The JSON dictionary is the result of a successful request to the Access API endpoint. The dictionary contains the associated costs and assumptions for 160 TFDE vessels and/or 174 2-stroke vessels for each LNG Terminal available, for each Delivery Month. Costs can be returned in either USD/MMBtu or in Eur/Mwh, for a given month, vessel size and terminal.
