Liquified natural gas exporters could profit most from war with Iran

Liquified natural gas exporters could profit most from war with Iran

With Iranian strikes shutting down natural gas terminals in the Persian Gulf, U.S. natural gas exporters like Venture Global and Cheniere are seeing their stock price jump. Qatar, one of the world’s top exporters of liquified natural gas (LNG), on Wednesday fully shut down its facilities used to liquify gas, with a restart expected to take week, according to Reuters.

New York environmental regulators seek dismissal of Constitution Pipeline

In a Feb. 20 filing, the agency said that a 2022 appeals court decision requires the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to dismiss a request to approve the 124-mile Constitution Pipeline that would move gas from Pennsylvania to markets in New York and New England. The department argued that FERC should dismiss the project now argued that FERC should dismiss the project now, “rather than requiring the Department and the other parties to engage in yet another round of wasteful administrative review over Constitution’s petition.”

Trump makes misleading energy claims in his State of the Union address

This week, President Donald Trump made misleading claims about record natural gas and oil production at his second State of the Union address of his second administration. Trump has experienced the same upward trend of rising domestic oil and gas production that started around 2005-2007 with the “shale revolution” of expanded hydraulic fracturing and rose sharply under former presidents Obama and Biden.

California sues Trump Administration for pulling $1.2 billion in hydrogen funds

California sues Trump Administration for pulling $1.2 billion in hydrogen funds

The state challenged the administration's removal of funds for the Alliance for Renewable Clean Hydrogen Energy System, according to a Wednesday news release. The proposal involves building out a system of hydrogen production facilities, fueling stations, and end users, such as transit systems. It involved blending hydrogen with natural gas at power plants before an eventual transition to "100% clean hydrogen," according to a Department of Energy factsheet.

Public comment period open on gas-fired power plant expansion in northeast Texas The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality is accepting comments until at least March 11 on a draft initial air construction permit for an expansion of Rayburn Energy Station in Grayson County, north of Dallas-Fort Worth. The project would entail building 10 additional gas turbines at the facility that could cumulatively generate 570 megawatts of electricity. If built, the expansion project could emit over 1.9 million tons of greenhouse gases and 800 tons of health-harming criteria air pollutants every year.

Oil export terminal off Texas coast gets federal approval

The Trump Administration has authorized the Texas GulfLink oil export project off the coast of Brazoria County, southeast of Houston. The Maritime Administration on Feb. 3 issued a license for the deepwater port, capable of exporting 1 million barrels of crude oil per day, supplied by 50 miles of pipelines. The EPA had in September approved an air permit for the facility, which has faced opposition from residents and local elected officials.

Trump Administration guts EPA’s role in reducing tailpipe emissions

A recent end to EPA’s “endangerment finding,” the scientific determination that a rapidly warming climate requires the EPA to step in to protect human health, leaves the U.S. without effective fuel economy standards on the books, experts told the New York Times. Transportation is the U.S.’s largest source of greenhouse gas emissions that are worsening droughts, heatwaves, floods, and sea level rise.

New oil and gas lease sale in the Gulf of Mexico to be held in March

New oil and gas lease sale in the Gulf of Mexico to be held in March

On March 11, 2026, over 80 million acres of the outer continental shelf in the Gulf of Mexico will be available for an oil and gas lease sale, according to E&E News. More oil and gas lease sales are expected in the Gulf of Mexico; the One Big Beautiful Bill Act requires 30 lease sales in the Gulf before the end of 2040. The act also requires six auctions in Alaska’s Cook Inlet. In December 2025, a lease sale in the Gulf of Mexico auctioned off 80 million acres in federal waters and saw 30 companies submit more than 200 bids for oil and gas production.

On March 18, BLM will hold an oil and gas lease sale for about 5.5 million acres within the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska. This is the first sale in the area established by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which requires BLM to hold at least five lease sales, each covering at least 4 million acres in Alaska’s National Petroleum Reserve by 2035. Oil and gas activities in the reserve jeopardize the livelihoods of indigenous people in the area and threaten Arctic species, according to a report by The Wilderness Society.

Data from MethaneSAT, the Environmental Defense Fund’s methane-detecting satellite, shows that major oil and gas operations are underreporting methane emissions in official inventories. According to MethaneSAT’s data, methane emissions were 50 percent higher on average compared to official estimates, like those recorded in the U.S. EPA’s Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory.
