Table 1 provides a ‘key takeaway’ summary to webinar coverage of the LNG market impact of Europe’s pivot from Russian gas to LNG.

Takeaway	Driver	Impact
1. Europe driving market	Europe aggressively competing with Asia for constrained supply until at least 2025	Demand response replaces European flex as key driver of marginal prices
2. Flex inhibited	High prices & policy mandates acting to materially inhibit European flex provision	Demand response replaces European flex as key driver of marginal prices
3.Price volatility	Reduced market flexibility & major collateral/liquidity constraints	Structurally higher price volatility & shifting correlations
4. Tight market 2022-25	New regas capacity but limited new supply	New regime market conditions drive value & risk; liquidity & collateral challenges remain
5. Risks increase 2025+	Demand uncertainty & supply response increase uncertainty 2025+ (further regime change?)	Portfolio construction & contracting strategies key for value creation & risk management

Table 2 covers key takeaways on the LNG portfolio impact of market regime change.

Takeaway	Description
1. Game changer	– New market regime causing seismic shifts in LNG portfolio value… creating opportunities & risks
2. Portfolio construction	– Market transition in 2022 is triggering major strategic reviews across LNG companies – Conditions rich with opportunities to deploy capital, invest in assets and aggregate portfolios – As important as capturing value from the current regime is being prepared for the next one (e.g. Chinese SPA activity)
2. Portfolio construction	– Market transition in 2022 is triggering major strategic reviews across LNG companies – Conditions rich with opportunities to deploy capital, invest in assets and aggregate portfolios – As important as capturing value from the current regime is being prepared for the next one (e.g. Chinese SPA activity)
3. Value management	– High prices & volatility drive importance of dynamic management of interdependent exposures – Within portfolio value capture key (high margins vs poor liquidity); large incumbent advantage – Price signals driving relative values of flex (e.g. towards diversion flex, away from US cancellations)
4. Prompt optimisation	– Higher proportion of value monetised via optimisation within year (+ liquidity / logistical constraints)
5. Risk management	– New regime = step change in portfolio risk; credit/collateral issues require active management – Capabilities drive advantage (e.g. team, analytics, systems, data)
