Natural gas taking a center stage; NG vessel market to grow Energy analysts recently said that oil prices was often closely correlated with geopolitics conditions. The analysis is pertinent with the recent condition in the global energy market and political movements. With Russia-Ukraine political strain that involves many countries especially those in Europe and the US, gas supply concerns rose. The election of the moderate Hassan Rouhani as the President of Iran-a country with huge gas and oil reserves-has also brought discussions in the energy market. The energy analysts in Malaysia believe that global oil prices is stabilizing while gas taking center stage. Recently, oil prices fluctuated from around USD94 per barrel to well above USD110, but overall appeared to be more stable than the geopolitical situation warranted. Meanwhile, natural gas forecasts 2020 show various versions. The IMF predicts that the gas price will remain more or less stable since 2014, the World Bank foresees an increase, while Economist Intelligent Unit economic and Commodity forecasts a decreased gas prices. See more at http://knoema.com/ncszerf/natural-gas-prices-long-termforecast-to-2020-data-and-charts The US Energy Information Administration May 22nd report indicated that natural gas futures prices went down due to higher storage data. It says that working gas in underground storage in the Lower 48 reached an estimated 1.266 tcf as of May 16. The total reflected a net increase of 106 bcf from the earlier week. The June natural gas futures contract on the New York Mercantile Exchange went down by USD0.114 to a rounded USD4.36/MMbtu in trading on May 22nd. Meanwhile in London, the ICE Brent gas oil contract for June went down by USD0.75 to USD913.50/tons. With Russia and China recently closed a gas supply deal, more gas is expected to be delivered to the rest of Asian countries in the future, ensuring and strengthening gas resources for this energy hungry continent. The EIA’s Golden Age of Gas prediction remains if not strengthened. Although several countries are experiencing (a temporary) slowdown in NGVs adoptions, the market for this sector is more focused. Various countries have been showing stronger and more rapid growth in methane adoption in transport sector. The US is busy building LNG/LCNG infrastructure for HeavyDuty DDF and LNG vehicles as well as continuing conversions of both Heavy-Duty and Light Duty Vehicles (LDVs) powered by LNG or CNG. Meanwhile, LNG and CNG engine makers and CNG vehicles manufacturers improve and widened their offers. China keeps converting vehicles to natural gas mode and moving more and more towards OEM NGVs for both HDVs and LDVs segments. Nowadays, the government and private companies are actively developing LNG refueling and vehicles market for both marine/waterways and on-road vehicles. India, Thailand, Germany, Italy, Argentina, Peru and Colombia and various other countries keep showing stable growth especially in the conversion sector.

The global NG tank market Several new technologies were recently (re-) launched to the natural gas world. One of those is the introduction of ENERG2 and BASF Adsorbed Natural Gas fuel storage system or so-called ANG system that could revolutionize the market for natural gas vehicles. EnerG2 itself has developed ultra-high surface area carbon materials that can be applied in natural gas storage systems and without the liquefaction and boil-off challenges of LNG. The ANG technology form both companies is expected to change the CNG fuel storage market as it offers a technology to store the gas in lower pressure (500-1000 psi instead of 3600 psi), and, thus, allow CNG vessels manufacturers to change the shape of the fuel storage (that traditionally must be in a cylindrical shape due to the high gas pressure it needs to contain). The technology allows more gas to be stored in the same cylinder/vessel, and thus, offers higher vehicle driving range and increase the distances for refueling needs. The good news in the methane fuel storage sector does not stop there. The global composite CNG tanks market for automotive industry is expected to reach an estimated value of USD524 million by 2019 with a double digit growth over the next five years, according to Research and Markets’ report. The major driver of composite CNG tanks market for automotive industry is development and growth of the natural gas powered vehicles. Emergence of CNG as a low-cost fuel compared to petrol and diesel helps to drive the demand for CNG powered vehicles, which is likely to further intensify the demand for CNG tanks. Composite CNG tanks are much lighter than their conventional counterparts, resulting in weight savings with more fuel storage capacity, while providing an additional improvement in fuel economy of vehicles. While composite CNG cylinders are gaining ground in Western and Northern part of the world (Europe and the US), and a niche market in China, the rest of the world mainly used type 1 (and type 2) CNG cylinders. Meanwhile, LNG tanks for vehicles and filling stations are mainly popular in the US, Europe, and China.

