June 11, 2025 [Reuters]- Shell, the world’s largest trader of liquefied natural gas, will add up to 12 million metric tons of additional capacity between now and the end of the decade from projects under construction, a top executive said on Wednesday.

“(There is) up to 12 million tons of additional (LNG) capacity that we’re adding between now and the end of the decade,” Cederic Cremers, Shell’s president of integrated gas, said at Wood Mackenzie’s Gas, LNG and the Future of Energy Conference in London.

“That is not an ambition. Those are all projects that are currently in construction,” he said.

The projects included one in Canada, two in Qatar, as well as projects in Nigeria and the UAE.
