BP, Edison, Shell seek intervention in LNG dispute

HOUSTON: BP, Edison and Shell pressed a US-European Union (EU) energy group to intervene in a dispute with liquefied natural gas (LNG) exporter Venture Global LNG over the US firm’s failure to deliver contract supplies of the fuel.

The companies appealed to the US-EU Task Force on Energy Security last month, and a Shell executive urged them to require Venture Global LNG to “immediately begin to perform” under their signed contracts.
