The "Great Game" of Gas: Geopolitics and New Technologies
Alberto Belladonna

23 febbraio 2020

Of all fossil fuels, natural gas is experiencing the largest growth worldwide. At the same time, tech innovations are making the extraction and transportation of natural gas easier, cheaper and more efficient. These trends are already transforming the global energy landscape and soon, analysts say, natural gas might be at the core of the transition towards a carbon neutral economy. Is natural gas about to become a game changer in international relations? Who are the main players in the “great game of gas”? What are their interests and ambitions? And what impact is the surge of natural gas going to have on global geopolitics and economic trends?

  

Actors and Geopolitics

From the shale gas revolution in the United States to the geopolitical role of Russian pipelines in supplying both the European Union and China. From the new gas discoveries in Africa and the eastern Mediterranean to the rising tensions behind the exploitation in the Middle East. A complex, tangled and crowded game for the forthcoming future.
