A ‘comparison’ feature is available under the Market Analysis and Liquefaction dashboards in Lens Gas & LNG which allows you can compare datasets across different Wood Mackenzie outlooks.
Select the 'comparison' option at the top of the dashboard and filter to a specific region to compare forecasts. You have the ability to compare up to four forecasts at a time. In this example we will compare the latest forecast against the previous forecast for European Gas Supply.
The above chart shows that gas production in the Strategic planning outlook from April 2026 has been downgraded between 2029 and 2040, before coming together again for the rest of the forecast period. To understand this change in more detail you can read the full report related to the forecast you have selected, for example, Europe Gas Strategic Planning Outlook April 2026.
To streamline the process of viewing the difference between the cases, you can switch the data from Absolute to Delta by using the quick selectors, and the chart and underlying data table will update.
The map view will also show the changes between the outlooks in the pie clusters. To view this, you can open the 'Layers' in the bottom right of the screen and select 'Gas & LNG Markets Comparison'. You can amend/filter the layer by clicking on the arrow.
You can select the metric to view, the year and choose to group by super region, region or country.
