(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
(By Oil & Gas 360) – If oil built the global energy system, LNG is quietly rewriting it. The rise of liquefied natural gas is doing more than adding supply, it is transforming how energy moves across regions. Unlike pipeline gas, LNG creates a flexible, global market where cargoes can shift in response to price, demand, and geopolitical conditions. At
(Oil & Gas 360) – The Middle East remains the center of gravity in global energy, but it is no longer viewed as a stable foundation. It is now both the system’s anchor and its primary fault line. No other region combines scale, cost advantage, and spare capacity the way the Middle East does. Saudi Arabia and the UAE continue
(Investing) – SINGAPORE/LONDON – The first full day of a U.S. blockade on vessels calling at Iranian ports made little difference to Strait of Hormuz traffic on Tuesday, with at least eight ships including three Iran-linked tankers, crossing the waterway, shipping data showed. U.S. President Donald Trump announced the blockade on Sunday after weekend peace talks in Islamabad between the U.S.
(Oil & Gas 360) – – Energy Advisors’ latest review covering Seven Top U.S. Resource Plays points to a broader shift underway in shale. Gas-weighted basins are starting to re-accelerate driven by LNG and power demand, while oil plays are increasingly driven by capital discipline and inventory depth. These plays—Appalachia, Haynesville, Permian (Delaware and Midland), Bakken, Eagle Ford, and SCOOP/STACK—now make up
(Investing) – Wall Street analysts are mixed on U.S. natural gas outlook as near-term price weakness is expected to be offset by strong long-term demand growth driven by liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports and rising power needs globally. Natural gas prices have declined sharply in recent months, with benchmark Henry Hub prices down about 28% year-to-date, as a mild end to
(BOE Report) – QatarEnergy has yet to update its liquefied natural gas (LNG) customers on the impacts of recent attacks on its gas plants, Edison CEO Nicola Monti said on Tuesday. Monti said a pause in LNG supply until mid-June, which QatarEnergy notified the Italian utility of last week, was mainly due to the shipping blockade in the Strait of
(By Oil & Gas 360) – Energy markets are no longer reacting to a single narrative. This week, prices moved amid geopolitical escalation, policy signals, and shifting supply expectations. While oil briefly surged on Middle East tensions, it also pulled back on commentary pointing to potential downside. Beneath the volatility, a more important trend is taking hold: global energy flows
(By Oil & Gas 360) – The global energy narrative is shifting. What began as an oil-driven crisis is quickly evolving into a gas problem—and in many regions, a more immediate one. Disruptions to LNG flows from the Middle East are tightening global supply just as demand remains elevated across Asia and Europe. With Qatar’s export capacity constrained, gas markets
(Oil Price) – In just over a year, the world saw several instances of a choked supply of commodities indispensable for today’s economies and military capabilities. From China’s restrictions on rare earths and critical minerals supply to the de facto closure of the Strait of Hormuz, policymakers and analysts began to realize that the control of oil, critical minerals, rare earths,
(World Oil) – You just can’t take 8-to-10 MMbpd off the market, and 20% of LNG supply, and not expect instability,” ConocoPhillips Chairman and CEO Ryan Lance said on Tuesday at CERAWeek by S&P Global, underscoring the scale of the current supply shock hitting global energy markets. Speaking in a leadership dialogue with S&P Global Vice Chairman Daniel Yergin, Lance said that current turmoil
(World Oil) – TotalEnergies has agreed to relinquish its U.S. offshore wind leases under a settlement with the Department of the Interior, redirecting capital toward LNG, gas production and export infrastructure. The company will exit the Carolina Long Bay and New York Bight leases, both awarded in 2022, effectively ending its offshore wind development plans in the United States. Under the agreement,
