Hello TODers,

Oman reports Sur LNG plant was NOT damaged:

Obviously, I have no way to verify this, but that is good news if true.

Hmmm, this contradicts the report on the zman website:

Zman's Energy Brain

Oman’s Sur LNG terminal, which has the capability of liquifying 10 mm tons per year, or 1.3 Bcfgpd or 2.4% of estimated global liquefaction capacity, was badly damaged and no time frame has been set for reopening. Omani LNG has not come to the US since 2005 in favor of other destinations and they are a relatively small player so the loss of the facility should not have much, if any, impact on U.S. gas prices.

Hard to know what to believe right now.
