'Professor Sakmar's book is a must read for anyone interested in
gaining a better understanding of the most dynamic segment of the
global energy industry.' - Jay Copan, Executive Director, LNG
17With clear and direct text, supplemented with key maps, charts
and graphics from government, industry and other sources, the book
moves the reader smoothly through the early history of LNG up to
current developments, including shale gas and North American LNG
exports. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in
understanding global gas markets and the energy policy challenges
facing us in the 21st century.' - Jacqueline L. Weaver, A.A. White
Professor of Law, University of Houston Law Center, US Countries
around the world are increasingly looking to liquefied natural gas
(LNG) - natural gas that has been cooled until it forms a
transportable liquid - to meet growing energy demand. Energy for
the 21st Century provides critical insights into the opportunities
and challenges LNG faces, including its potential role in a
carbon-constrained world. This comprehensive study covers topics
such as the LNG value chain, the historical background and
evolution of global LNG markets, trading and contracts, and an
analysis of the various legal, policy, safety and environmental
issues pertaining to this important fuel. Additionally, the author
discusses emerging issues and technologies that may impact global
LNG markets, such as the development of shale gas, the prospects of
North American LNG exports, the potential role of the Gas Exporting
Countries Forum and floating LNG. The author contextualizes the
discussion about the importance of LNG with an analysis of why the
21st century will be the 'golden age' of natural gas. Accessible
and non-technical in nature, this timely book will serve as an
essential reference for practitioners, scholars and anyone else
interested in 21st century energy solutions. Contents: Preface