Posisi penting bahan bakar gas alam; projeksi pangsa pasar tangki gas Analis-analis energi baru-baru ini mengatakan bahwa harga minyak sering berhubungan erat dengan kondisi geopolitik. Analisa ini relevan dengan kondisi pasar global energi dan gerakan –gerakan politik akhir-akhir ini. Ketegangan politik Rusia-Ukraina yang melibatkan berbagai negara terutama di Eropa dan Amerika Serikat menimbulkan kekhawatiran terhadap pasokan gas. Terpilihnya Hassan Rouhani sebagai Presiden Iran-negara dengan cadangan gas dan minyak besar -juga meempengaruhi analisa pasar energi. Para analis energi di Malaysia percaya bahwa harga minyak dunia akan tetap stabil sementara bahan bakar gas (BBG) akan menempati posisi penting di waktu mendatang. Baru-baru ini, harga minyak naik turun dari sekitar USD94 per barel sampai di atas USD110, tapi secara umum harga minyak tampaknya lebih stabil daripada situasi geopolitik saat ini. Sementara itu, analis-analis energi dunia mengeluarkan berbagai versi dari “prediksi gas alam hingga tahun 2020”. IMF memprediksi bahwa harga gas kurang lebih akan tetap stabil sejak tahun 2014, Bank Dunia meramalkan peningkatan harga, sedangkan Intelijen Ekonomis Unit bidang Ekonomi dan Komoditi mmeperkirakana adanya penurunan harga gas. Lihat lebih lanjut di http://knoema.com/ncszerf/natural-gasprices-long-term-forecast-to-2020-data-and-charts . Laporan US Energy Information Administration pada tanggal 22 Mei menunjukkan bahwa harga gas alam akan menurun secara bertahap karena penyimpanan gas meningkat, menurut data. Organisasi ini menyatakan bahwa gas di penyimpanan bawah tanah bagi 48 states di Amerika diperkirakan mencapai 1,266 tcf per tanggal 16 Mei. Jumlah ini mencerminkan kenaikan bersih dari 106 bcf dari minggu sebelumnya. Harga kontrak gas bagi deliveri bulan Juni di New York Mercantile Exchange turun sebanyak USD0.114 menjadi USD4.36/MMbtu pada lelang 22 Mei. Sementara itu di London, kontrak gas ICE Brent untuk bulan Juni turun sebesar USD0.75 menjadi USD913.50/tons. Pasokan gas bagi Asia diharapkan akan dapat diperkuat sejak adanya kesepakatan Rusia dan China untuk memasok gas ke China. Diharapkan, Rusia akan dapat mengirim gas ke Negara Asia lainnya di masa mendatang. Perkembangan geopolitik dan enerji market tersebut di atas memperkuat prediksi EIA tentang Golden Age Gas. Meskipun penambahan armada NGVs di beberapa negara sementara ini menurun, pangsa pasar NGVs secara umum lebih terfokus. Berbagai negara telah menunjukkan pertumbuhan yang cepat dalam penggunaan metana (BBG) di sektor transportasi. Amerika Serikat sedang sibuk membangun infrastruktur LNG / LCNG untuk kendaraan Heavy-Duty DDF dan LNG serta melanjutkan konversi dari Kendaraan Heavy-Duty dan Light Duty (HDVs dan LDVs) berbahan bakar LNG atau CNG. Sementara itu, pabrik mesin LNG dan CNG dan produsen kendaraan CNG menambah penawaran mereka dengan produk-produk barunya. China tetap mengkonversi kendaraan ke sistem gas alam

serta menambah adopsi OEM NGVs untuk segmen HDVs dan LDVs (buatan pabrik). Saat ini, perusahaan pemerintah dan swasta secara aktif mengembangkan sektor SPB LNG (tank stasiun)dan sektor kendaraan dan kapal laut berbahan bakar LNG. India, Thailand, Jerman, Italia, Argentina, Peru dan Kolombia dan berbagai negara lainnya terus menunjukkan pertumbuhan yang stabil , terutama di sektor konversi.

