Exploration, Development and Production is done through establishing Joint Ventures, to share and minimize the substantial capital costs and diversifying risks

The outputs often need to be transported in significant distances through pipelines and tankers; gas volumes are extremely liquid, so it’s transported by special carriers, and is then regasified on arrival at its destination.
