As ADI discussed recently in Trends shaping the U.S. midstream outlook, rising LNG exports, growing power demand from AI data centers, and continued oil and gas production growth are driving a new wave of midstream investment. Much of the industry’s recent focus has been on relieving Permian gas takeaway constraints through projects such as Kinder Morgan’s […]

On October 26, 2026, EQT Corporation agreed to buy Range Resources, both Appalachian gas producers, in an all-stock deal valued at $13.84 billion. The combined company produces over 9 billion cubic feet of gas equivalent per day (Bcfe/d), the most of any U.S. gas producer. ADI Analytics’ analysis of how this might impact the outlook […]

Water now sets operating limits in three industries ADI covers. Permian produced water volumes rose from 11.2 million bbl/d in 2017 to 24.9 million bbl/d in 2025, and regulators have restricted the disposal wells that take most of it. Refineries and chemical plants on the Texas Gulf Coast and the Rhine face allocation plans and […]

I recently had the opportunity to share ADI’s latest research on the U.S. midstream oil and gas industry at the 10th Annual OCTG & Line Pipe Forecast Summit. My presentation explored how oil and gas production growth, LNG export expansion, and increasing power demand are driving a new wave of midstream investment. As illustrated in […]

Global sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) prices came under significant pressure in October 2026, with the European SAF premium reportedly falling to a 20-month low. The decline reflects three key factors: Exhibit 1. SAF project pipeline by region and development status since 2021 In the ninety-fifth edition of ADI’s biweekly SAF newsletter, SAF Tracker, ADI explores […]

In the October 2026 edition of the ADI Chemicals Newsletter, ADI examines how HF Sinclair, BP, and Saudi Aramco are shifting toward industrial, thermal-management, and specialty-fluid applications as engine-oil demand growth slows. Recent M&A includes Nippon Paint Holdings’ agreement to acquire AkzoNobel’s decorative paints business in Southeast Asia and Oceania, alongside Heidelberg Materials’ and CRH’s […]

ADI’s SAF Tracker highlights momentum across the SAF value chain, with Uniper signing a long-term eSAF offtake agreement with Arcadia eFuels and Phelan Green reaching FID on its planned eSAF project in South Africa. Bayer and Neste finalized an agreement to scale winter canola production as a dedicated SAF and RD feedstock, while Infinium launched […]

The European Union (EU) Methane Regulation is known for its strict methane emissions transparency requirements for foreign oil and gas imports, and has driven methane emissions monitoring and reporting efforts, especially among oil and gas players serving the EU market. Under Article 28 of the EU Methane Regulation, importers are required to demonstrate that fossil […]

Gas-to-grid infrastructure has received limited attention amid rapid growth in data-center power demand. Pipelines, storage, fuel delivery, generation, and grid connections determine when new load can receive reliable power.  ADI Analytics and Energy Conference Network launched the inaugural Gas to Grid Summit to examine this part of the value chain. Participants included midstream operators Williams […]

In the October 2026 edition of the ADI Newsletter, ADI examines whether the U.S. could stop exporting diesel as President Trump considers a ban amid Russia and Middle East disruptions that have cut refining capacity and pushed diesel prices higher. Public opinion on data centers is also shifting as AI-driven electricity demand raises concerns about […]
