Abaxx Technologies' LNG Futures See Increased Trading Activity
Abaxx Technologies Inc. (CBOE:ABXX) is seeing a notable surge in trading activity within its LNG futures contracts, specifically in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM FOB) and North Pacific-Asia (NPA DAP) markets. This growth illustrates Abaxx's strategic positioning in the evolving landscape of energy trading. Over the recent weeks, trading volume has shown a remarkable increase, reflecting the rising interest in these contracts.
Record Trading Volumes in LNG Futures
In an impressive demonstration of market dynamics, the NPA DAP Futures achieved a trading volume of 690 lots as of the week ending October 17, 2025. Meanwhile, GOM FOB Futures experienced a significant rise to 2,394 lots. The overall LNG trading volume surged by over 80 percent from one month to the next, with expectations that momentum will continue to build as more participants engage in the market.
Overall Performance and Market Impact
Since the inception of these futures contracts, Abaxx has facilitated a total trading volume of 14,042 lots, translating to approximately 140,420,000 MMBtu or an impressive $1.6 billion USD in notional value. This amount equates to around 40 LNG cargoes, signaling substantial trader confidence and participation in the market. Notably, the Abaxx suite of LNG futures, comprising GOM FOB, NPA DAP, and Northwest Europe (NWE) DAP contracts, covers over 80 percent of global LNG import capacity, thereby providing critical market signals.
Strategic Advantages for Market Participants
According to Joe Raia, Chief Commercial Officer at Abaxx Exchange, these LNG contracts offer commercial entities a robust method for managing regional price exposures more effectively. The introduction of physically deliverable futures across both Atlantic and Pacific basins enables LNG traders to safeguard against delivered cargo risks while enhancing price discovery across their supply chains.
Future-Focused LNG Benchmarks
Since the launch of Abaxx's LNG benchmarks in mid-2024, the company has aimed to bridge gaps in market design and assist traders in navigating delivered cargo exposure efficiently. These benchmarks are structured to meet the distinct needs of energy market participants, thereby fostering a healthier trading ecosystem.
Operational Specifics of Contract Trading
Each LNG future contract is denominated in USD and consists of 10,000 MMBtu. The GOM Futures contract operates on an FOB basis, while the NPA and NWE contracts are based on a DAP format respective to their delivery regions. Trading is accessible from 1000 to 2400 Singapore time, Monday through Friday, providing flexibility for market participants to engage at various times throughout the day.
