OSTI ID:6161301
Between now and the mid-1980's, the world trade in LNG is expected to double, which would represent an annual growth rate of 16%, down from the 23.5% growth rate experienced in the last 20 yr. By 1979, international trade grew to 4482 billion cu ft/day, which represents a 30-fold increase in the last 15 yr, during which the number of LNG-exporting countries increased from one to six. Projects in the planning stage and expected developments in the financing and technology of such projects are discussed; LNG deliveries and baseload LNG projects currently operational, firm, or under construction, in planning stages, under consideration, and canceled or held in abeyance are tabulated.
