“Qatar Energy’s latest long-term contracts for delivery to Europe included a component of exposure to Europe’s natural gas hub prices, market sources said, signaling an evolution in pricing mechanism for long-term deals. Register Now Market sources said it was a sign that dynamics in the European LNG markets were evolving, and more closely linked to natural gas hub pricing than crude oil pricing, leading to the inclusion of natural gas hub prices in a long-term contract pricing formula. A source familiar with the matter said Europe and Asia were increasingly using different pricing bases for LNG in long-term contracts rather than just oil-linked long-term contracts that typically use Brent crude oil indexes.”

“Egypt started curbing vital natural gas supplies to some energy-intensive industries, a sign of the widening economic impact the Israel-Hamas war is having on a country already facing power cuts due to fuel shortages. The government’s gas flow reduction to industry is temporary and hasn’t impacted production yet, according to two people familiar with the situation. Even so, fertilizer companies have seen supplies reduced by 30%, one of the people said.”

“The 2023 state of the energy union report was published on 24 October 2023.
