According to the growing trend of the LNG markets in recent years, Iran can play an important role in the global LNG markets due to its significant reserves of Natural Gas, geopolitics and access to international waters. In this study, first global LNG markets and its future are studied. Then, the effective factors and driving forces on the future of LNG in Iran are determined by various studies. By using the Cross Impact Method (CIM) with the help of MICMAC software, the driving forces are analyzed, and the important driving forces in the future of LNG in Iran are determined. Finally, using ScenarioWizard, scenarios for the future of LNG in Iran are developed. As a result, this study concludes the future of LNG in Iran, using the "Back to the boom", "An opening to hope", "Ambiguous fate" and "Decline neighborhood" scenarios.Finally, considering the above scenarios, the importance of LNG industry, and Iran's conditions in this area, recommendations will be provided in this regard.
