  • Italy’s Edison was last week told by Venture Global that first contract cargoes from its Calcasieu Pass LNG, Louisiana export facility would not be available until April 2025 at the earliest.
  • LNG floating storage has fallen back below levels seen this time last year but remains above normal ahead of the upcoming winter heating season.
  • Global LNG demand fell 5% in the week to Oct. 13 to 7.37m mt with a decline in Southern Asia, Europe and the Americas only partly offset by a rebound in the JKCT region imports, BNEF said.
  • EU ministers met on Tuesday morning to discuss the regions rising LNG imports from Russia and Ukrainian energy storage ahead of winter.
  • Russian gas deliveries to the EU have been significantly higher than long-term contracts should see delivered, the bloc’s energy commissioner told a news conference said Oct. 15.
  • Gas supplies from Libya’s Mellitah complex to Italy will be materially reduced and could gradually decline to zero during planned maintenance, according to ENI.
