Spot rates

  • The closure of Freeport LNG caused a sharp decline in rates through the summer months.
  • With the lack of Russian pipeline gas preparations for winter in Europe has led to a massive build up of LNG heading for Europe but mild start to winter has filled gas storage levels and left ships sitting with cargo onboard for long periods of time. This has led to a shortage of ships available to load and rates went to all time high for the very few available ships.
  • The period market has followed suits and 1-yr TC for a TFDE is currently at around USD 185,000 per day as securing tonnage for next winter is in focus for cargo owners

LNG export and import

Q3 2022 vs Q3 2021 (YoY change)

• Shift of demand from Asia to Europe, mainly due to lack of Russian pipeline gas to Europe, Chinas covid measures and mild start to the winter

• Volumes up but shorter sailing distances continue.

Gas prices

US (HH) Asia (JKM) Europe (TTF)

  • Reduced Russian pipeline exports to Europe, closure of Freeport LNG and warm weather lead to very high LNG demand from Europe and extreme prices early in the quarter
  • Prices have come down from their heights, but are still well above historical levels
  • The market continue to expect high gas prices for the entire 2023

Source: SSY

Trainspotting

  • ~ 264 MTPA new capacity currently under planning or construction of which 83 MTPA still need FID
  • High activity on new projects and expansions following Europe's renewed focus on security of supply and high prices for LNG

LNG fleet and orderbook

• Limited newbuilding deliveries in 2022 and 2023 support a strong market for the next years

  • Record high ordering activity in first half 2022 against long term contracts for new LNG production at rising prices
  • New contracts now for 2027 delivery
