QatarEnergy’s Recent LNG Contracts to Europe May Have Natgas Index

LNG

QatarEnergy’s recently signed long-term contracts for European deliveries are likely to have included European natural gas hubs as part of the pricing index, according to Platts.

  • This would be a change from QatarEnergy’s more typical Brent crude oil indexes for their long-term supply contracts.
  • According to Platts, based on information from market sources, the recent contracts signed with ENI, Shell, and Total are likely based on a hybrid pricing formula, which would include a natural gas component.
  • Market participants also inferred from QatarEnergy's press that the contracts with European majors are likely to have destination restrictions.
  • However, Platts said that not all sources agreed, with some still believing the contracts to be brent linked with a single destination. Others thought TTF could be used as a floor in the pricing formula.
