Deepwater, LNG infrastructure to drive Africa’s next energy expansion cycle

(World Oil) – Africa’s next energy growth cycle will be driven less by new discoveries and more by the ability to build infrastructure, expand LNG capacity and monetize existing reserves, according to analysts participating in the State of African Energy 2026 Outlook webinar hosted by the African Energy Chamber (AEC) and S&P Global.  Speakers throughout the webinar emphasized that deepwater developments, LNG infrastructure and

Why Mississippi still has no LNG export terminal, and why that may change

(Oil & Gas 360) By Greg Barnett, MBA – Texas has LNG export terminals. Louisiana has many. The United States is now the world’s largest exporter of liquefied natural gas. Mississippi, despite its Gulf Coast location and long history with energy infrastructure, has none. At first glance, that absence appears anomalous. Mississippi sits between two LNG powerhouses, has access to major

US exporters are plugging a Qatar-sized LNG supply hole – for now: Maguire

(BOE Report) – U.S. LNG exporters have so far offset the drop in shipments from Qatar following Iranian attacks on its facilities and the closure of key Middle East shipping lanes, ensuring that total supplies remain at record highs despite the war. The on-again, off-again peace talks with Iran mean that the repair of damaged Qatari liquefied natural gas export

Louisiana LNG: The quiet comeback driving global gas markets

(By Oil & Gas 360) – Louisiana didn’t just participate in the U.S. natural gas boom. It built the export engine that turned it global. A decade after the first cargo left Sabine Pass, the state is once again at the center of a new phase, one that looks less like a cyclical recovery and more like a structural resurgence of

LNG exports: Policy versus the market in America’s gas superpower era

(Oil & Gas 360) By Greg Barnett, MBA – For most of the modern energy era, the United States was viewed as a permanent importer of natural gas. That assumption collapsed in 2016, when LNG cargo Asia Vision departed Louisiana’s Sabine Pass terminal, marking the first large‑scale export of shale‑era U.S. natural gas. In less than a decade, the United States

Eurasia’s gas puzzle- oil and gas 360

Eurasia’s gas puzzle

(By Oil & Gas 360) – Eurasia holds some of the largest natural gas resources in the world. The challenge has never been geology; it’s been access. From Russia’s vast reserves to Central Asia’s underdeveloped basins and the emerging potential of the Caspian and Eastern Mediterranean, Eurasia is rich in gas. Yet much of that supply remains constrained by infrastructure, geopolitics, and
