Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is increasingly seen as one of several catalysts to the energy transition. As countries seek to reach their decarbonization goals, they will have to go beyond switching from coal to natural gas-fired power generation, and explore carbon-efficient options across all energy demand segments. Many countries around the world are now seeing […]

Interest in the energy transition is growing rapidly and investments are following that interest closely as well. Carbon credits and their pricing will, however, play a critical role in paving the pathways for these projects.

The U.S. renewable diesel demand is currently fulfilled by limited domestic production (~26,000 bpd) and increasing imports from Singapore.
