Will LNG be used in the future?
LNG demand grew by 1\% in 2020, while global gas demand declined. Longer term, the share of LNG in the global gas supply will increase from today’s 13\% to 23\% by 2050 as it meets demand growth and replaces declining pipeline and domestic gas. Approximately 200 MT of additional liquefaction capacity is needed by 2050.
