Qatar cuts gas prices to keep competition at bay - Yahoo!7

Qatar cuts gas prices to keep competition at bay - Yahoo!7:

"Qatar is sweetening its gas sales pitch to lock-in long-term Asian buyers before a wave of new suppliers from the United States, Australia, and east Africa snatch market share and deflate prices.

Up to now, importers like Japan and South Korea have had few major supply alternatives to the tiny Gulf state, whose liquefied natural gas exports represent about a third of global supply.

But in a growing market for LNG, gas condensed for shipment to markets pipeline supplies do not reach, nearly 30 million tonnes a year (mtpa) of U.S. gas is already sold to Asia."
