Cheniere

Barclays Capital analysts on Tuesday raised their Henry Hub natural gas price forecasts for the final six months on lower-than-expected storage back-up and the accelerated startup of two Gulf Coast gas export projects by Cheniere Energy Inc.

Cheniere Energy Inc.-backed Midship Pipeline Co. LLC on Monday was given the green light by FERC to build its long-awaited 1.44 Bcf/d natural gas pipeline that would move supply from the prolific Anadarko Basin to the Gulf Coast for potential export.

Cheniere Energy Inc. has snapped up another natural gas export contract with Taiwan’s state-owned oil and gas company.

Strong operational performance and “robust and durable” market pricing for global liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargoes helped Cheniere Energy Inc. steer its broad Gulf Coast export platform during the second quarter, CEO Jack Fusco said Thursday.

In a sign that the liquefied natural gas (LNG) market is moving toward becoming a standalone component of the global energy mix, global derivatives marketplace leader CME Group and liquefaction/export pioneer Cheniere Energy Inc. announced on Tuesday an agreement through which CME Group will develop a Henry Hub-indexed LNG futures contract with physical delivery to the Sabine Pass terminal on the U.S. Gulf Coast.

CPC Corp., Taiwan’s state-owned producer of oil, natural gas and gasoline, announced Monday that it has reached a preliminary deal to purchase liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Cheniere Energy Inc. under a 25-year sale and purchase agreement (SPA).

Liquefied natural gas exporters have a smorgasbord of options to offer buyers as the global market expands, but one thing is clear: it’s no longer only for long-term buyers.

FERC on Thursday issued a final environmental impact statement (EIS) for the Cheniere Energy Inc.-backed Midcontinent Supply Header Interstate Pipeline (MIDSHIP) Project, putting the 1.44 Bcf/d Anadarko Basin-to-Gulf Coast transmission project a step closer to authorization.

The liquefied natural gas (LNG) trade climbed to 38.2 Bcf/d worldwide last year, nearly 10% higher than in 2016 and the largest annual increase on record, according to the International Group of Liquefied Natural Gas Importers (GIIGNL).
