Market Overview:
The global LNG-FSRU market is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for LNG as a fuel source and the growing popularity of FSRUs as an alternative to traditional LNG carriers. The global LNG-FSRU market is segmented on the basis of type, application, and region. On the basis of type, the market is segmented into retrofit and new. The retrofit segment is expected to account for a larger share of the global LNG-FSRU market than the new segment duringthe forecast period from 2018to 2030. This can be attributedtothe high installation costs associated withnew FSRUsand their longer gestation periods compared with retrofitted FSRUs.

Product Definition:
LNG-FSRU is a floating storage and regasification unit for liquefied natural gas (LNG). It is a vessel that receives LNG from tankers, stores the LNG, and then converts it back to natural gas for distribution. The importance of LNG-FSRU is that it provides a way to store and distribute large quantities of natural gas. This can be helpful in times of high demand or when there are disruptions in the supply of natural gas.
Retrofit:
Retrofit is a term used in the energy sector for referring to the replacement of an existing plant or facility with a new one that has been modified to deliver a specific output. In LNG-FSRU market, retrofit refers to modification of Existing Large Gas Turbine (ELGT) power plants for producing low carbon emission gas turbine power using clean coal technology and natural gas as fuel.
New:
The New is a new generation of gas turbine, which has higher thermal efficiency and lower emission than the conventional gas turbines. The major advantage of using this product is that it can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 80% when compared with the current average coal-based power plant.
This product also provides high fuel flexibility, as it can run on various types of fuels including natural gas, biogas and even liquid hydrogen.
Application Insights:
Inland transportation application dominated the global LNG-FSRU market in 2017, accounting for over 60% of the overall revenue share. The segment is projected to witness significant growth on account of increasing demand for natural gas as a fuel in trucks and buses across various regions including North America and Europe. In addition, growing FSRU production capacity in U.S., Australia, Brazil and China is expected to drive the product demand over the forecast period.
The outer river transportation application segment was valued at USD 1,227.3 million in 2017 owing to rising use of LNG as an alternative fuel source in large vessels such as oil barges and chemical tankers on account of its cleaner combustion quality when compared with other fossil fuels such as diesel or gasolineoil.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global LNG-FSRU market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this region can be attributed to increasing demand for natural gas as a fuel in China, India, South Korea, and Japan. Moreover, rising infrastructure development along with growing industrialization is projected to drive regional product demand over the next eight years.
The Asia Pacific was followed by North America which accounted for 24% of total market share in terms of revenue in 2017 owing to increased inland transportation projects coupled with retrofit activities across major countries such as U.S., Canada, Mexico on account of stringent government norms regarding carbon emission into atmosphere resulting into need for cleaner fuels such as natural gasoil/fuel oil products which are anticipated to augment regional growth during the forecast period.
Europe also held a significant share due to increasing focus towards reducing dependency on other fossil fuels such as petroleum.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for LNG as a cleaner fuel source compared to other traditional fuels sources such as diesel and heavy fuel oil.
- FSRUs provide a more flexible and cost effective option for smaller scale or isolated LNG import projects, when compared to traditional onshore liquefaction terminals.
- The global fleet of FSRUs is expected to grow over the next decade, which will help meet the increasing demand for LNG-FSRU services.
- Regulatory changes in certain countries are supporting the development of the LNG-FSRU market, such as in India where there is an increase in import tariffs on traditional fuels sources like diesel and heavy fuel oil .
