Benford Investment Expands US Oil and Gas Focus Amid Global Demand Surge

Hong Kong-based investment firm Benford Investment Limited has announced its expanded focus on U.S. oil and natural gas investment opportunities.

The company's decision comes as the U.S. energy market enters a period of significant development, driven by record natural-gas production, growing liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports, and increasing demand for reliable energy supplies.

Benchmarked against 2025 levels, the U.S. Energy Information Administration predicts that LNG exports will increase from approximately 15 billion cubic feet per day to roughly 17 billion cubic feet per day in 2026.

The expansion of U.S. LNG infrastructure and international demand for American natural gas has led Benford Investment Limited to evaluate investment opportunities across the energy value chain, including oil and natural-gas production, energy infrastructure, and businesses poised to benefit from growing domestic and international demand.
