The CWC LNG Innovation Asia Pacific Award is awarded to a company operating in the Asia Pacific LNG industry that has excelled themselves in the previous 12 months in terms of commercial or technical innovation. The winner must be an active member of the LNG industry in the Asia Pacific region.

Selection of the award candidates will be based upon the company that has made a positive commercial or technical contribution to the LNG business over the last year in one or more of the following areas:

• Innovation – through technical or commercial innovation, the organisation which has made a positive change to the industry in the Asia Pacific region
  
• Activities – through activities, the organisation which has made an outstanding contribution to the industry and shown itself to be an industry leader in any specific part of the LNG chain in the Asia Pacific region
  
• Knowledge – through development of people, the organisation that has expanded knowledge and learning within commercial or technical aspects of the LNG industry in the Asia Pacific region

In 2013, the honour was awarded to Singapore LNG (SLNG) and the Energy Market Authority of Singapore (EMA). 

On receiving the award, Mr Neil McGregor, the former CEO of SLNG stated: “It is indeed an unexpected honour for SLNG, and I believe for EMA as well, to have been selected by our industry peers to receive this Award. The development of the Singapore LNG Terminal, from conceptualization to commencing commercial operations, has been an incredible journey and when we look back on what has been achieved, it is not just a piece of infrastructure that we’ve created but an unfolding story of the future of the LNG trade in Singapore and this region”.

The largest buyers of LNG in Asia are represented at the conference, along with investors, distributors and suppliers. Details about the award, speakers, the program or registration can be found at http://asiapacific.cwclng.com.
