초록

Tensions have been rising between the EU and Russia over natural gas. EU is striving to reduce its dependence on Russian gas. Reverse pipeline within EU, Production of its own shale gas and Construction of alternative gas pipeline are not enough for EU to replace Russian gas due to the lack of institutional support and economic feasibility. However, the import of shale gas from the United States which recently improved export conditions for non-FTA countries, including EU, can be a realistic alternative for Russian gas. The possible scale of gas exports to Europe is expected to exceed EU's current imports from Russia. As, nowadays, the Asia's premium gas price is disappearing, the price competitiveness of the European gas market is recovering, and at the same time EU is accelerating construction of LNG import infrastructure. So, around 2020 year EU will be able to significantly reduce its reliance on Russian gas. Korea government and businesses also need to prepare for the short and long-term change of status of Russian natural gas in the European market and actively take advantage of it.
