LNG

It has been a volatile spring and summer for global natural gas markets as the war in Iran has dragged on, seemingly causing prices to jump — or falter — with every headline. Today, we discuss Europe’s gas storage woes and the potential ramifications as its time runs out to refill inventories.

Over the past 16 years, BP has undergone multiple restructurings of its upstream portfolio, interrupted by a shift to — and then from — one of the sector’s most ambitious energy transition strategies. Today, we chronicle the evolution of one of the industry’s most significant integrated companies.

The U.S. energy industry is continuously evolving. Unlike the previous era of unconventional supply growth, demand is increasingly determining where capital will be deployed, reshaping investment priorities. That’s today’s subject and the focus of our upcoming School of Energy: Foundations.

Efforts to develop a new LNG export terminal along the Delaware River near Philadelphia appeared to be going nowhere. But now it seems that Penn America Energy’s moribund plan for such a project has gained new life with a new company name and a new site — in Eddystone Borough, PA.

It’s been quite a year already, with energy markets roiled by the Iran war. To survive such swings, you need a deep understanding of market fundamentals so that you can anticipate their effects. That’s today’s subject and the focus of our upcoming School of Energy: Foundations. 

Three new U.S. LNG projects have reached a positive final investment decision this year: Venture Global’s CP2 Phase 2, Caturus’s Commonwealth LNG, and now, most recently, Delfin Midstream’s Delfin LNG, which will be the U.S.’s first floating LNG project. 

The early signs of a rebound can be seen in Venezuela, where crude oil production and exports are on the rise, although plenty of unknowns remain. Today, we look at how much Venezuelan crude is reaching the U.S., how the U.S. import slate has changed, and preview our latest Drill Down Report.

The U.S. is at the tail end of an incredible wave of LNG expansion that has so far seen nine new projects across seven terminals reach a final investment decision in a little over a year. Today, we take a closer look at the Commonwealth LNG project and what comes next for U.S. LNG development.
