Course Summary

Global energy business is constantly shifting. Energy prices hike and dive, they send shock-waves across the industry and affect businesses and projects. The Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) business is a technological response to such dynamics. Here, to make good project decisions, we need to first understand the fundamentals of the business and the markets. Adam Smith once described the market as where “individual ambition serves the common good”.

This GLOMACS training course introduces the audience to the fundamentals of value creation in the LNG business. It highlights the role of technology as the driving force and discusses the insights from the business domain. Using concepts from economics of LNG business and dynamics of the energy markets, we build models that supports prudent business decisions. Our focus would be on key insights that support major decisions in LNG business.

This training course will highlight:

  • Global energy markets and regional distinctions
  • The economics of energy and the role of LNG business
  • Value creation in LNG projects: from net-back pricing to project dynamics
  • Risk and uncertainty in capital-intensive LNG business
  • Models that support prudent economic decisions in LNG projects
Course Outline

According to Adam Smith, markets are “an obvious and simple system of natural liberty”. Our decisions cannot ignore the core features of the LNG business.
