Research and Markets: Oil and Gas Supply in the Asian Pacific - A 10-Year Projection and Review of Oil and Gas Production and Consumption in Asia Pacific

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/2432dc/oil_and_gas_supply) has announced the addition of the "Oil and Gas Supply - Asia Pacific (A 10-year projection and review of oil and gas production and consumption)" report to their offering.

“Oil and Gas Supply - Asia Pacific (A 10-year projection and review of oil and gas production and consumption)”

Having witnessed in 2008 the first major signal that future conventional oil and gas supplies will become much harder to find and more expensive to develop, Datamonitor is publishing this analysis of deep water production around the world. As secure energy supplies become increasingly difficult and expensive to extract, an accurate forecast of supply/demand dynamics becomes more important.

Historically, global economic recessions have led to declining energy demand, but the resultant lower prices have soon led to a recovery in demand and then prices, especially as OPEC has acted to rein in output to tighten supply. This trend has already been reflected in the oil markets to some degree. In the gas sector, supplies will be available only if investment in infrastructure, above all long-distance pipelines and LNG conversion and receiving plants, is well advanced.

Key findings and highlights:

• Chinese gas production is growing rapidly both onshore and offshore. Due to its large reserves of coal, China has only recently begun full exploitation of its gas reserves with new pipelines and exploration of gas-prone basins in the western interior and offshore.
• The Australian upstream gas industry is growing rapidly, with fields being developed throughout the North West Shelf to serve a growing indigenous pipeline market and an expanding LNG export capacity. Deep waters too are also providing Australia with long-term gas production growth.
• For several years, Indian gas production primarily came from the Mumbai high region where most fields are at peak production levels. However, new very large deep water discoveries to the east are being developed and these will lead to growing gas output.
