1 Global LNG Contract Terms and Revisions An Empirical Analysis Mark Agerton Graduate Fellow Center for Energy Studies, Rice University IAEE International Conference, June 17, 214
2 Research question I How is LNG priced under long-term contracts (LTC)? Pricing terms are not public Rules of thumb? JKM spot price? Mark Agerton 2 / 31
3 How to infer characteristics of LTC terms? I Exploit public customs data Importer + Exporter Total volume + value I Characterize statistical relationship I Understand LTC pricing terms better I Overcome econometric issues Cointegration Unknown structural breaks Mark Agerton 3 / 31
4 Why focus on JKST, and Japan especially? 25 2 million metric tons 15 1 Others Taiwan Spain Korea Japan Source: Petroleum Economist Mark Agerton 4 / 31
5 Asian markets are tight Atlantic Pacific 15 million metric tons 1 5 LTC Actual Total Source: GIIGNL and author's calculations Mark Agerton 5 / 31
6 Customs data capture LTC, not spot cargoes Atlantic Pacific 15 million metric tons 1 5 Actual Total Spot + ST Source: GIIGNL and author's calculations Mark Agerton 6 / 31
7 What do LTC pricing formulas look like? I Alaskan LNG export license I Oil benchmark I S-curve I Regimes j = 1,...,m + 1 LNG Oil p+1 X y t = c j + j jr z t r + u t t = T j 1 + 1,...,T j r= Mark Agerton 7 / 31
8 Why worry about structural breaks? I Renegotiation clauses (Weems, 26) I Changing value of LNG Substitutes Supply and demand shocks I S-curves =) nonlinearities I Heterogeneity in underlying contracts Mark Agerton 8 / 31
9 DOLS with structural breaks p+1 X y t = c j + j r= jrz t r + u t m px y t = c j + jz t + js z t s + u t s= I Dynamic OLS I Minimize SSR I UD max, sup Wald and SEQ(k k + 1) I Bai and Perron (1998, 23); Kejriwal and Perron (28b, 21) Mark Agerton 9 / 31
10 Breaks in the LNG oil relationship Country of origin Indonesia Qatar Nigeria Algeria Oman Qatar Indonesia USA UAE Brunei Malaysia Australia Qatar Breaks in time or s-curve kinks? Taiwan Spain Korea Japan Fukushima? Elimination of s-curves is contract revision Mark Agerton 1 / 31
11 Breaks in the LNG oil relationship Country of origin Indonesia Qatar Nigeria Algeria Oman Qatar Indonesia USA UAE Brunei Malaysia Australia Qatar Breaks in time or s-curve kinks? Taiwan Spain Korea Japan Fukushima? Elimination of s-curves is contract revision Mark Agerton 1 / 31

14 Breaks in the LNG oil relationship Country of origin Indonesia Qatar Nigeria Algeria Oman Qatar Indonesia USA UAE Brunei Malaysia Australia Qatar Breaks in time or s-curve kinks? Taiwan Spain Korea Japan Fukushima? Elimination of s-curves is contract revision Mark Agerton 1 / 31
15 Japan: LNG vs oil prices 2 USA Indonesia Malaysia Brunei LNG 2 15 Australia UAE Qatar Regime Oil Mark Agerton 11 / 31
16 Focusing in on two series 2 Indonesia Malaysia 15 Regime 4 LNG Oil Mark Agerton 12 / 31
17 Japanese contract revisions I S-curve kinks? 2: USA, Brunei, Malaysia ($25 26) early 24: Qatar ($31) late 24: Indonesia, UAE ($4) I Eliminate S-curves? 27 (Qatar, Malaysia, Brunei) 29 (UAE, maybe Australia) Asian imports exceed LTC and High oil prices 27 present I Shifts up in I Fukushima only Indonesian revisions Mark Agerton 13 / 31
18 Other countries: LNG vs oil prices LNG Korea Qatar Korea Oman Taiwan Indonesia Spain Qatar Spain Algeria Spain Nigeria Regime Oil Mark Agerton 14 / 31
19 S. Korea, Taiwan, Spain I Fewer and smaller revisions I No S-curves I Slopes South Korea and Taiwan: approximately.17 1/5.8 Spain: similar to S-curve tail (.6.1) Mark Agerton 15 / 31
20 Findings I Japan S-curves to reduce risk Abandoned: rising oil prices, tight market Fukushima: LTCs as insurance? Poorer fit in recent years I South Korea and Taiwan No S-curves Smaller countries, fewer firms and revisions I Spain More substitutes and weaker indexation Fewer revisions, no S-curves Mark Agerton 16 / 31
21 Conclusion I Pricing with oil-indexation, not JKM I Heterogeneity and revisions in pricing, not rules-of-thumb I Must account for structural breaks Mark Agerton 17 / 31
