Monte Carlo Valuation of Natural Gas Investments
This paper deals with the valuation of energy assets related to natural gas. In particular, we evaluate a baseload Natural Gas Combined Cycle (NGCC) power plant and an ancillary instalation, namely a Lique ed Natural Gas (LNG) facility, in a realistic setting; speci cally, these investments enjoy a long useful life but require some non-negligible time to build. Then we focus on the valuation of...
متن کاملReal Options Valuation: a Monte Carlo Approach
This paper provides a new approach for valuing a wide set of capital budgeting problems with many embedded real options dependent on many state variables and a related valuation algorithm based on Monte Carlo simulation. The valuation approach decomposes of a complex real option problem with many options into a set of simple options, but taking into account deviations from value additivity due ...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Valuation of American Options
This paper introduces a dual way to price American options, based on simulating the paths of the option payoff, and of a judiciously chosen Lagrangian martingale. Taking the pathwise maximum of the payoff less the martingale provides an upper bound for the price of the option, and this bound is sharp for the optimal choice of Lagrangian martingale. As a first exploration of this method, four ex...
متن کاملGas Storage Valuation: A Comparative Simulation Study
The purpose of this paper is the comparative analysis of four natural gas storage valuation ap proaches. In competitive natural gas markets the optimal valuation and operation of natural gas stor ages is a key task for natural gas companies operating storages. Within this paper, four spot based valuation approaches are analyzed regarding computational time and accuracy. In particular, explicit ...
متن کاملMethod of Moments Using Monte Carlo Simulation
We present a computational approach to the method of moments using Monte Carlo simulation. Simple algebraic identities are used so that all computations can be performed directly using simulation draws and computation of the derivative of the log-likelihood. We present a simple implementation using the Newton-Raphson algorithm, with the understanding that other optimization methods may be used ...
