LNG production and ton-mile

• LNG production down y-o-y in 2012. First time in 30 years

• Despite lower LNG production ton-mile demand marginally increased

• Angola production now expected start in Q2, but still some uncertainty

• LNG production was the problem in 2012, not demand

Summary Market • Short term market – will depend on LNG production

− Angola startup is important

− Disruption in production remains a factor

− Tonnage surplus is thin and could change rapidly with few new buildings until very end of 2013

− 1st + 2nd generation vessels more exposed to fluctuations in production

• Long term fundamentals - remains firm

− Gas demand is increasing and expected to outpace any other fossil fuel

− Liquefaction capacity is set for growth

- 90 MTPA under construction

- 90 – 120 MTPA potential FID expected in 2013 /2014

- Trading distances expected to increase in phase with US export

- Uncertainties linked to timing of newbuildings deliveries vs. new production capacity
