Portfolio Pulse from Vandana Singh
Workers at Chevron Corporation's (NYSE:CVX) LNG projects in Australia have gone on strike, potentially disrupting exports and raising LNG prices. The strikes began at Chevron's Gorgon and Wheatstone facilities, which accounted for about 7% of global LNG supply last year. If no deal is reached by next Wednesday, the workers plan to stop work completely for two weeks starting September 14. Woodside Energy Group Ltd (NYSE:WDS) was also initially threatened with strikes, but reached a settlement with its workforce.
