Visiongain has published a new report entitled Floating Liquefied Natural Gas (FLNG) Market Report 2022-2032: Forecasts by Spending (OPEX ($Mn), CAPEX ($Mn)), by Number of Vessels (Units), by Type (Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO), Floating Storage Regasification Unit (FSRU)), by OPEX Type (Topside Development, Hull Design & Construction, Mooring System, LNG Transfer Systems), by CAPEX Type (Engineering & Design, Materials & Parts Procurement, FLNG Construction, FLNG Commissioning, Other) AND Regional and Leading National Market Analysis PLUS Analysis of Leading Companies AND COVID-19 Impact and Recovery Pattern Analysis.

The global floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) market was valued at US$16,670 million in 2021 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 20.1% during the forecast period 2022-2032.

Rising Natural Gas Demand Will Drive the Global FLNG Market
Early adopters of this novel approach sought to supply their end users swiftly, efficiently, and affordably. Significant accomplishments include more than simply the first LNG delivery to Shell's Prelude FLNG vessel for commissioning and the first shipment of LNG from Golar LNG's Hilli Episeyo from Cameroon to China. By more effectively servicing the world and placing a crucial emphasis on diversified energy sources, they have unlocked the door to what is conceivable.

In order to get supplies to areas with high demand, LNG production and shipping technologies, particularly FLNG, have now been established and are gaining speed. China and India's demand for gas, despite that nation's efforts to achieve renewable energy targets, demonstrates a comprehensive strategy to power generation that should keep natural gas in demand.

How has COVID-19 had a significant negative impact on the Floating Liquefied Natural Gas (FLNG) Market?
The LNG market was already headed for an oversupply in 2020 and 2021 before the COVID-19 outbreak, since new projects kept expanding capacity considerably beyond consistent demand growth. The pandemic's decreased gas consumption has increased the amount of excess supply, causing the market to be volatile. Additionally, a prolonged period of low oil prices and greater rivalry among sources of gas supply as new supply enters the market have combined to erode margins, placing pressure on gas and LNG producers. COVID-19 presents an opportunity for the floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) market player to play an expanded role in care. The growing number of coronavirus cases across the globe and the rising relationship between technology and healthcare is projected to open new revenue avenues for the market players over the forecast period.

What are the Current Market Drivers?

FLNG Is A Viable Option for Commercialising and Exporting from Both Nearshore Gas Deposits and Land-Based Pipeline Networks
It has been demonstrated that the FLNG is a viable option for commercialising and exporting from both nearshore gas deposits and land-based pipeline networks. The operational and financial flexibility of FLNG is on full display as the need for greener, less expensive energy is steadily rising. Operators and developers are eager to see how far this ship can go them now that a more effective and affordable alternative is available on the open market.

Gas-To-Liquid (GTL) Technologies Have Been Considered and Put Forth as a Way to Make Money from Remote Gas Sources
Gas-to-liquid (GTL) technologies have been considered and put forth as a way to make money from remote gas sources, which are also being held back from wider commercialization. The search for commercially feasible technology for handling and transporting gas is prompted by the rising worldwide energy demand, depleting oil supplies, and environmental advantages of natural gas's low greenhouse gas emissions.
Three major groups can be made up of the alternative options for marketing stranded gas: export markets, combined-commodity projects, and local or regional markets. Depending on the distance to the market and the magnitude of the gas resources, several technologies may be employed to develop remote gas fields. The environmental advantages of GTL products may help to improve the air quality in urban areas where pollution from transportation fuel emissions is a problem. According to a full-cycle environmental analysis, GTL fuels do not considerably outperform fuels from refineries.

Where are the Market Opportunities?

The Advancement of Technology in FLNG Sector
A lot of nations have worked to establish alternative energy sources, such as fresh and renewable energy sources. Natural gas (NG) plays a crucial role in this regard because it has the lowest capital expenditure (capex) of all the energy resources, especially in power plant fields that require large energy capacity. The capital outlay for natural gas is almost a third of what it is for coal and a sixth of what it is for offshore wind, making it the most efficient energy source. Natural gas (NG) that has been chilled to the point of liquefaction produces liquefied natural gas (LNG), which has been regarded as one of the finest solutions for minimising disputes over energy initiative and security.

Capital Improvement of Project
To properly manage financial risk in LNG projects, it is essential to understand the economics of the LNG value chain. Since LNG has become so affordable, switching to natural gas from coal and oil will no longer be supported by incentives. However, it is necessary to set up appropriate volume allocation and accompanying agreements between suppliers, buyers, and other key stakeholders in a way that favours natural gas in the long run. Utilizing data from the entire industry, liquefied natural gas (LNG) project economic viability is assessed. Liquefaction, shipping, and re-gasification are included on a unit energy basis that synchronises the range of expenditure numbers (both capital and operating) seen in the literature. Large upfront capital investments are often needed to establish natural gas projects of a size that can justify the costs involved with a liquefaction facility. The majority of gas volumes are sold to big, credit-worthy clients under lengthy take-or-pay contracts before first gas in order to ensure repayment.

Competitive Landscape
The major players operating in the floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) market are Chevron Corporation, Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co., Ltd, Equinor ASA, Excelerate Energy L.P., Exmar NV, Exxon Mobil Corporation, Golar LNG, Hoegh LNG Partners LP, Hyundai Heavy Industries Holdings Co Ltd, Lloyds Energy, Petroleo Brasileiro S.A, Royal Dutch Shell, Samsung Heavy Industries Co Ltd., TechnipFMC Plc, Total SE, Woodside Petroleum Ltd, . These major players operating in this market have adopted various strategies comprising M&A, investment in R&D, collaborations, partnerships, regional business expansion, and new product launch.

Recent Developments
