Thai firms chase LNG deals as worldwide prices decline

National oil and gas conglomerate PTT Plc, the state-owned Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (Egat) and SET-listed Gulf Energy Development Plc are among the firms pursuing agreements that will secure LNG supplies for years to come.

Officials say the next few years will be critical as a surge in global LNG supply is expected to drive prices down.

Gas remains a key fuel for Thailand’s power generation, but domestic supply is shrinking.
