NATURAL GAS
U.S. Natural Gas Jumps to 14-Year High - U.S. natural gas futures jumped about 7% to a 14-year high on Tuesday on soaring global gas prices, a drop in daily U.S. output, a heat wave in California and forecasts for more hot weather and higher air conditioning demand in late August than previously expected. Front-month gas futures rose 60.1 cents, or 6.9%, to settle at $9.329 per million British thermal units, their highest close since early August 2008. (Reuters)
LNG
Marathon Gets More Time to Build LNG Import Project in Alaska - Marathon Petroleum Corporation's (NYSE:MPC) (Findlay, Ohio) Trans-Foreland Pipeline Company unit received more time to convert the Kenai liquefied natural gas (LNG) export plant in Alaska into an import terminal, U.S. energy regulators said on Tuesday. The U.S. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) approved Trans-Foreland's request for an extension to complete the project until December 2025. FERC first approved Trans-Foreland's request to build the plant in December 2020 and gave the company until December 2022 to place it into service.
