As the U.S. continues to experience a surge in natural gas demand, particularly through liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports, the oil and gas industry is seeing some significant changes. According to recent data from LSEG (formerly Refinitiv), natural gas flowing to U.S. LNG export plants is expected to reach a 10-month high. This growth is mainly driven by increased demand for natural gas overseas, as countries look to secure more reliable and cleaner energy sources. With this, the U.S. has maintained its position as the world’s top LNG exporter, surpassing Qatar and Australia.
