LNG

Cheniere Energy, the largest US LNG exporter from two plants at Sabine Pass in Louisiana and Corpus Christi in Texas, shipped 637 cargoes last year and the company's registered annual net profits jumped more than six-fold due to very positive changes in the derivatives portfolio, though Cheniere forecasts showed that revenue-based earnings were likely heading for a decline in the coming year.

Chart Industries, the US LNG storage, fuel and liquefaction equipment-maker, had its highest orders intake of 2020 in June and for the second quarter there were record sales in LNG vehicle tanks and filling stations as it looked forward to a boost in railcar business.
