NGI’s Jamison Cocklin, managing editor of LNG, talks with Davenport Energy’s Toby Copson, managing partner and portfolio manager, about where things stand in the Asian LNG market as winter nears an end and the restocking season approaches.
Copson, an LNG trader, discusses why Asian LNG spot buying has been so sluggish and whether he expects that to change anytime soon. The conversation also covers other influences shaping the world’s largest LNG market. Copson and Cocklin explore what role Asia will play in the years ahead as more supply from the United States and elsewhere comes online and global natural gas trading expands.
