LNG gets too hot for Asia at $26, but India keeps buying

Asian LNG demand is projected to decrease this year, with Northeast Asia seeing the largest drop. India and Bangladesh continue to secure spot LNG cargoes despite significant price increases. High fuel costs are impacting energy-intensive industries in China, reducing their output. India's city gas and fertilizer sectors will predominantly support its LNG demand. Global supply recovery and Europe's inventory needs will influence future LNG prices.
