Global natural gas market trends

What’s driving the gas price

  • Oil and gas prices have risen. The Russia-Ukraine conflict has impacted  global energy markets. With strong demand for LNG in global markets.
  • LNG infrastructure in Australia has increased output and seen the industry expand.
  • Western Australia dominates Australia’s oil and gas landscape. The state accounts for over 40.0% of business locations and over half of Australia’s domestic gas production.
  • Renewable energy sources are rising. With the world moving to a green no emission global economy the long-term need for oil and gas will be reduced.

The key is the energy transition. Gas is seen with a longer-term future than oil.
