Shell Captures U.S. LNG Value Without Tying Up Significant Capital, CEO Says -- Market Talk

1032 GMT - Shell doesn't see the need to leverage its own capital in U.S. liquefied natural gas, citing abundant low-cost funding already available for infrastructure, Chief Executive Wael Sawan says. Instead, the company is one of the largest offtakers of U.S. LNG--meaning it buys large volumes under long-term contracts--with many customer contracts indexed to natural gas prices at Henry Hub, effectively managing price exposure. This approach allows Shell to capture attractive value in the LNG chain without tying up significant capital, Sawan says at International Energy Week in London. (giulia.petroni@wsj.com)
