LNG is in the spotlight for the natural gas industry on a both national and global basis. For the forseeable future, LNG appears to be competitively priced versus U.S. domestic supplies, but LNG brings its own unique international baggage that may change trading, pricing and capacity dynamics in the U S. markets. The global impacts of the LNG trade and U.S. infrastructure developments are crucial to the success or failure of LNG as a growing part of the U.S. Natural Gas industry.