Pangsa pasar tangki NG global Baru-baru ini, berbagai teknologi baru sehubungan dengan sektor BBG telah diluncurkan. Salah satunya adalah sistem penyimpanan bahan bakar dengan sistem Adsorbed Natural Gas (ANG) yang bisa merevolusi pasar untuk kendaraan gas alam. Dua perushaan yang berbeda, EnerG2 dan BASF telah meluncurkan teknologi ANG mereka. EnerG2 sendiri mengembangkan bahan karbon dengan fitur permukaan super luas - yang dapat diterapkan di sistem penyimpanan gas alam serta menghapus tantangan pencairan dan penguapan LNG. Teknologi ANG kedua perusahaan ini diharapkan dapat mengubah segmen pasar tangki penyimpanan bahan bakar CNG. Dengan teknologi , gas dapat disimpan dalam tekanan rendah (500-1000 psi dan bukan lagi seperti yang ada pada saat ini dengan gas bertekanan 3600 psi). Dengan demikian, produsen tangki CNG dapat mengubah bentuk penyimpanan bahan bakar tersebut (yang secara tradisional harus dalam bentuk silinder karena adanya tekanan gas yang tinggi). Deangan teknologi ini, volume gas yang dapat disimpan dalam tabung menjadi lebih besar, sehingga driving range kendaraan akan lebih tinggi. Dengan demikian, jarak untuk pengisian bahan bakar dapat diperbesar. Kabar baik di sektor penyimpanan bahan bakar metana tidak berhenti di situ. Potensi pasar global tabung komposit CNG untuk industri otomotif diperkirakan dapat mencapai USD524 juta pada tahun 2019 dengan pertumbuhan dua digit selama lima tahun ke depan, menurut laporan research and Markets. Penyokong pasar tabung komposit CNG adalah perkembangan dan pertumbuhan kendaraan bertenaga gas alam. Munculnya CNG sebagai bahan bakar murah dibandingkan dengan bensin dan solar membantu mendorong permintaan kendaraan CNG, yang kemungkinan akan lebih mengintensifkan permintaan untuk tabung CNG. Tabung komposit CNG jauh lebih ringan daripada rekan-rekan konvensional mereka, dengan berat yang ringan dan kapasitas penyimpanan bahan bakar yang setara, memungkinkan economic savings yang lebih besar. Sementara silinder CNG komposit mulai populer di dunia bagian Barat dan Utara (Eropa dan AS) serta seabgain dari pangsa pasar di China, negara lainnya di seluruh dunia banyak menggunakan tabung CNG tipe 1 (dan tipe 2) dari besi. Sementara itu, tank LNG untuk kendaraan dan SPB terutama populer di AS, Eropa, dan China.

