SLB's and Baker Hughes' partnerships with NVIDIA and Google Cloud, respectively, will develop advanced AI-enabled power optimization and sustainability solutions for the global data center sector.
The rise in China’s gas production, now exceeding that of Qatar and of Australia, is also limiting growth in its LNG demand.
TotalEnergies will instead invest in the Rio Grande LNG plant, upstream conventional oil development in the US Gulf of Mexico, and shale-gas production.
