According to Wood Mackenzie, the LNG demand in Asia is growing strongly especially as more countries expand their regasification terminals. In particular, the use of FSRUs has allowed countries to quickly join the buyers’ club. In a recent interview, available on the Asia Pacific Summit website, Wood Mackenzie stated that they are increasingly optimistic on growing LNG imports in Asia.

Diamond Gas International stated that they recognize Singapore’s huge potential of becoming Asia’s hub for the LNG industry considering the advanced social and business infrastructure, and convenient access to traditional demand centers in North East Asia and developing demand centers across South East/South Asia.

Both the Wood Mackenzie and Diamond Gas International interviews are available in full at the Asia Pacific Summit website and they are also participating as speakers at the event which is set tobring together the key LNG buyers and sellers from across the globe this September.
