of gas, the pipeline is not ready yet
8The company currently uses costly naphtha.
8The cost reduction due to gas usage will reduce MCFL’s working capital requirements. Currently, naphtha based MCFL has to face restrictive subsidy conditions as the government’s subsidy mechanism for fertilisers is designed with gas as a raw material
8The push towards value added products will also improve the bottonline. MCFL’s board has recently approved the capex plan of Rs 600 crore for setting up a nutrient line capacity of 800 KT of Nitrogen-PhosphorousPotassium (NPK).

8There are a bunch of Indian companies eyeing the Bangladesh LNG market but they need to be careful. Bulk of the LNG in Bangaldesh is meant to be used to generate power but the latest economics seem to indicate that the it is most expensive route to produce power. Cross border power, from India and Bhutan can be cheaper too. The website carries here a comparative chart of cost of power using domestic and imported coal, nuclear energy and LNG in Bangladesh. It is quite likely that LNG-based power may get left behind in the merit order dispatch system. Another point to note is that the Chinese are finding large coal fields in Bangaldesh and this will upset the applecart too. Find out more. Click on Report.

For oil & gas suppliers, it is always necessary to keep the ear to the ground.
8Latest data shows that rooftop solar energy is now cheaper than commercial and industrial grid tariffs in all major states in India. This is a result of rising tariffs of coal based power and falling solar costs.
8Equipment cost declines in just the last year have also brought socket parity for high consumption residential customers having system sizes greater than 5KW in at least 10 states.
8Retail electricity tariffs will continue to rise at least in the short term due to regulator driven tariff hikes to help ailing electricity distribution utilities recover their cost of electric supply.
8Costs of solar electricity are further expected to come down globally because of efficiency gains in technology and manufacturing.
8For commercial customers, payback periods are already an average 5-7 years. A drop in equipment cost and rising grid tariffs will further lower the payback periods.
8India currently has among the lowest solar rooftop rates in the world
8Solar is also making headway in replacing diesel generation sets in some segments of the economy and this is going to impact diesel consumption

India's volatile petroleum products consumption over the last one year has left everyone confused.
8Is it a result of demonetization or GST or is it part of a broader trend that analysts still have to figure out?
8After a 9% jump in consumption in September, the figure is down to 0.9% in October.
8Ever since September last year, the consumption curve has seen some severe fluctuations, reflecting perhaps the turmoil on the ground.
8In the midst of all this confusing industry, two product categories, petrol and diesel, continued to show good growth. So did LPG and ATF.

Some of the key petroleum products needed to keep the economy going are showing negative growth rates
8Bitumen consumption was down 11%
8Naphtha was down 7.2%
8FO/LSHS declined by 4.6%
8But the fact that petcoke registered a growth of 7.3% in October has come as a surprise, now that its use (and that of fuel oil) is banned in the NCR region.
8Then again, even if fuel oil consumption declined in October, its rate of decline is lower than for the consolidated April-October period.
8Clearly, the consumption of dirty fuels in India's economy continues. One reason could be a substitution effect resulting from high spot LNG prices.

The bio fuels route in this process involves the following four steps:
8The first is biomass conditioning, which is. sizing and drying to 10-0wt% moisture.
8The second element involves hydro de-oxygenation of the volatilized biomass to produce a raw hydrocarbon product with proprietary catalysts in the presence of low–pressure hydrogen.
8This serves both to remove oxygen and cap reactive free radicals to provide a stable hydrocarbon product.
8The third element is a fixed–bed hydro treater, which uses other proprietary catalysts to polish the first-stage product and transform it into a finished hydrocarbon fuel or blend stock.
8The fourth element is a Hydrogen Manufacturing Unit (HMU), which converts light gases generated in the first–stage to renewable hydrogen, in sufficient quantity to supply all
process needs.
Comment: Bio-fuel technology is now going hi-tech and proprietary. Big companies with vast resources are incubating newer technology. Efficiency levels are significantly high, and return on investments are now clearly visible. This will spawn a wave of such enterprises in India.

India has set for itself the ambitious target of transforming itself into an "all electric" country when it comes to its automobile industry.
8The ambition has implications for the Indian refinery sector, as it has to make some big investment decisions on how demand for petrol and diesel will emerge over the next 15 to 20 years
8The website carries here a realistic estimate of how much gasoline demand can be replaced by electric vehicles in the future.
8The estimate is that India’s efforts may begin to displace around 15,000 to 20,000 b/d of gasoline demand around 2020, which is not a significant figure but the situation will change rapidly going ahead.
8The current thinking that the two largest non-OECD economies, China and India, are expected to account for 50% of the increase in oil demand to 2035 could be in for some dramatic change.
8The demand uncertainty for diesel and petrol is higher in India than in China.

