What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Baker Hughes signed two agreements with PDVSA to expand natural gas and energy infrastructure in Venezuela. The partnership also includes Lindsayca and Fulcrum LNG. Initially, the partners will identify infrastructure upgrades needed to meet PDVSA’s domestic gas requirements, including supplies for electricity generation. Over the longer term, the companies plan to evaluate financing for new midstream and LNG infrastructure, which could enable future LNG exports.