天然气成为焦点；天然气存储市场前景广阔 日前，能源分析家表示，由于油价和地缘政治条件密切相关 ，其分析也是基于全球能源市场和政治运动的近况做出的。 随着俄罗斯和乌克兰之间的地缘政治紧张局势持续，使得各 国担心天然气供给受阻，特别是欧洲和美国。伊朗作为拥有 大量天然气和石油资源的国家，在温和保守派哈桑· 鲁哈尼 当选伊朗总统后，也成为能源市场讨论的焦点。 马来西亚能源分析家相信全球石油价格已趋于稳定，天然气 将会成为全球的焦点，将在能源结构中逐渐从配角向主角转 变被各家认可。 近期，油价再次出现较大波动，由一桶94美元涨至110美元 ，但总体来说，比地缘政治形势的变化要稳定。 同时，还有多个关于2020年天然气行业发展前景预测的版 本：国际货币基金组织（IMF）预计天然气价格将从2014年 起，保持稳定，世界银行预计会涨价，而EIUec预计会降价 。更多信息详见http://knoema.com/ncszerf/natural-gasprices-long-term-forecast-to-2020-data-and-charts 美国能源资料协会(EIA) 5月22日报告指出，受到较高储藏量数据影响，未来天然气期货价格会下跌。五月十六日，地下储藏 可用气体量较低的48个州预估达到1.266 兆立方英尺。这个总量比本周早些时候报道的数字高出1060亿立方英尺。 纽约商品交易所6月天然气期货合约下跌0.114美元，5月22日报4.36美元/MMbtu。同时，6月期布伦特原油期货合约每吨下跌 0.75美元，每吨为913.50美元。 近期俄罗斯和中国终止了一项天然气供应协议，天然气供应被寄希望于亚洲其他国家，为这个能源匮乏的大陆保证和加强天 然气资源供应。 电子工业联合会（EIA）将未来情形之一称为“天然气的黄金时代”。尽管一些国家正在经历（暂时性的）天然气汽车发展放缓 的阶段，使得该市场集中度更高。甲烷在各国运输领域的应用正以更强、更快的速度增长着。 美国正加紧为重型DDF和LNG车辆建设相关LNG / LCNG基础设施，以及重型和轻型车辆（LDVS）改装系统（改装为LNG或 者CNG动力系统）。与此同时，LNG、CNG发动机制造商和CNG汽车厂商也在扩大产量，拓展产品种类。 中国一直在推进天然气汽车的改装项目，现在还投入更多到HDV和LDV的OEM天然气汽车的生产中。如今，政府和私人公司 正在积极发展海洋/水路、陆地相关的LNG加气站以及汽车市场。 印度、泰国、德国、意大利、阿根廷、秘鲁、哥伦比亚和其他国家呈现出稳定的增长势头，尤其是在改装方面。

全球天然气储罐市场 近期，各种新技术在天然气产业中（重新）应用。其中一种是能够彻底改变天然气车辆市场的技术，ENERG2和BASF吸附天 然气燃料储存系统，即所谓的ANG系统。EnerG2开发了一种可以应用在天然气的储存系统的超高表面积的碳材料，可以应对 液态运输和汽化损耗等问题。 ANG技术有望改变CNG燃料存储市场，该技术是一种低压存储气体技术（压力为500-1000 psi而不是3600 psi），CNG船舶 制造商可以改变燃料存储容器的形状（传统高压气体必须存储于圆柱形容器中）。 采用该技术，同等气缸/容器可以存储更多气体，增加车辆行驶距离、延长加气距离。 研发及市场报告指出，不仅如此，全球复合材料CNG车用气瓶市场价值也有望在2019年达到5.24亿美元，未来五年内，市场 价值还会以两位数增长。 天然气汽车发展是复合材料CNG车用气瓶市场发展的主要驱动力。相对于汽油和柴油，CNG这种低成本燃料的出现，极大地 刺激了市场对CNG汽车的需求，从而进一步促进对天然气储罐的需求。复合材料CNG车用气瓶比传统气瓶更轻，燃料储存能 力更强，燃烧效率也更高。 复合材料CNG车用气瓶在地球以北和以西的部分（欧洲和美国）越来越为人们所接受，中国拥有相关目标市场，其他的国家 主要使用1型（和2型）CNG气瓶。 同时，车用和加气站LNG专用储罐主要流行于美国、欧洲和中国。

