5 Changes in Japanese LNG Demand after the Earthquake Disaster (Million tons) (Million tons) CY2010 CY2011 Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec CY2010 CY2011 Tokyo Gas LNG Imports Gas Companies LNG Imports Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec 5 Increased gas demand for CGS and electric power generation Gas demand for automobile and other manufacturing declined with supply chain confusion, etc., but has been gradually recovering Declining trend in residential and commercial sector use with stronger energy conservation awareness during the summer Basically flat on year-on-year basis

6 Changes in Japanese LNG Demand after the Earthquake Disaster (Million tons) 6.0 Electric Power Companies LNG Imports CY2010 CY2011 Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Large increase in LNG consumption volume with the suspension of nuclear power operations As operations at existing nuclear power plants are suspended for periodic inspections, future demand will fluctuate greatly depending on when plants go back on line after stress tests 6

7 bcm LNG Demand Outlook for Tokyo Gas <Tokyo Gas supply plan (prior to the disaster) > Potential increase in demand Hitachi LNG Terminal (planned) 2015~ Annual growth rate of approx. 3% between FY2010 and FY2015 Ohgishima LNG Terminal Negishi LNG Terminal Kashima PL (under construction) 2012~ Sodegaura LNG Terminal (Actual) (FY) Kashima PL 2012~ Hitachi LNG Terminal 2015~ Reinforcement of infrastructure to expand LNG demand * All rights reserved. 7

8 (MTPA) LNG Demand Outlook for Japan? ハイケース High Demand Case ローケース Low Demand Case Source: The IEEJ (Prior to the disaster) While gas companies had assumed an increase in LNG demand prior to the earthquake disaster, the outlook is for an even larger increase from expansion in demand for CGS and gas air conditioning. Electric power companies had projected declining LNG demand from a shift to nuclear power prior to the earthquake disaster, but LNG demand will greatly increase in the short term. Long-term demand will fluctuate widely depending on Japan s nuclear power and energy policies.

10 Global Natural Gas Trade and Regions (2010) Price-setting Formula Europe Asia North America Crude oil & petroleum products prices a+b ( a constant) Each hub price +c (a constant) Crude oil price a+b (a constant) Henry Hub price+c (a constant) Pipelines LNG Was linked to the price of crude oil & petroleum products, but the volume of hub price gas spot trading increased from the late 1990s centered on the U.K., and from 2010 some hub prices are reflected in pipeline prices. No competition with pipeline gas prices; LNG price linked to the price of crude oil. 10 Different price movement than crude oil prices. Pricing depends on the natural gas (pipeline) supply and demand. The prices shot up higher than crude oil prices in 2006 from a tight supply-demand balance, but have since remained low with progress in shale gas development.
