that l. n g conversion plants are usually li placed close to the sources of l n g. and as we look at the possibility of l n g plants on the east coast able to ship directly to germany, we find ourselves a long way from the gas fields in western canada. it's doable. we have infrastructure around that. but we're looking very much at how we can best help. and right now our best capacity is to continue to contribute to the global market, to displace gas that then an energy that then germany and europe can, can locate from other sources. but we are looking at every possible different way to help out the german people and europeans in the short term as they face a real challenge this coming winter and next, as, as russia continues to squeeze off gas supply. asked question good morning, steve. chase globe male: i want to follow up on my colleagues questions, and my 1st question is for mr. shadow by invite the chancellor to answer as well. and given everything you've been saying about l n g, i'd like t

i offer madison to know didn't make publicly any promises about l. n g. but said he would take a look at the possibility. we are in a situation in the short term where we will do what we can to contribute to the global supply of energy by increasing our capacities in the short term and explore ways to see if it makes sense to export l n g. and if there's a business case for it to export l n g directly to europe, and that's something that economic conversations going on between businesses in canada and in, in germany. that's bringing. leon is vicky natural gas analyst at research consultancy energy aspects. welcome to w leon. so the canadian prime minister, very politely there say if there is the business case for it. will these ellen g deliveries from canada to germany ever happened? i think at the moment with prices on the european benchmark, the tgf at around 250 years. and what are, there's definitely a business case for really any export her off natural gas to try and ramp or production and to export any available supplies into the european market. bu

those in favor of shipping more an l. n g to germany. does that sound more feasible? do i think what, what this means is that it's, it's a miracle reshuffling of supply in the global balance. but when you look at the overall total amount of supply that is available for any gas consumer in the world, re on the, on the global scale, it means that the overall pool of gas is still unchanged. there's still the same amount of gas that is available for everyone in the world. it's the same size of the pie. so when you're looking at maybe an increasing efficiency in that, you might see canadian canadian producing export is focusing more in asia freeing up short or travel times for an n g facilities in the east coast of the united states to deliver something into the european market. but the overall amount of liquefaction capacity in the world is still the same and that won't help europe to actually size of the increase. it's allen g imports in the, in the short medium leon, briefly, if you could, how do you view the government's attempts? the german government attempts to secu

and copper, but also l n g. but even then canada can't provide for some years l n g. i wanted to take that up so turned out was asked when will canada deliver alan ged germany and how much? he said he was looking for the business case to do so. what does he mean by that? exactly. ah, that means he's not convinced he should do it. there's something i'll admit as the expert here, i wrote some articles on germany's real now in g policy. about 4 or 5 years ago in 2018 when the previous coalition decided in its initial treaty under merkel, that they would fund and support elegy import terminals in northern germany, which were purely for liquid for transportation. but it never happened. and during that time, one thing they did is they said they were gonna contribute to half a $1000000.00 in canada on the coast for building a facility that would export it l n g. nothing ever happened afterwards. it was, it died. and here, there again, bringing it up in canada, according to trudeau, seemingly isn't yet committed. so it doesn't sound like you think germany said count on canadi

guess the other thing is that l n g is harmful to the environment. so energy security in this case, trump's environmental concerns. of course, i think that will be an interesting issue for the, for the 2 journals, n g o already have raise concerns. in particular for every location that means the, the construction may face some resistance from and why mental n g o. so we'll see how that will come out. there is an energy passing law in germany that shows improved to overcome these resistance. but of course we still have, we are in a legal state. that means we have of course, we have legal means to achieve ties. the center is one issue, and 2nd is of course everything that is related to the fucking gas because most of the energy that will come to germany will come from the us. but as things for the time being that there will be no really discussion about trucking. yes, i think if i still have city seconds, i would have some one additional point because there is one additional surprise source in europe. are there one or 2? this is indigenous production in

and if there's a business case for it to export l, n g directly to europe, and that's something that economic conversation is going on between businesses in canada and in, in germany. let's bring in leon as mickey natural gas analyst at research consultancy energy aspects. welcome to w leon. so the canadian prime minister, very politely, they're saying if there is the business case for it, will these ellen g deliveries from canada to germany ever happen? i think at the moment with prices on the european benchmark, the t t f at around 250 years and what all are, there's definitely a business case for really any export of natural gas to try and run for production and to export any available supplies into the european market, but that is something that is not really going to help europe in the case of canada . in the short term, you're looking at a lack of liquefaction capacity and terminals at canada's east coast on the west coast. when you're looking at this, which means that in the, in the media short term and also the medium term, there's not really any significant way for canada to

what is the certificate of l n. g gas from canada in which is would this be helpful or is the focus very clearly on green hydrogen? now canada is a major oil and gas producer in the world. but because of our commitment to fight climate change, we are working very, very hard to de carbonized and develop other sources of energy that we can rely on. and that we can share with the world. what russia's invasion of ukraine has done as 2 impacts. one in the on the global energy situation, in the short term. it has made it imperative that friends and allies of canada like germany and europe reduce their reliance on russian oil and gas. but in the medium and long term it means the world needs to accelerate it.

