From Singapore to the world: how EMLAP shapes ExxonMobil’s LNG future
Andy Elliott, President of ExxonMobil LNG Asia Pacific (EMLAP), highlights the company’s focus on long-term reliable LNG supply, new market opportunities, and industry partnerships.
What is EMLAP?
Our EMLAP team manages all activities for ExxonMobil’s global equity LNG portfolio – supply, sales & marketing, and trading, as well as related shipping and commercial operations. EMLAP was established operating from Singapore in 2018.
We have a globally diverse LNG Portfolio and are looking forward to the start-up of our Golden Pass LNG facility, located in Louisiana in the coming months. In addition, we are continuing to grow our LNG Portfolio, and recently, executed an LNG Sales and Purchase Agreement with Arc Resources for supply from the Cedar LNG project in Western Canada.
ExxonMobil LNG Asia Pacific encompasses much more than the name implies. While EMLAP operates from Asia Pacific, our footprint is truly global. EMLAP is responsible for ExxonMobil’s global equity LNG, as the mentioned North American LNG supplies illustrate.
Who from ExxonMobil LNG will be at Gastech 2025?
Representatives from our global affiliates will attend Gastech this year, including our team from Singapore and ExxonMobil’s London and Houston affiliate offices. Together, we cover ExxonMobil’s short term, medium and long term activities, so Gastech will be a fantastic opportunity to meet the team, and to discuss where there may be opportunities for ExxonMobil LNG to help support your LNG needs.
There’s no doubt that the LNG market has seen and continues to see volatility, but fundamentally, EMLAP’s approach hasn’t changed. EMLAP remains focused on ensuring long-term, stable and reliable LNG supply.

Despite uncertainty and amidst market volatility, EMLAP is always looking for new opportunities to support our partners and customers in various ways - from utilissing EMLAP’s global LNG portfolio to leveraging ExxonMobil’s broader expertise in areas such as LNG Market Development, LNG Terminal Operations, Shipping, Low Carbon Solutions and more. This is what allows EMLAP to provide a range of bespoke, flexible and creative solutions to support our counterparties.
What are you most looking forward to at Gastech 2025?
Face-to-face interactions with customers and business partners can be invaluable. I look forward to sharing meals with colleagues, meeting with business partners at our booth, and catching up with many of our global customers in person. Gastech will be a great opportunity to progress meaningful discussions in a way that simply cannot be accomplished in a virtual meeting room.
ExxonMobil will also be announcing the LNG Power Play Award winners at Gastech and I, along with the rest of the EMLAP team, can’t wait to see who this year’s Power Play Pioneer, Ambassador, Rising Star and Low Carbon Accelerator award winners will be. Seeing Power Play make a positive impact on our industry year after year, and the incredible candidates nominated, continues to be inspiring.
It's wonderful to be in Milan, and we’re looking forward to a great conference! Ciao!
