The report also provides analysis of trends, drivers, and challenges to the natural gas industry in Asia- Pacific, Europe Europe (y r`əp), 6th largest continent, c.4,000,000 sq mi (10,360,000 sq km) including adjacent islands (1992 est. pop. 512,000,000). , Middle East and Africa, North America North America, third largest continent (1990 est. pop. 365,000,000), c.9,400,000 sq mi (24,346,000 sq km), the northern of the two continents of the Western Hemisphere. , South and Central America Central America, narrow, southernmost region (c.202,200 sq mi/523,698 sq km) of North America, linked to South America at Colombia. It separates the Caribbean from the Pacific. . The leading players in global natural gas industry and their investment opportunities and challenges are also examined. The company analysis includes survival strategies and factors that will differentiate leading oil and gas companies companies from others to 2015.
Scope
- Analysis of key issues and challenges for natural gas producing companies in Asia-Pacific The term Asia-Pacific generally applies to littoral East Asia, Southeast Asia and Australasia near the Pacific Ocean, plus the states in the ocean itself (Oceania). , Europe, Middle East and Africa, North America, South and Central America.
- Natural Gas - global consumption versus production capacity.
- Natural gas storage across different regions in the world.
- Natural gas transportation - pipelined natural gas and LNG LNG (liquefied natural gas): see under natural gas. .
Reasons to buy
- Identify the most profitable regions and markets to operate in by benchmarking the various regions on production and consumption of natural gas
- Understand the threats and opportunities in the global natural gas industry, and fine tune strategies to exploit the underlying trends
- Understand the changing demand for natural gas to anticipate and create products ahead of the competition
- Be well prepared to operate in the era of price volatility by understanding the impact of changing prices of natural gas
- Be well prepared to address the upcoming environmental legislations and devise ways to exploit the situation.
