Excelerate’s offering is the first LNG-related IPO in the U.S. since 2019, indicating a reversal in fortunes for fossil fuel companies as crude oil and natural gas prices bounced back from pandemic lows.
Excelerate Energy sold 16 million shares on April 12 at $24 each, the company said. It had previously indicated it would price its shares at $21 to $24. The IPO values Excelerate at $2.54 billion.
(Bloomberg) U.S. liquefied natural gas company Excelerate Energy Inc. will supply floating power plants to Albania, hoping that the deal will get the company access to Europe’s natural gas market.
