Venture Global Inks 20-Year LNG Supply Deal with China Gas
VG has more than doubled off its 52-week low of $5.72.
Summary
Venture Global signed a 20-year agreement to supply China Gas Holdings with 0.5 million metric tons of LNG annually starting 2030. This brings total long-term commitments with China Gas to 2.5 MTPA. The deal is notable because China halted U.S. LNG imports in March 2025 amid tariffs, and this agreement signals a potential reopening of that market ahead of President Xi's expected Washington visit. Venture Global CEO said the deal will help supply China's energy needs with low-cost LNG from Louisiana sites. It adds a new, long-dated revenue stream for Venture Global, which has been expanding its customer base with deals like the EnBW agreement in June. The company's Q2 results showed strong operational momentum with a 69% jump in liquefaction fees, and this deal further solidifies its contracted volume outlook.
At the time of this announcement, VG was trading at $16.16 on NYSE in the Energy & Transportation sector, with a market capitalization of approximately $39.5B.
