Industry: Natural gas & LNG

For U.S. energy infrastructure developers—whether building a new natural gas pipeline, expanding a refined products line, or allocating renewable power capacity—the Open-Season Request for Proposals (RFP) is the critical mechanism for securing long-term customer commitments. It’s a structured, non-discriminatory process essential for demonstrating market need, unlocking financing, and gaining regulatory approval from bodies like the Federal Energy […]

The October 2025 edition of the ADI Newsletter highlighted major trends shaping energy and industrials. At Gastech Milan, discussions with key leaders such as U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright and U.S. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum underscored how natural gas and LNG are entering a new phase of sustained growth driven by energy security and rising […]

This was an exciting week as ADI Analytics was honored to host U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum at our exhibit at Gastech 2025 in Milan. Secretary Wright showed keen interest when our conversation shifted from gas and LNG to produced water management—a topic likely close to his past life leading […]

Last week, the annual Digitalization in Oil & Gas conference rolled into Houston, and I was grateful for the opportunity to speak at this always-excellent event hosted by our friends at the Energy Conference Network. The panel was charged to talk about building a digital-ready workforce, and I prepared by summarizing ADI Analytics’ consulting and research […]

Global LNG capacity grew by more than 20 million tons per annum (mtpa) from 2023 through mid-2025. North America, including the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, accounted for about 65% of this new capacity. Additionally, 2 mtpa of this capacity came from floating terminals and ~11 mtpa from terminals with small-scale, modular LNG trains (each less […]

In the September 2025 edition of the ADI Newsletter, we highlight new oil and gas exploration in Africa as a driving force behind reshaping the continent’s energy landscape. A long-term growth supercycle for natural gas and LNG has become central to global energy strategies, influenced by AI growth, energy security, and economic shifts. Additionally, the […]

The U.S. LNG export capacity growth stagnated over the past couple years due to delays caused by market volatility, labor shortages, and regulatory uncertainty. Now, the supportive stance of the Trump Administration and growing global gas demand are expected to bolster the U.S. LNG sector through 2030. U.S. LNG export capacity reached a little over […]

In the August 2025 edition of the ADI Newsletter, U.S. shale expertise is highlighted as a driving force behind global growth in unconventional oil and gas. Natural gas and LNG have become central to energy strategies worldwide, influenced by AI, data centers, energy security, and reshoring. Moreover, the plastics industry is rapidly evolving toward sustainability […]

Panuswee Dwivedi, Project Manager, represented ADI Analytics at the Gastech Exhibition and Conference from September 9-12, 2025, in Milan, Italy. Gastech is a premier event for natural gas, LNG, hydrogen, and low-carbon solutions. She joined the Texas delegation at the Texas Pavilion, where we had a booth, to discuss the latest trends and insights across […]

As the global oil and gas industry adapts to slower demand growth and increasing pressure to decarbonize, Africa is quietly reasserting itself as a frontier for upstream exploration. As seen in Exhibit 1, oil reserves in Africa have been concentrated in a few producers, particularly Libya, Nigeria, and Algeria. Exhibit 1. Oil reserves by the […]

The oil & gas and chemical industries are at an inflection point. For years, growth was a given, but a new era, one characterized by a structural decline in capital and operational spending, is starting to take shape. Recent trends of slowing oil demand growth, oversupplied markets, and shrinking chemical margins as shown in exhibit […]

Before the 2024 U.S. presidential election, ADI published an article analyzing the potential shifts in U.S. energy markets and policy under a second Trump administration. We noted that, in his second term, President Trump might ease some methane emissions regulations. Fast forward to today, President Trump signed a joint Congressional resolution repealing the Waste Emissions Charge (WEC) […]
