About this episode
William Dahmer, a former Alberta energy and commodity trader now living near Frankfurt, explains why German companies are interested in locking in multi-decade deals for Canadian LNG—even if not a single cargo from B.C. ever ends up anywhere near Germany. He takes us inside the surprisingly fluid world of global LNG trading, where carriers can be rerouted, cargoes resold, and long-term contracts used as insurance against wars, chokepoints, and volatile prices. And he explains why Canada can still come out ahead in this global game of arbitrage.
