THE NEW GEOPOLITICS OF NATURAL GAS - AGNIA GRIG...

We are in the midst of an energy revolution  led by the United States. As the world s greatest
producer of natural gas moves aggressively to expand its exports of liquefied natural gas (LNG)
America stands poised to become an energy superpower an unanticipated development with
far-reaching implications for the international order. Agnia Grigas drills deep into today s
gas markets to uncover the forces and trends transforming the geopolitics of gas. The boom in
shale gas production in the United States  the growth of global LNG trade  and the buildup of
gas transport infrastructure worldwide have so transformed the traditional markets that natural
gas appears to be on the verge of becoming a true global commodity. Traditional suppliers like
Russia  whose energy-poor neighbors were dependent upon its gas exports and pipelines  are
feeling the foundations of the old order shifting beneath their feet. Grigas examines how this
new reality is rewriting the conventional rules of intercontinental gas trade and realigning
strategic relations among the United States  the European Union  Russia  China  and beyond.
