Over the past decade, CEDIGAZ has been
publishing a number of specific reports covering various aspects
of the gas industry, focusing either on world-wide developments
(LNG trade, underground natural gas storage facilities, planned
gas pipelines, gas use in power generation, natural gas and deregulation)
or regional areas (European gas trade by pipelines, European gas
market players).
Some of these surveys have been updated on a
regular basis. You’ll find hereunder the most recent ones.
