PAGE 9RWE Supply & Trading … whereas the global LNG-Market is currently turning due to reductions in LNG demand in Asia 2009 LNG recession in Asia? 2007/2008 LNG boom in Asia Strong Asia demand draws record LNG imports in '07 Fri Jan 25, 2008 NEW YORK, Jan 25 (Reuters) - Strong Asian demand for liquefied natural gas, primarily from Japan, China and India, drove LNG imports in the region to record high levels last year, according to a Houston- based consulting firm. Asian LNG imports overall increased by a whopping 480 bcf (billion cubic feet, or 10 million tonnes), a record-setting import year. There was growth across the board for all importing countries in Asia," Waterborne Energy, which monitors the global flow of liquefied gases, said in a report this week. For all of 2007, total Asian LNG imports hit a record million tonnes, up 10 percent from 2006, according to Waterborne Energy data. TEPCO Jan fuel use falls; nuke rate up, demand down Fri Feb 13, 2009 TOKYO, Feb 13 (Reuters) - Thermal power consumption at Japan's Tokyo Electric Power Co (TEPCO) fell in January from a year earlier, as a higher monthly nuclear run rate and weakening energy demand dented fossil fuel use. The use of fuel oil, crude oil, liquefied natural gas (LNG) and coal all dropped below the previous year's level, the company said in a statement on Friday, falling for the fourth straight month. Japan Jan industrial output falls 10 pct mth/mth Fri Feb 27, 2009 Japan's industrial output fell 10.0 percent in January from the previous month, government data showed on Friday, posting the biggest drop on record and in line with a median market forecast.
