The Oxford Princeton Programme Announces a New Course in the Growing Liquefied Natural Gas Industry Responding to industry demand, the course focuses on industry concerns highlighting market choices, transportation methods, terminal access and capacity issues

PRINCETON, NJ (PRWEB) January 22, 2004 -- The Oxford Princeton Programme, the worlds leading provider of training solutions to the energy, commodity and derivatives industries, developed a new course titled, Global Liquefied Natural Gas -- The Complete Supply Chain. It explores the complete liquefied natural gas (LNG) cycle from initial strategic decisions about effective gas usage, to key customer markets and trading considerations. Delegates will also critically examine transportation methods, commercial and trading choices, terminal access and capacity issues, all significant issues that are challenging the present face of global LNG.

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) has traditionally been viewed as the way to move remote gas to markets where pipelines are not commercially feasible. Recent and growing trends in the USA, Europe and in Asia are causing this LNG marketplace to experience somewhat of a revolution and to become much less predictable," explains Leigh Bolton, energy director of Consensia Limited. Todays worldwide LNG market is fundamentally changing with fresh demands on all players, more market choices and contracts becoming less rigidly fixed to the long-term. Many past LNG conferences and courses concerned key technical and engineering LNG requirements but the spotlight must now be seen to be firmly on the new commercial and trading imperatives for LNG to meet the demands of the differing regional World gas markets."

Co-presenters, Eric Harrison and Leigh Bolton are active consultants in the energy industry and bring over 50 years of combined worldwide gas and power experience. Both are directors of Consensia Limited, an international energy and environmental consulting company.

The importance of LNG in the energy industry has been assuming a higher significance in the marketplace," comments Clara Lippert, president of The Oxford Princeton Programme. Responding to this industry trend, Global Liquefied Natural Gas -- The Complete Supply Chain demonstrates The Oxford Princeton Programmes commitment to continually providing the most up-to-date knowledge possible."

Global LNG -- The Complete Supply Chain is a five-day intensive course; part of The Oxford Princeton Programmes Gold level training. The first scheduled date will be June 28 -- July 2, 2004 in Oxford, UK.
