LNG
Project financing raised by JP Morgan will enable YPF and its partners Eni and ADNOC’s XRG to launch Phase 2 of Argentina LNG, boosting production to 18 mtpa by 2030–2031.
The Gorgon Phase 3 project aims to counter declining reservoir pressure to sustain gas supplies to Western Australia’s domestic market and support LNG exports to Asia.
By resuming work on the Rovuma LNG project, ExxonMobil tees up a final investment decision expected in 2026 as East Africa’s LNG hub begins to take shape with three separate projects now in construction.

Douglas Westwoods' world FLNG market forecast for the period 2016-2022. A stormy ride is expected for the LNG industry, as the fall in natural gas prices limits investment in capital-intensive liquefaction projects.
-
Approximately 5% of world annual gas production is being flared or vented. This is equivalent to approximately 110–140 billion m3 (Bcm) of gas, and equates to the combined gas consumption of Central and South America in 2013.
-
Achieving production and availability targets is paramount to the ultimate success of any liquefied-natural-gas (LNG) project. Both are important factors in any life-cycle economic analysis.
-
Despite the currently deteriorating oil and gas prices, natural gas, the “least carbon-intensive” fossil fuel, is still projected by ExxonMobil, the International Energy Agency, and other sources to grow by 65% from 2010 to 2040
