New LNG projects are taking place across the world, which means opportunity is knocking for U.S. gas produced in places such as Susquehanna County.

Reading the weekend’s natural gas news, one thing stuck out to me; how many LNG projects are underway to help other nations diversify their gas supplies. That, of course, means one thing for U.S. producers—growing opportunities. Moreover, these aren’t just opportunities for natural gas companies here at home.

They also represent assurance for landowners in places such as Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania and others in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Texas and West Virginia, et al that the natural gas is there to stay and will continuing enriching local economies for decades to come. There will be more hospitals built, more college trained welders and natural gas technicians, more communities served with gas, more businesses and more new barns.

LNG projects are, seemingly, happening everywhere, although not without opposition from the usual suspects. Consider the following example from The European Scientist (emphasis added):

Croatia has approved the construction of a new liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal on the island of Krk in the northern Adriatic Sea. The law, passed on Thursday by Croatia’s legislature, is  part of a wider European Union effort to diversify its gas supply and reduce dependence on Russian imports.
