NATS Revises Downward Its Expected U.S. LNG Throughput for 2008
This morning NATS released a downward revision of its LNG throughput estimate for the United States in 2008. NATS predicts that between 340 and 382 Bcf of regasified natural gas will be injected into the national gas grid in 2008, compared with an earlier estimate of 425 Bcf. NATS publisher Zach Allen notes that although access to LNG import capacity will nearly triple in 2008, U.S. LNG imports are expected to be half of those received in 2007. [Subscription required]
