Equinor Quits Wind?!

May 14, 2025

In this episode of the Energy News Beat Daily Standup, the hosts, Stuart Turley and Michael Tanner break down Equinor's potential cancellation of its $2.5 billion Empire Wind project off Long Island due to halted federal support, rising electricity costs, and lost tax credits. They also cover Ukraine’s first bio-LNG export to the EU, Sempra’s LNG pre-commissioning in Mexico, and Russia’s multi-billion-dollar domestic fleet expansion aimed at Arctic shipping dominance. The duo wraps with market updates, falling oil service earnings, and insights into tariffs, LNG, and U.S.–Saudi energy ties.
