Presentation: Qatari LNG destruction - Thinking through the long-term implications
The Middle East crisis has stranded around a fifth of global LNG supply and caused damage to Qatari LNG infrastructure that could last for years. As markets digest the short-term upheaval, the longer-term implications are only just starting to emerge. This session explores how the disruption has reshaped the TTF forward curve, what it means for Europe’s storage outlook beyond this year, and how Asian buyers might reassess their long-term LNG strategies.
