Uniper’s chief commercial officer Carsten Poppinga has brushed off concerns about Germany’s overreliance on US LNG imports. “We are not dealing with an administration; we are dealing with companies operating in a certain system, and I have confidence in that system,” he told Reuters on the sidelines of the LNG2026 conference in Doha.
Venture Global CEO Mike Sabel strives to get two LNG expansions – Calcasieu Pass 2 and Plaquemines – come to market before 2030. Financial close for the $18 billion brownfield expansion at Plaquemines is targeted for mid-2027, followed by first LNG some 18 to 24 months afterwards.
