Baker Hughes Wins Venture Global Orders for Plaquemines LNG Expansion

โดย Insider Monkey·US·Read original
Summary · why it matters

Baker Hughes Company and Venture Global, Inc. are expanding their collaboration through a new set of equipment orders tied to Venture Global's LNG growth plans. Under the award, Baker Hughes will provide 13 gas compression systems for Venture Global's Cloud Connector Pipeline project in Louisiana, along with four liquefaction blocks containing eight liquefaction modules to support additional LNG production capacity at the Plaquemines LNG facility. Venture Global, described as America's second-largest LNG exporter, has been working to increase the capacity of Plaquemines LNG to 58 million metric tons per annum, and the Cloud Connector Pipeline is an important part of that expansion strategy because the added capacity requires reliable access to natural gas supplies. Venture Global CEO Mike Sabel said Baker Hughes has been a trusted partner across the company's LNG developments, while Baker Hughes Chairman and CEO Lorenzo Simonelli said the company is proud to work alongside Venture Global as it expands Plaquemines LNG. The awards align with Baker Hughes' strategy to diversify beyond its traditional oilfield services business, following its acquisition of Chart Industries, and the inclusion of Chart cold boxes in the liquefaction award underscores the value of that deal. Baker Hughes will need to deliver sustained order growth and healthy margins across the combined business to justify the $13.6 billion price it paid for Chart Industries, while Venture Global faces financial and execution risks as its multi-billion-dollar expansion projects weigh on its balance sheet.

Tamboran Resources Narrows Loss to US$26.07 Million as Ernst & Young Flags Going Concern Doubt

Tamboran Resources Corporation reported a full-year net loss of US$26.07 million for the period ended June 30, 2026, an improvement from the US$36.9 million loss a year earlier, with basic loss per share from continuing operations narrowing to US$0.0058 from US$0.0126. On the same day, auditor Ernst & Young LLP issued an unqualified opinion expressing doubt about Tamboran's ability to continue as a going concern, citing funding and liquidity risk. The auditor's warning sits alongside the company's narrowing losses and centers on Tamboran's dependence on capital markets and farm-out carries to finance development of the Beetaloo Basin, which remains pre-revenue. That funding question bears on the timing and certainty of the first gas ramp-up, the key near-term catalyst for the company. Tamboran's narrative projects US$55.5 million in revenue and US$8.9 million in earnings by 2029, an implied US$43.3 million earnings increase from negative US$34.4 million today, while four fair value estimates from the Simply Wall St Community range from US$0.20 to US$12.55 per share.

Cummins Signs Multi-Year Natural Gas Fleet Deal With EquipmentShare

EquipmentShare.com Inc. announced a multi-year fleet agreement with Cummins Inc. to deploy up to 1 gigawatt of natural gas power generation capacity across major U.S. energy projects, centered on Cummins' C1400N6C lean-burn gas generator sets. The arrangement gives Cummins a rental and distribution partner focused on temporary power, microgrids, and battery storage solutions that can offer contractors energy cost reductions of 50% to 80% versus traditional mobile power. The deal adds another outlet for Cummins' natural gas generation and microgrid solutions, though the company's near-term swing factor remains whether it can avoid repeat EPS and EBITDA misses as incentives, tariffs and Accelera losses weigh on company-wide margins. Cummins' Q2 2026 update paired record Power Systems revenue of US$2.3b with a lower year-on-year EBITDA margin and trimmed Distribution guidance. Cummins' narrative projects $45.3 billion revenue and $5.7 billion earnings by 2029, requiring 9.2% yearly revenue growth and about a $3.0 billion earnings increase from $2.7 billion today, while some optimistic analysts had penciled in around US$50.5b of revenue and US$6.4b of earnings by 2029.
