Description:

This book analyses the role of liquified natural gas in a decarbonising world and presents the most significant energy-transition options and implications for the LNG industry. Using a bespoke meta-framework grounded in institutional theory and case studies of Japan, the UK, and China — three countries at different stages of the energy transition — the book examines how institutional, political, and resource characteristics affect LNG use, and explores implications for LNG exporters and how LNG compares with pipeline gas.

Utilising a multi-method approach including data analysis, in-depth interviews and direct observations, the book concludes with findings on the potential role of LNG in various future stages of the energy transition. Written by an industry expert with over 25 years of experience across Qatargas, ExxonMobil, GreenGulf and Qatar Foundation, this book will be of value to students, researchers, and academics in energy, decarbonisation and environmental studies.