New globally certified explosion proof dewpoint transmitter provides universal solution Michell Instruments has announced the launch of the latest addition to its Easidew range of dew-point transmitters: the Easidew PRO XP. This is the first explosion-proof transmitter in the range and has been introduced to meet the requirements of markets where explosion-proof or flame-proof rather than intrinsically-safe certification is needed. The transmitter is housed in a tough, explosion-proof casing, which is rated to IP66/NEMA 4. The instrument is certified for ATEX, CSA and IECEx – making it acceptable in hazardous areas world-wide. As with its sister product, the Easidew PRO I.S., the Easidew PRO XP is capable of measuring moisture in both gases and liquids. This versatility makes it an ideal option for systems integrators as they only need to stock one dew-point transmitter for all moisture measurement applications in hazardous areas. Typical applications for the Easidew PRO XP include natural gas processing and transmission, biomethane production, hydrocarbon refinery processing, polymer production and CNG. The Easidew PRO XP uses the latest ceramic moisture sensing technology from Michell, and is capable of measuring dew points in gases from -110°C to +20°C and 0-3000 pppmV. In liquids the measurement range is from 0-3000 ppmW. With a 450 bar (6527 psi) pressure rating, EN10204 3.1 material certified parts and NPL/NIST 13-point calibration certificate, it meets all the current demand of the process industry. Sample conditioning is vital to ensuring reliable and accurate measurements. Michell’s sampling systems are designed to work with the Easidew range of transmitters, ensuring the sample gas is at a consistent temperature and pressure as well as filtering out contaminants to prolong the life of the sensor. A range of standard options are available, as well as customised systems to meet particular process requirements. The Easidew PRO XP is part of Michell’s service exchange programme, which ensures that your process is never offline.

Adsorbed gas storage system tested in NGVs ENERG2’s Carbon Technology Platform designs and customizes high-performing polymer chemistrybased materials for virtually all energy storage applications – from traditional batteries to ultracapacitors to advanced battery chemistries to natural gas storage.

Since few years ago, CNG cylinders and compressors have been fairly standardized due to the pressure needed to fill an on-board vessel. But in a new cylinder technology, adsorbed natural gas storage systems could drastically change the market, allowing vessels to be filled at lower pressures. This leads to changes in the shape of the fuel container, and the future of the CNG vessel sector. US-based NW Natural in Portland City is offering up its NGV fleet as testing grounds for a new tank technology: adsorbed natural gas (ANG) storage systems. The tests will be conducted in partnership with the energy storage systems company EnerG2, headquartered in Seattle. NW Natural has about 100 CNG bifuel vehicles in fleet and experience with more than 1,000 CNG vehicles over the course of a 150-year history. Meanwhile, EnerG2 developed ultrahigh surface area carbon materials that can be applied in natural gas storage systems and without the liquefaction and boil-off challenges of LNG.

The “adsorbed natural gas” storage system An ANG system is designed to allow more volume lower pressure of to be stored in an on-board CNG vessel. What the system contains is actually a material made with a porous, synthetic carbon-based interior, that allows the gaseous fuels to soak in to the “nano pores”. This liquid-like state, in which the gas becomes very dense around these materials, is referred to as an “adsorbed state,” according to Aaron Feaver, Ph.D., EnerG2’s chief technology officer. “It is somewhere between a liquid and a gas, so when you use these types of materials you’re able to store gas at a higher density but lower pressure,” said Feaver as quoted in Work Truck website. EnerG2 ANG system allows CNG vehicles users to fill up at much lower pressures. This means that a high-end 3,600 psi (pounds per square inch) compressor would not be required to fill up a cylinder, nor would the cylindrical tank shape be necessary to provide the strength needed for high pressures. Feaver says that per volume on a lowerpressure ANG tank, you might store the

Thirteen CNG composite cylinders filled with ANG granulates were especially installed in VW Caddy for the EcoFuel Asian Tour

same amount of CNG as you would using a 3,600 psi compressor, but using an 800-1,000 psi compressor instead. It means lower the cost of the compressor, thus reduces the electricity costs associated with running the compressor. With the ANG system, engineers can depart from the standard cylindrical shape seen in CNG tanks. As the gas pressure is lower, CNG vessels can be made in rectangular shape for example. This will allow more space efficiency around the area where the vessel is stored, for example, in the trunk. With the ANG materials, the ANG cylinder would hold 10-20 percent more gas, according to Feaver. The noncylinder shaped vessel that utilizes as many corners and crannies available on board the vehicle can increased fuel capacity could go up to 50 percent. Thus, you can go extra mileage with this system as you have more fuel on-

board, and the refueling distances will be extended.

