輸送と発電での利用拡大が市場成長を促進
小規模LNG市場は継続的な成長を遂げています。輸送と発電における小規模LNGの利用が増加していることが、小規模LNGの売上を増加させている主要要因の一つです。大型トラック、採掘トラック、フリート車などの高馬力車両輸送用途では、ディーゼルに代わるものとしてLNGへの嗜好が変化しています。さらに、原油価格の上昇と排出ガス削減への懸念が市場の成長を後押ししています。さらに、LNGの利用が増加していることは、車両の燃料費とメンテナンス費用の削減に役立っています。これに加えて、LNGは安価な供給源であるため、発電セグメントでも広く利用されています。
本レポートでは、市場構造、主要企業による市場シェア、主要企業の市況分析、主要成功戦略、競合ダッシュボード、企業評価象限などの競合分析を行っています。また、主要企業の詳細プロファイルも掲載しています。市場は少数の地域と国際的な参入企業によってコントロールされているため、市場構造は適度に断片化されています。価格に敏感なバイヤー、厳しい政府規制、高額な設備投資により、新規参入者の数は少ないです。また、LNGの価格と品質で差別化を図っているため、製品の差別化も進んでいないです。
小規模LNGとは?
小規模液化天然ガス(LNG)とは、従来の再ガス化やその後のガス送電網への採用のプロセスとは異なり、LNGを液体のまま直接利用することを指します。大規模LNGに比べ、建設期間が短く、資本支出(CAPEX)、投資回収期間が短縮されます。石油・ディーゼルに比べて二酸化炭素やその他の有害ガスを排出しないため、環境に優しいです。遠隔地の工業団地や住宅団地におけるオフグリッド発電のニーズに対応するために広く利用されています。小規模LNGはまた、世界中の発電、産業用原料、輸送活動にも応用されています。
COVID-19パンデミックの発生は、小規模LNG産業に深刻な問題を引き起こし、多くの国に前例のない課題を課しました。各国の政府機関が施錠や外出禁止令を出したため、小規模LNGの生産が一時停止しました。エネルギー需要の大幅かつ急激な減少を引き起こし、この業界の参入企業は、当時の生産閉鎖により莫大な損失を被った。さらに、パンデミックは小規模LNGの流通を制限し、トラック運転手の不足を生み出しました。このため、当事者間の契約は延期またはキャンセルされ、生産者は安全上の懸念から新規プロジェクトの建設を遅らせていました。加えて、パンデミックによる経済・産業活動の急激な落ち込みによるエネルギー需要の減少、原油価格の急激な暴落による小規模LNG価格の急落があった。このほか、業界は需要の減少、価格の低迷、貯蔵量の高止まり、プロジェクトの実行可能性や供給削減に対する懸念の高まりに苦しんでいた。また、小規模LNG業界における生産停止やサプライチェーンの問題により、プロジェクトに対する様々な投資決定がかつてないほど低下しました。
現在、世界中の大衆の間でエネルギー効率が高く費用対効果の高いエネルギー源に対する需要が高まっていることが、市場の成長を支える重要な要因の一つとなっています。これに加えて、ディーゼル燃料の代替燃料として運輸部門で小規模LNGの利用が拡大していることも、市場の展望を明るいものにしています。さらに、安価で効率的であることから、発電セグメントでの小規模LNGの利用が増加していることも、市場の成長を後押ししています。これとは別に、小規模浮体式LNG施設の改良が進み、ガスの生産、液化、貯蔵、移送といった工程が海上で行われ、運搬船が市場に直接出荷するようになったことが、業界の投資家に有利な成長機会を提供しています。さらに、各国の政府機関は、有害ガスの排出を削減するための厳しい規則や規制を世界中で実施することで、LNGの採用を奨励しており、これが市場の成長に寄与しています。また、海洋バンカリングにおける小規模LNGの需要の高まりは、市場にプラスの影響を与えています。さらに、環境汚染に対する個人の意識の高まりによる小規模LNGの需要の増加が、市場の成長を強化しています。

What is Small-Scale LNG?
Small-scale liquefied natural gas (LNG) refers to the direct use of LNG in its liquid form as compared to the traditional process of regasification and subsequent introduction into the gas transmission grid. It has shorter construction timelines, reduced capital expenditure (CAPEX), and payoff periods as compared to large-scale LNG. It is environment-friendly as it does not emit carbon dioxide or other harmful gases compared to oil and diesel. It is widely utilized in addressing off-grid power generation needs in remote industrial and residential complexes. Small-scale LNG also finds applications in power generation, industrial feedstock, and transportation activities across the globe.
The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak caused a severe problem for the small-scale LNG industry and imposed unprecedented challenges on numerous countries. It paused the production of small-scale LNG due to lockdowns and curfews imposed by the governing agencies of various countries. It caused a huge and sudden reduction in energy demand and the players in this industry suffered huge losses due to the closure of production at that time. Moreover, the pandemic has restricted the distribution of small-scale LNG and created a shortage of truck drivers. This caused postponed or canceled contracts between the parties and the producers were delaying the construction of new projects due to safety concerns. In addition, there was a reduced energy demand due to the steep decline in economic and industrial activities caused by the pandemic and the sudden decline in small-scale LNG prices due to the rapid oil price crash. Besides this, the industry was suffering a downward demand, low prices, high storage levels, and increased concerns over the viability of projects and supply cuts. Various investment decisions for projects were also witnessed unprecedented drops due to the halted production and supply chain problems in the small-scale LNG industry.
At present, the rising demand for energy-efficient and cost-effective energy sources among the masses worldwide represents one of the key factors supporting the growth of the market. Besides this, the growing utilization of small-scale LNG in the transportation sector as an alternative to diesel fuel is offering a positive market outlook. Additionally, the increasing utilization of small-scale LNG in the power generation sector, as it is inexpensive and efficient, is propelling the growth of the market. Apart from this, rising improvements in small-scale floating LNG facilities wherein the process of gas is carried out at sea, such as production, liquefaction, storage, and transfer, before carriers ship it directly to markets is offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. Moreover, governing agencies of various countries are encouraging the adoption of LNG by implementing stringent rules and regulations to lower emissions of harmful gases across the globe, which is contributing to the growth of the market. In addition, the growing demand for small-scale LNG in marine bunkering is positively influencing the market. Furthermore, the rising demand for small-scale LNG due to the increasing awareness among individuals about environmental pollution is strengthening the market growth.
