The definitive go-to source for gas and LNG market analysis

BNEF publishes its Global Gas and LNG Outlooks thrice a year – one medium-term and two seasonal outlooks. These are focused on market fundamentals and include analysis and forecasts. The medium-term outlook covers the next five years whereas the seasonal outlooks covers up to the next three seasons.

The European Gas Market Seasonal Outlooks focus on the supply-demand balance in the BNEF Europe Perimeter – Northwest Europe, Italy and Austria – a grouping that comprises the most actively traded and interconnected gas markets in western Europe. In the Medium-term Outlook geographical coverage is extended to Europe (excluding Ukraine, Moldova, and Turkey).

The Global LNG Outlook provides a view on all the LNG supply and demand markets around the world, with a focus on Asia and Europe. As part of the Global LNG Outlook, BNEF also publishes separate breakout reports on China, Japan, South Korea, Emerging Asia (South Asia and Southeast Asia), global LNG supply and LNG trade.

The US Gas Outlook covers all major supply and demand fundamentals impacting underground gas storage, a key driver behind prices in the region, such as US gas production and pipeline exports to Mexico.

EU Gas
Gas demand destruction across Europe and strong LNG supplies into the region will continue playing a key role in keeping European gas balances healthy.

Asian Markets
Decarbonization initiatives will play a key role in China’s gas demand growth over 2024-2030. China will lead the LNG imports growth over this period followed by the markets in South and Southeast Asia.

US Gas
An unseasonably warm winter has pushed US gas inventories to seasonal highs despite record power sector gas consumption, intensifying the market’s need to find a balance over the coming seasons.
