Gas supply to be stable through April: ministerStaff writer, with CNAMinister of Economic Affairs Kung Ming-hsin (龔明鑫) today said that Taiwan's natural gas supply would be sufficient through next month, as the nation has secured almost all the necessary shipments to replenish inventories. Taiwan's supply for this month and next requires 22 liquefied natural gas (LNG) shipments, Kung told reporters. A liquefied natural gas tanker is tugged toward a thermal power station in Futtsu, east of Tokyo, on Nov. 13, 2017. He also dismissed rumors that Taiwan could face a natural gas shortage, saying: "That is impossible." Taiwan has a diversified natural gas supply, with about one-third coming from Qatar and the remaining 60 to 70 percent sourced from elsewhere, he said, adding that the overall supply structure is sound.