The study The NW Natural and EnerG2 becnh and two-months field tests are done to understand the properties of the system that includes: ® Understanding in detail the differences in filling up the ANG tank at different pressures ® How easy it is to release the gas from the vessels with an ANG storage tank in it ® What the migration characteristics are of the material ® How easy it is overall to work with an ANG tank

Other ANG system Apart from EnerG2’s ANG system, German-based BASF also introduced

similar system few years ago using Metal Organic Framework (MOF) materials. MOF materials are highly crystalline structures with nanometer-sized pores that allow for the efficient storage of natural gas and other gases such as hydrogen and carbon dioxide. MOFs can also be used in other applications such as gas treatment and in catalysis. They provide a high surface area on which gases are adsorbed. For example, a one gram sample of BASF MOF materials offers a surface area equivalent to a football (soccer) field, according to its website. Currently, the firm is focused on commercializing MOF solutions for the transportation industry (in Asia, Europe, and North America). The MOF materials could allow for increased storage of natural gas, offering the potential to significantly increase vehicle range or to operate fuel storage and natural gas compression systems at lower pressures.  Demonstration vehicles equipped with natural gas fuel systems containing BASF MOF materials were introduced in 2013.  In May this year, BASF SE  and Ford Motor Co. showed a vehicle with a really innovative technology that could

revolutionize the market for natural gas vehicles in the United States during the Alternative Clean Transportation expo. According to both companies, the same amount of natural gas that requires 3,600 PSI in a traditional vessel can be stored at closer to 1,000 PSI in a tank filled with MOFs. Indications are that BASF will make MOFs commercially available in 2015 in the US . If they are cost-effective, they could make in-home and on-location refueling feasible, fast, and cheap, while also significantly increasing the amount

of CNG that can be put into a fuel vessel. The three big challenges — refueling infrastructure, driving range, and vehicle space constraints — will all be significantly reduced.  BASF is involved in ARPA-E’s MOVE (Methane Opportunities for Vehicular Energy) Program and is partnering on a project on Low Pressure Material-Based Natural Gas Fuel Systems. Also in late 2012, BASF received France’s Pierre Potier Prize for research achievements in the area of metal organic frameworks (MOFs).

In May, Exxon Mobil Corporation said it shipped the first cargo of LNG from the PNG LNG project in Papua New Guinea ahead of schedule. The first cargo is bound for LNG customer Tokyo Electric Power Co. Inc. (TEPCO) in Japan. The USD19 billion PNG LNG, operated by ExxonMobil affiliate ExxonMobil PNG Limited, is expected to produce more than 9 trillion cubic feet of gas over its estimated 30 years of operations. “The project is optimally located to serve growing Asia markets where LNG demand is expected to rise by approximately 165 percent between 2010 and 2025, to 370 million tonnes per year,” said Neil W. Duffin, president of ExxonMobil Development Company . Production from the first train started in April and production from the second train has also started as additional wells came online. The PNG LNG project is an integrated development that includes gas production and processing facilities in the Southern Highlands, Hela, Western, Gulf and Central provinces of Papua New Guinea. Approximately 435 miles of pipeline connect the facilities, which include a gas conditioning plant and liquefaction and storage facilities with capacity of 6.9 million tonnes of LNG per year. The four major customers for the project’s output are China Petroleum and Chemical Corp. (Sinopec), Tokyo Electric Power Co. Inc. (TEPCO), Osaka Gas Co. Ltd., and CPC Corp. Taiwan. ExxonMobil continues to assess and advance new expansion and development opportunities in Papua New Guinea.

