Abstract
The Covid-19 pandemic that the whole world is experiencing is unprecedented and so are the consequences that the economy will have to face in the crisis aftermath. But what we’re also witnessing is a re-shaping of the world as we knew it, because with its devastating impact on most of the productive sectors, on transport, on environment, on finance and social habits, the Covid-19 crisis is acting as a stopper or an accelerator of several pre-existing trends and issues. What will be the impact on gas markets? Which trends and which markets will re-surface even stronger after the crisis and why? Will oil and gas companies, already challenged by low gas prices before the crisis, be definitely killed by the Corona virus? Will all of this translate into better or worse opportunities to meet the climate targets?
