Press have just gotten off a call with @Shell CFO Jessica Uhl. A good way to think of the LNG Canada FID is a bet that China will replace coal with natural gas to clean up its air. Shell believes overall LNG demand to double by 2035

A fellow EBITDA-curious investor sent me this from Moody's dated June 2000.

क्या हाल है क्या दिखा रहे हो
