16 Conclusions 1. An LNG-driven transformation of global gas is underway Flexible U.S. LNG ramping up and responding to market signals Driving development of an interconnected and more liquid global market-place Europe acting as the balancing market for LNG 2. Flexible LNG set to have a growing role in Europe LNG provides supply diversification, supply competition, a transparent pricing point and volume flexibility Declining domestic supply means that both LNG and pipeline supplies will be required U.S. as the largest Atlantic Basin LNG supplier by well-placed to provide baseload & flexible LNG to Europe 3. Forecast LNG oversupply is not yet evident in the current market Global LNG markets responding to lower prices & increased LNG accessibility; government policies favouring gas LNG supply into Europe still expected to grow over next few years Global markets will need additional LNG supply early next decade - will Europe be a passive or active player? 16