There are many who believe that green corridors, intercity travel, inorganic growth from new areas and residential usage would drive city gas distribution (CGD) companies rapidly forward.
8One line of thinking is that with the implementation of BS-VI emission norms, economics would be even more against diesel usage and would aid volume growth of companies such as IGL, MAHGL and GUJGA.
8The modifications required for adherence to these requirements would increase the cost differential between diesel vehicles and their petrol/CNG versions. While so far, the growth in CNG volumes has been primarily led by passenger vehicles, the next wave will start from commercial vehicles.
8Between FY17-22, the expectation is that CNG volumes will grow at a CAGR of 11%+ for IGL and at a CAGR of 8% for MAHGL.
8Piped natural gas is another area of growth as CGD companies set foot on new geographies.
8Curbing the usage of dirty fuels like fuel oil and petcoke by industries will further propel growth
Click on Reports on this line of argument, buttressed by facts and figures, that says that the CGD revolution has just begun in India and the golden age for city gas distribution is upon us. Details

Even though the picture is rosy, there are indeed short to medium term risk to the CGD story.
8For one, when BS-VI norms are in place, the basic rationale for allowing access to subsidised gas by CGD companies -- that of lowering the level of particular matter in Indian cities -- will erode as BS-VI norms lower pollution levels significantly.
8If the price of domestic gas is raised or made at par with LNG, CGD will not be able to compete with liquid fuels at higher gas prices in the transportation segment, particularly if the price of crude stays low.
8Then again, the advent of the electric car and its impact on the CGD industry needs to be investigated properly in terms of its cost-benefits.
8Even though the Supreme Court ban on FO and pet coke in the NCR are positive steps, industrial consumption of gas will still remain hostage to economics of alternative fuels such as LPG.
8In the slightly longer run, if the price of electricity falls -- the latest solar bids in Mexico are at a price of a little over Rs 1/kwh -- even PNG demand can peter out as Indian kitchens could then switch to electric instead of gas cooking.

Find out how future oil prices will be determined not so much by US production but by Iraqi output.
8If the impetus is right, Iraq's oil production more than doubles to 6.1 mb/d by 2020 and reaches 8.3 mb/d in 2035.
8The largest increase in production can come from the super-giant fields in the south of Iraq, around Basrah.
8The increase in Iraqi oil production of more than 5 mb/d over the period to 2035 makes Iraq by far the largest contributor to global supply growth (accounting for 45% of the anticipated growth in global output), overtaking Russia in the 2030s to become the world's second largest oil exporter.
8The growth of Iraq's production means that it becomes a key supplier to fast growing Asian markets, mainly China.
8Iraq stands to gain almost $5 trillion in revenues from oil export over the period to 2035 if the situation on the ground remains peaceful. Click on Report for more. Details

China is building a robust distributed energy systems which integrate several power sources -- gas, solar, wind, coal, municipal solid waste, bio mass, among others -- across geographical locations.
8Distributed energy encompasses both heat and power generation. In India such systems will involve cooling assets as well.
8These systems have the potential to play a central role in power system transformation in India as they can provide solutions for cost-effective and secure integration of wind and solar power in a number of ways.
8Distributed systems cut down on T&D losses and brings energy systems nearer to the customer
8The Chinese example can be a great model for domestic policy planners who are yet to put their mind to driving such system in India
A range of technologies are in use, including:
--Co-generation and tri-generation
-- Heat recovery systems
-- Absorption chillers
8Current costs and trends are deciphered and laid out. Different distributed models are elaborated. Digitally enabled connectivity-based business models with the ability to collect and analyse large amounts of data and to optimise the use of a vast number of assets are mushrooming.
8Find out more on the kind of policy parameters the Chinese have adopted to drive distributed systems.
8More importantly, there are many distributed natural gas systems in place -- as gas is deployed in industrial complexes, data centres, office buildings, hotels, airports and schools -- and Indian policy makers can study such systems and tailor make possible fits for local deployment.

Distributed Energy System (DES) stand apart from centralized energy systems. An average homeowner will never own a coal-fired power station, and is unlikely to ever feel that they participated in the decision to build one.
8Then again, buying power from the grid, there is no control over where the electrons came from. In contrast, the devices of energy consumption -- electrical appliances, the majority of heating systems, automobiles -- are selected based on consumer choices.
8With DES, the customer now can participate at all levels: they can own their own generation, their own storage, their own smart appliances.
8This is also relevant to stakeholders at all levels: increasingly homeowners, businesses large and small, and bodies such as local and state governments are participating in distributed energy solutions as a means to express an identity, whether it is to show a commitment to addressing climate change or to tap into the latest smart trends.

There is also increasing attention in China about developing gas from electricity
8China is looking to Germany for technology.
8German companies are developing power-to-gas projects to test innovative approaches to using electricity, which may be supplied from renewable energy sources.
8Currently, a German company has two power-to-gas pilot projects ongoing. Both projects generate hydrogen by means of electrolysis. In general, the hydrogen can be either directly used for industrial uses and transport or combined with CO2 to produce methane, a fuel for power generation, heat supply and mobility
8In addition to the two pilot projects, another German company is collaboration with an oil major is examining the technical and economic feasibility of power-to-gas processes for use in refinery systems.
8Another company has developed a plant that is able to produce up to 360 m3 per hour of hydrogen from wind power (2 MW) through alkaline electrolysis.
8The hydrogen is then fed into the natural gas pipeline.
8When renewable energy drives electrolysis, this is effectively storing and transporting renewable energy.
8Demonstration projects are on to show renewable energy could be stored within the natural gas grid as the generated hydrogen is transported via pipeline to a connection point of the grid, where it is injected into a high-pressure transmission pipeline.
8This project shows that power generation can be decoupled from consumption to make it available as hydrogen or methane to other sectors including transport, industry and heat.

There is no denying that most vessels will have to switch to a fuel of maximum 0.5% sulphur content in 2020
8The worry for the industry is what the premium of low sulphur fiel will be over the fuel oil price in 2020.
8Anyone considering the scrubber option should be taking steps now to plan a refit as competition for yard space could become critical the nearer you get to the deadline (effectively 24 months away).
8Mass adoption of LNG conversion as an alternative fuel is a possibility though for many analysts, it is off the menu for several reasons.
8The only area that there is unanimous agreement is that the changeover is going to be costly for all interested parties.