A new mother station for Ujjain Presently, Ujjain City has only two daughter stations at Rishinagar. One of the stations serves for bus fleet only, while the other one is open for public. As these daughter stations are supplied gas through compressed gas transported in cylinders from Indore it is not feasible to re-fill buses and other vehicles through these daughter stations. Yet, the city is likely to get its first CNG mother station in 2015. Member of Parliament Dr Chintamani Malviya, Minister of School Education Paras Jain and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) city president Iqbal Singh Gandhi visited the land of Oil Fed located at Nagziri where the mother station to be built, in May. The land allotted by government for erection of CNG mother station is located in Nagziri in Nagjhiri village. It would take about eight months for completion of construction work of the Nagziri mother station, which is being set up by Awantika Gas Limited (AGL). The fuel would be made available by mid-February next year, in the city with the mother station getting ready at Nagzhiri.

To date, AGL which is a joint venture of Gas Authority of India Limited (GAIL) and Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL), has 14 CNG filling stations in the Madhya Pradesh State and two in Ujjain City. In another 18 months, the CNG availability would be available across the city for domestic

use as piped natural gas apart from vehicles and for use by industries. After the opening of mother station, the city transport corporation will acquire a new CNG bus fleet and work for filling stations was on to ensure that all diesel buses were replaced by CNG buses in due course.

Gas price hike might not be implemented The Indian government may not implement the delayed increase in price of natural gas. Previously, in January this year, the Prime Minister-appointed C. Rangarajan Committee suggested mandating a price of domesticallyproduced natural gas at an average of international hub prices and cost of imported LNG instead of the present mechanism of market discovery. The new price suggested by this panel was planned to be implemented by April 1st, 2014, but was delayed due to the general elections. Nevertheless, the government is considering not implementing the new pricing yet. Natural gas is mainly used for manufacturing fertiliser, generating electricity and producing CNG. Since the new price announcement was deferred, gas was sold at the old rate of USD 4.2 per million British thermal units. At the assumed new rate of USD 8.4, the cost of power will jump to Rs 6.40 per unit from Rs 2.93 a unit currently. It would translate into an increase of at least Rs 8 per kg in retail CNG rates. The official said the BJP-led government is studying the Rangarajan panel formulation of pricing gas at an average of international hub prices and the rate at which India imports LNG. A decision on implementing the formula, which was approved by the Cabinet under then Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in December, will be taken in consultation with the ministries of finance and law.

India is eyeing for more LNG import from USA To strengthen India’s gas supply, local main and state-owned natural gas processing and distribution company GAIL (India) Limited is expecting to import more LNG from the US by the end of July 2014. GAIL’s Chairman B. C. Tripathi recently stated that the firm is expecting to sign deals for 3.5-4 mtpa of U.S. LNG. The firm largely sells gas to city gas distribution companies, steel, textile and ceramics as well as refineries. GAIL already has a supply deal with Cheniere Energy to buy 3.5 mtpa of LNG for 20 years, and has booked capacity for another 2.3 mtpa at Dominion’s Cove Point liquefaction plant. GAIL also opens a tender in June to charter 6-8 LNG carriers for shipping the LNG from the U.S. to India, concluded Tripathi.

Qatar to supply LNG to Pakistan To ease the gas shortage issue in Pakistan, the country seeks for LNG import from overseas. The recent years’ effort to find more gas sources from abroad is fruitful as recently, Qatar gave a firm commitment to Pakistan to start exporting 200 million cubic feet of LNG per day (mmcfd) next year. Later, it will be enhanced to 400 mmcfd per day. Qatar insists that the LNG supply contract should be for 15 years extendable for another five years with no “price reopener”. Qatar expects

that LNG price will be fixed as a percentage of Brent crude oil. In line with this, state-owned company Interstate Gas Systems (ISGS) - formed to handle energy import projects – has wrapped up the process of awarding the LNG terminal services contract to Elengy Terminal Pakistan Limited. ISGS has already signed Iran-Pakistan and Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India gas pipeline deals. Also, an LNG terminal contract will be finalized within this year. According to an assessment of the Pakistan Ministry of Petroleum, local

gas production would go down from the current 4.47 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd) to 2.53 bcfd in 2019-20 if additional supplies were not brought. Gas shortfall stood at 1.88 bcfd in 2013-14, which would jump to 4.79 bcfd in 2019-20. The ministry plans to import 200 mmcfd to 2 bcfd of LNG, 750 mmcfd of natural gas from Iran and 1.365 bcfd from Turkmenistan to bridge the shortfall. It also wants to enhance supplies from domestic sources to meet energy needs in future.

