## Resource

NGI’s Jacob Dick, senior editor of LNG, sits down with Charif Souki, co-founder of Cheniere Energy Inc. and a pioneer of the U.S. LNG industry, to discuss how the critical transformation of the U.S. natural gas industry that turned the country into the world’s largest LNG exporter is reshaping global markets. Souki examines how the shale revolution, technological advances and massive resource discoveries transformed U.S. production and unlocked decades of low-cost supply. He also notes that LNG demand has created new challenges for producers, who now depend on export markets as physical gas consumption has ballooned to unprecedented levels. He also outlines how evolving economics, higher construction costs and shifting contract structures are pushing LNG developers toward more merchant-style risk. Looking forward, Souki says ongoing technological breakthroughs, especially deeper drilling and improved productivity, continue to expand U.S. resource potential and would shape the next era of LNG growth.
