Global Trends in Natural GasWorld natural gas demand doubled from 1980-2004
Average annual growth of 2.5% is triple that of oil and double the coal growth rate
Key reasons for the increase in demand :
Environmental pressure, wholesale electricity market competition, technical change (combined cycle gas turbines) and economic growth in Asia
The gas share may continue to rise if gas supplies transportation fuel
Possible challenges to a gas future include:
Lack of investor confidence, political instability in supplier nations, local opposition to infrastructure, slowdown to electricity reforms, alternative energy technologies perhaps assisted by further improvements in long-distance electricity transmission

US Natural Gas Demand: 1984-2005The US experience provides evidence of fuel switching
The demand driver has also changed from industrial activity and space heating to power generation
Average Annual Growth Rate approximately 1% per year

Linkage of crude oil and natural gas prices
US markets show strong evidence of a link between natural gas and oil prices:

What links oil and gas prices?
Demand factors
Substitution in the generation of electricity
Substitution in industrial processes –refining, electricity cogeneration – but in sectors such as chemicals high gas prices cut demand without fuel switching
Substitution between gas and heating oil for space heating
Supply factors
Joint production of natural gas and oil can have positive or negative effectsIncreased oil production also yields additional associated gasHigher oil prices also raise the value of non-gas liquids often produced with gasHowever, gas can also be re-injected to enhance oil recovery
Unconventional oil, such as Canadian tar sands, requires natural gas as input
Gas-to-liquids (GTL) conversion (as in Qatar) can lead to direct competition between gas and oil for providing transportation fuel
Impediments to substitution
Environmental factors can affect demand side substitution of oil for gas
Short run capital costs can slow development of alternative supplies
Uncertainty about future energy prices limits willingness to invest
Economies of scale for GTL versus LNGGTL only makes economic sense for smaller scale projects or if oil prices are high

Oil price forecast is from the US Energy Information Administration
Gas price forecast is the equilibrium calculated by the RWGTM
The generally rising ratio of gas to oil prices reflects the assumption that gas tends to supply more energy as economies develop

Concluding Remarks
Modeling illustrates the key roles Russia and the countries of the Middle East will play in the world gas market
Prices will be linked through global arbitrage
Trade need not actually occur, there simply needs to exist the ability to trade – LNG provides this capability
Long distance international gas trade provides opportunities forcountries to gain from cooperation, but also to lose from conflict
Absent political constraints, there appears to be substantial gas available to satisfy demand at a reasonable price
Political constraints may, however, present the largest impediment to globalization
Such political constraints may encourage alternative sources of supply and ultimately alternative sources of energy
The development of alternative energy sources later this century will likely mean that substantial natural gas resources will not be exploited for a very long time, if at all