Flare gas project for Pakistan

The Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Resources of Pakistan is planning to utilize flare gas to ease energy shortages issue and attract investment in the country. In a bid to add 100 million cubic feet of gas per day (mmcfd), Pakistani Economic Coordination Committee (ECC), in its June meeting, was expected to approve a flare gas policy with some incentives. Rather than having flare gas – a type of low-pressure gas –burnt in the air at different gas fields, the government wants to exploit the “otherwise wasted” energy to curb the gas shortage issue in the country. “We have the potential to produce 100 mmcfd of flare gas, which could be used by fertilizer manufacturers, power plants and CNG outlets,” an official said. For this gas, the government plans to offer the price set in the new Petroleum Policy 2012, which ranges between USD6 and $8 per million British thermal units (mmbtu).

Around 3,100 CNG buses for Bangkok by 2015-2016 Finally, the main operator of public transit buses within Greater Bangkok area and the largest city bus system in Thailand, the Bangkok Mass Transit Authority (BMTA), has begun a necessary procedure to procure around 3,183 CNG buses. Around THB 13 billion is allocated for the procurement. BMTA Acting Director Nares Boonpiam, in his capacity as the chairman of the TOR (Terms of Reference) drafting panel, explained that the 10th TOR announcement has been posted on websites of the Comptroller’s General Department and the BMTA. The TOR will allow related parties to review, comment, and propose possible revisions before bidding can take place. The BMTA expects the first and second lots of CNG buses to be delivered by February 2015 and February 2016 respectively. The public transport entity has also launched a campaign to help promote road safety on May 16th in which all buses are required to stay on their left-hand lane and stop at every bus stop. The goal for this campaign is to ensure that bus drivers strictly follow traffic regulations and also ensure safe traveling during the school semester, which has already begun.

Shell sees a “downward trend” on NG prices The price of natural gas is expected to continue falling and can potentially become the "backbone" of cities around the globe in the future, says Jefferson Edwards, Shell's general manager for Global LNG and Gas Market Development. The gas price would stay on a downward trend due to innovations taking place in the United States and China. Referring to the development of shale resources in China and the US, Shell believes that cost will continue to fall as innovations come out of both countries. The Economist Intelligence Unit has forecast that the price of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in the Japan, one of the biggest markets for LNG, will slide from USD16.2 per million British Thermal Unit (BTU) in 2013, to $15.6 this year, USD13.9 in 2015, USD13 in 2016, USD12.5 in 2017, and to USD12 in 2018. During a recent event in Singapore, Shell’s chief says new innovations will make a difference. Among his advices, he also urges Thailand to keep focus on gas.

Iran to continue importing petrol while adopting more CNG The Managing Director of the National Iranian Oil Refining and Distribution Company, Abbas Kazemi, says importing petrol is economically justified for Iran. In recent years, three petrochemical facilities were producing petrol to meet the domestic need under the international sanctions imposed on Iran’s oil sector. The locally produced petrol was mixed with imported additives to improve the quality of fuel. That cost the Oil Ministry a lot. But, for the time being, importing premium petrol is more economically justified. The country’s daily petrol imports stood at 3.5 million liters on average in the previous Iranian calendar year. On May 11th, Kazemi said that Iran has imported 5.5 million liters of petrol per day on average since the beginning of the current Iranian calendar year.  If the irregular consumption of petrol continues in summer, the volume of imports may be further increased. The

Oil Ministry has forecasted that the nation will import 10 million liters of petrol per day in the current Iranian calendar year.  Kazemi said that the expansion of CNG stations would be among solutions which help the country curb petrol consumption.  Also in May, an official with the National

Iranian Gas Company said that 1,000 new CNG stations are projected to be established across the nation. The project will contribute to reducing petrol consumption by 20 million liters per day, the official added. According to official statistics, a total of 2,186 CNG stations were operating by May 5 across the country.
