Five things you may not know about natural gas

Having enough natural gas is only part of energy security. Countries and customers also need the ability to respond when demand changes or supply is disrupted.

That flexibility comes from the system surrounding the molecule: production from different regions, liquefaction facilities, storage, shipping capacity, receiving terminals and the commercial relationships that connect them.

Chevron's natural gas portfolio spans Australia, the United States, the Eastern Mediterranean, South America, West Africa and Asia. That portfolio continues to evolve alongside customer demand.

A geographically diverse portfolio backed by solid infrastructure and partnerships can provide more ways to connect supply with demand as market conditions change. Those options can help improve resilience when market conditions change.

"Infrastructure doesn't just move energy. It creates options," said Freeman Shaheen, president of Chevron Global Gas.
