In many cases, the market price agreement is sufficiently established that market participants are not willing to deviate from it and financiers may feel that a market is sufficiently proven to be willing to take a certain price risk. For example, financiers may accept gas and LNG price risks for projects (compared to traditional market indices such as LNG, Henry Hub, S-Curve, Brent or JCC), but they may seek some comfort in terms of volume reduction. As a general rule, enterprise agreements are negotiated after a feasibility study has been completed and before the construction of mines; they help assure producers that there is a market for the equipment they want to produce. This is an advantage for a number of reasons – it clearly means that the mining company does not have to worry about being able to sell its metal. Buyers will also sometimes make money available to producers to advance their mining projects if a money loss contract is entered into. But that`s not always the case. In addition, given the arrival of new and less established buyers, we have seen how the LNG reduction market has shifted in advance towards credit support, such as letters of credit or mother guarantees, rather than relying on contractual provisions allowing a seller to require credit support in the event of a negative counterparty event. In most LNG sales and sales contracts, the seller has the right to suspend the benefit in the event of a late payment or when a creditor or guarantee is not provided within the required time frame. During the suspension period, the buyer is generally considered late and the seller is free to sell the product that would otherwise have been withdrawn by the buyer. This will preserve the seller`s source of income and claim damages for any losses incurred by the buyer. Finally, if companies want to be integrated into the supply chain and wish to have exclusive production over a longer or shorter period, the acquisition agreement remains the strategic financing of projects that corresponds to their priorities.

Of course, this type of contract can also be beneficial for buyers. Taketake agreements allow buyers to acquire metal production at a specified price. This can be used as a hedge against future price changes if demand outweighs supply. The terms of a taketake contract also ensure that buyers receive the tonnes of the product they buy at a given time.