as you say, it's perhaps not as monolithic, the l n compared to the fox. so can we see a situation where there is a deal that is made with the government, but you still have are the more extreme elements of continuing that the activities and possibly putting any agreement in risk? that's correct, and it's, it's hard to see if they can actually agree on something is going to last some time is going to take some time to actually have the dialogue. and the government has the support of certain countries such as judah and norway, which are trying to help this agreement to be delivered some, some good results. but there are risks that the, the entire group, the entire members, all the members are not following the instructions of those, of the leaders of the group. so it's hard to say how they can actually sort of compromise themselves to an entire piece deal. and let's remember that a style bedroom has sort of promised total bees, but this is very difficult to reach and he has only started governing colombia. he has a lot of promises to fulfill and there's a l

it, if we have a hard winter in the northern hemisphere, that effects asian l. n. g demand will be in competition with asia to try and secure the available, flexible, and n g. the simply not enough flexible energy to cover the gap. so where does all of this leave? the use plans to ultimately win itself off? russian gas. while it's going to take time there's, there's no question about that at the back to back story here is that the global gas mark is exceedingly tight. and european union is, is wanting to pivot away from pipeline gas to rely on, on, on seaborne liquefied natural gas. and the market there is going to be tight, probably the next 2 or 3 years at least. and therefore, this is not going to be an easy thing to do and it's going to come at a very high cost. so driving down demand is, is a critical element and truck, but trying to find alternative supplies is going to take time. other options for nations in warmer climes, southern parts of europe to share a spare capacity with, with nations in the north. there are problems here with the gas pipeline network

the north 31 gas pipeline to germany, starts in puerto via and, and u l. n. g plant has been built at the site. satellite data collected by a norwegian energy consultancy suggests that the so called flaring of gases taking place here at unusual levels. we observed that russia has been wearing ever since july 11th of mid july, which coincides with the maintenance that occurred or began on one. but interestingly, flaring actually continued despite the powerful operations being resumed, one or 21 back in late july, russia has reduced gas exports to europe, leaving it with a large surplus of gas. that could be one explanation for the burn off. experts said at western sanctions could also be to blame. they say flaring might be a sign of russia lacking the proper equipment to operate. the facility bearing does come at a cost for both economically and environmentally. there's a loss associated with wearing, obviously, because you're burning off those valuable products that could otherwise be sold. so i would say flaring isn't, you know, it is only done if necessary.

because most of the l. n g, or most of the gas projects are on the west coast of canada. and by the way, a number of them involve fracking, which has been questioned in canada as well as internationally to get that gas from the west coast to the east coast of canada. where it could then go out to a country, an importer, like germany, would require a major pipeline. and there is some debate in canada about whether the costs of constructing such a pipeline are justified. given that this would essentially be a transitional project because canada is very determined to move away from fossil fuels toward net 0. therefore questions about whether the investment cost can be recouped. and that's why candidate itself has been stressing that it's interested in doing some hydrogen diplomacy, but not necessarily ellen g. then the grand d w's. chief political correspondent, belinda, thank and out of some of the other global business stories, making news. human is exports to non e u countries, so 7.6 percent in july. that according to new government figures published earlier today, the d

but in the last days we're at that we will never get a l n g from from kata. so there are a lot of promises also when it, when it comes true to the welfare situation here in germany, you will never lose or walk alone. no one will be left behind that, that are very big words, but how to pay it, didn't the chancellor answer this so morning is especially considering we could be sitting here alone in a very cold winter. oh what, what would be the, the solution? what would be the right paths to take right now? it is very important time. i'm trying to support ukraine and trying to keep the german economy and germans happy. so he's, he's of course, a fully concentrate in keeping his coalition together. that's fair enough. that's the job he has to do as chancellor. he's completely concentrated on the domestic situation here in germany. but in that very situation, europe is out there is some leadership need it. and if you look after european leadership, it's always the question. well, not only on paris, but also on, on berlin, to go forward. and that was, was what the

almost only play a role when it comes to helping germany get through this winter by delivering more l n g a through it's west coast into the u. s. and to the asian market because of course, that would help bring the gas price on the international market down. and that in turn would benefit gemini as well. lebanon's, devastating explosion of 20 twenties, still wreaking havoc at bay road. 8 grains silos have collapsed as a result of damage sustained in the bloss. it's the 3rd such collapse this month. the sailors had been to stabilize the after absorbing the impact of the port explosion caused by negligently stored ammonium nitrate fertilizer. more than $200.00 people died, a correspondent was, simon is in beirut and told us more about the situation an emotional day here in bay to with after the northern part of the made with port, silas collapse this morning. right behind me, families of the victims of the made with 40 exclusion are blocking the road facing debated for it to pressure the government to quickly implement strategies to reinforce the remaining southern part of the made with

, where the river barges come up from europe's biggest harbor rotterdam, carrying goods like coal, l, n, g, and building materials. the shipping lanes, which we can see here in the middle of the river, right, are just still possible. but what we can see, of course, if we look at one of those barges that they are hardly loaded at all, they carry it only up to assert off normal goods. they're riding really high out of the water here. this is one of the tank or is of course, that probably can just take it tiny amount of what it usually carries. so this shows a very clearly that shipping here is going to run out in a couple of days. it may be towards the next weekend because the water is the what is going down by the day the river is drying out. now if we look to the other side of the river there over there, the nice little beaches they are not supposed to be there, people enjoy them. but that is really where normally the river is and where the water is. so this situation here shows clearly that the drought and all over europe has consequences even here in europe's biggest is shippable rive

there is a crisis of the price of imported oil and imported gas, particularly liquefied natural gas l n g. the reason for the high prices is 2 fold. one is the economy of the world recovering from coverage. the we should cement the world to live with us to terrible downturn and quite apart from the health issue and no revival, but combined, combined with a wall and ukraine. the sanctions which are being put in place by western countries so called the so called collective west to idle eye. and this is had a disastrous effect on on price frances national news agency has been slammed on social media for allegedly supporting fascism and trying to whitewash kids sympathy for near nasty groups. that comes off to a recent twitter post by the a f p. a post describing the ukranian president call for evacuation of civilian from the don bus region was accompanied by photo that included a coffin with a wolf angel displayed prominently. the whole single was the omelette of various german naughty military units during world war 2, and is still in use globally by far white booths today. many people ha
