400+ Energy Decision Makers Anticipate Annual Forum To Assess Gulf Coast Gas, LNG Markets & Deal Structures Houston, Texas, Sept. 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The 8th Annual Gulf Coast Energy Forum takes place October 14 – 16, 2026, in New Orleans, LA.

The U.S. Gulf Coast continues its dominance as the epicenter for Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) exports to global markets. At the same time, demand for natural gas for domestic use in this region is extremely strong and projected to grow considerably in the foreseeable future. New Orleans is the obvious location for energy industry professionals to gather to examine markets, obtain insight, develop strategies, and consummate commercial transactions.

The 8th annual Gulf Coast Energy Forum takes place October 14 – 16, 2026 in New Orleans, LA. This is the industry’s premier gathering uniquely positioned for natural gas and LNG industry professionals, which is much more than simply a conference, with participants routinely negotiating commercial transactions during the event.

This year’s Program is structured to address critical issues faced by Natural Gas and LNG export market stakeholders spanning the commercial value chain. The central theme for the Agenda includes the industry response to the phenomenal increase in U.S. natural gas demand, primarily for liquefaction and export of LNG, to fuel Natural Gas Power Generation, including for AI data centers, and also to supply domestic U.S. natural gas demand stemming from economic growth and re-industrialization.

Beyond these overarching themes, the agenda also addresses issues unique to U.S. Gulf Coast Natural Gas markets, including:

Specific to LNG exports, the entire commercial value chain will be examined, including production, feedgas access, midstream delivery capacity, storage, liquefaction terminal operations, shipping, global market requirements, trading and marketing, etc. The agenda will include evaluation of the numerous new LNG export terminal projects in various stages of development, calculation of forecasted growth in U.S. LNG export capacity, and resulting increase in U.S. market share of the global LNG demand.

Gulf Coast Energy Forum topics include market fundamentals (supply/demand/price), natural gas supply sufficiency, midstream infrastructure project updates, end-use natural gas buyer perspectives, policy/regulatory/legal analysis, and technology innovations. These topics are discussed in the context of the commercial operations value chain involving producing, transporting, and buying natural gas and LNG.

The Program for the Gulf Coast Energy Forum consists of 2 ½ days of Presentations and moderated Panels providing topical content, insight, analysis, and takeaways from industry leaders and subject matter experts.

A Keynote Luncheon Address will be provided by Jeff Hammad, Chief Commercial Officer, Golden Pass LNG.

The Program also includes five moderated Panel discussions addressing a variety of timely topics, discussed by knowledgeable industry leaders representing the following leading organizations: Natural Gas Intelligence (NGI), East Daley Analytics, ConocoPhillips, Howard Energy Partners, DT Midstream, Enbridge Inc., REV LNG, Gulf Coast Midstream, Sapphire Gas Solutions, bp, Center For LNG, Williams, Entergy Services, Torridon Group LLC, RBN Energy, a Novi Company, Sempra Infrastructure, Glenfarne LNG, Shell, TC Energy, NJ Resources, EQT, Southern Company Services, Southern Company Gas, Cleveland Advisory, NatGasHub.com, nGenue, Trellis Energy Software, SEO Agency USA, Delta Utilities, NRG Energy, GCC of America and Cleveland Advisory.
