US LNG Producers Still Playing Footsie with EU re Methane Regs

The European Union’s idiotic methane regulations will be enforced beginning this year. Domestic (European) oil, gas, and coal companies must monitor, measure, and report their emissions. The same restrictions apply to energy imports from other countries, including the U.S. (see Europeans Presume to Impose Their Regulations on American Gas). The arrogant Europeans presume to tell us that we must follow *their* regulations! As we previously reported, our drillers appear intent on complying with the Euro weenies because our exporters want to sell LNG to them (see U.S. LNG Exporters Continue Strict Methane Regs Despite Rollbacks). Playing footsie with Europe continues, according to the president and CEO of LNG Allies, a trade group representing U.S. LNG exporters.
