Midwestern states like Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Michigan are important markets for natural gas producers in the Marcellus/Utica, as are states

The 14 refineries in Louisiana and two just over the state line in southern Arkansas account for almost one-fifth of total U.S. refining capacity

Many of the nation's largest hyperscalers now acknowledge this simple fact: The need to rapidly ramp up the availability of around-the-clock

Efforts to develop a new LNG export terminal along the Delaware River near Philadelphia appeared to be going nowhere. But now it seems that Penn America Energy’s moribund plan for such a project has gained new life with a new company name and a new site — in Eddystone Borough, PA.

There are several approaches hyperscalers can take to mitigate the climate-related impacts of their increasing gas consumption for data centers. These include buying and retiring environmental credits; capturing and sequestering gas-plant CO2; and developing more renewables and nuclear capacity.

Crude oil sourcing for the three refining regions in Louisiana couldn’t be more different from each other. In today’s RBN blog, we examine crude oil flows into and out of the Bayou State, assess supply/demand balances, and explore why is could be increasingly important to understand those balances.

Natural gas-fired generation is king in the realm of data center development, at least for the near term. Still, hyperscalers are taking a variety of steps to mitigate the climate impact of their expanding gas use. These include adding CCS, building renewables and supporting new nuclear.

It's unusual, to say the least, for an energy-industry acquisition valued at “only” $1.25 billion to be transformational.

Louisiana’s refineries process vast amounts of domestic crude oil — much of it from the offshore U.S. Gulf — and imported oil from Canada and other countries. The refineries also play a critically important role in supplying refined product to the Southeastern U.S and the Mid-Atlantic states.

The Haynesville is the nation’s #3 natural gas producer, and close to most of the U.S.’s LNG export capacity. That makes gas pipelines from the Haynesville to the Gulf Coast critically important — and valuable — assets, a reality Williams Cos. just affirmed with its plan to buy Momentum Midstream.
