Abstract

This paper investigates the determinants of China's LNG price dynamics from a supply-demand perspective using monthly data. Employing a Vector Autoregression (VAR) model. We analyze the interrelationships among four key variables: the return of China’s LNG import price, the return of Brent crude oil price, the year-on-year change in European natural gas reserves, and the year-on-year change in China’s natural gas import. Impulse response analysis indicates that the impact of Brent crude oil price shock on the price of liquefied natural gas in China is relatively small and lasts for a short time. The impact of LNG import has a certain positive promoting effect on prices in the short term. The shock of natural gas reserves in Europe has shown a slight but persistent negative impact.
