Abstract

No matter where the gas is supplied from and where its destination is, the entire process, within the context of the natural gas business, should be managed in a coherent manner. This chapter thus starts by giving an overview of natural gas and its place as a viable source of future energy as well as providing information on the business elements of it. Moreover, the related legal framework of gas contract intends to give a better insight and knowledge when it comes to contract negotiation. After all we have to sell the gas once it has been produced. The chapter continues to give information on project evaluation, investment appraisal, teamworking, economic efficiency, gas chain and pricing of the gas.
