International
Gas Union session at LNG14
Posted: 18 March 2004
The LNG 14 Conference and Exhibition opens in Doha on the 21 March
These LNG Conferences, held every three years, are the biggest
Events of their kind organised by the Gas Industry itself, and LNG
14 experiences right now a record high Registration of more than
2500 Participants and an Exhibition of 14.000 m2 net, which is 40
per cent higher than last time at LNG 13 in 2001. All of this is
stressing the steadily increasing importance and Market share of
LNG in the World's Gas Market.
LNG 14, featuring both the technological, the economic and the
political development of the LNG in-dustry, will tell you why this
is so.
These LNG Conferences are organised by three main sponsors: Gas
Technology Institute of USA, In-ternational Institute of Refrigeration
in Paris and by International Gas Union (IGU), the latter being
heading the Steering Committee for the Conference.
IGU is profiting from LNG 14 by holding its Spring Session "back
to back" with this Conference.
Right after LNG 14 the IGU Executive Committee, consisting of some
twenty high-echelon Gas Ex-ecutives from around the world, is meeting
under the leadership of the IGU President, Mr. George H.B. Verberg,
President and CEO of Gasunie in The Netherlands to discuss the affairs
of the Union.
Qatar Petroleum has gracefully offered to host this IGU Spring
Session. As a special part of this Session IGU is also organising
an Executive Meeting on LNG's Role in the Global Gas Market in the
afternoon of March 26 in hotel Sheraton, Doha.
The Qatari Minister of Energy and other high Officials from Qatar's
Government and energy Industry have been specially invited to attend
this event.
Apart from summing up the main results of LNG 14, the meeting will
feature both perspectives of the LNG Exporter represented by the
hosts from Qatar and the perspectives of the importers, represented
by Mr. Yukata Kunigo from Tokyo Gas Ltd in Japan and by Mr. Michael
Stoppard from the Cambridge Energy Research Associates (CERA) in
USA.
