Introduction
The high oil price has encouraged an increasing use of natural gas to
produce energy. Another reason for this increase relates to the fact that
natural gas is considered as a cleaner energy resource compared to oil.
Before 1964, pipeline systems were the main means of transporting
natural gas, but with systems the gas cannot be traded over long
distances. In 1964 the situation changed with the start-up of the
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) trade between Algeria and France
(Hashimoto et al. 2004). Since then, gas is traded over long distances as
LNG using special cryogenic vessels. Even so, there is no global market
for LNG and LNG is mainly being traded within two Basins, i.e. the
Atlantic Basin and the Pacific Basin.
Currently, both Basins have different pricing systems and different
contractual terms, but this is changing, since LNG buyers are searching
for more flexibility in their LNG contracts, e.g. by opening up
possibilities to divert LNG ships and signing short-term contracts.
Similarly, LNG exporters are investigating opportunities of more
flexibility for the benefit of shaping their energy policies or/and better
market conditions. One exporting country where this development takes
