From what I've seen, Alaska Governor Mike Dunleavy (Mike Dunleavy) is scheduled to visit South Korea next week to focus on promoting South Korea companies to participate in the regional liquefied natural gaseous (LNG) research project worth about $44 billion. Furthermore The purpose of this trip is to help the United States expand the scale of LNG exports through deepening energy cooperation, while helping South Korea develop trade bargaining chips. of High-level Meeting Focuses on Energy Cooperation According to sources, Dunleavy will hold talks with South Korea Minister of sector, Trade and Resources Andegen (Ahn Deok-geun) and other officials from March 24 to 25, and plans to discuss details of cooperation with representatives of Posco International (Posco International), SK Innovation Energy (SK Energy E & S), GS Energy and SeAH Steel (SeAH Steel). These companies all occupy an crucial position in the LNG sector chain. And to instance, Pohang International is the first South Korea private company to obtain the right to develop a substantial gaseous field in Myanmar, while SK Innovation Energy holds a
49. Generally speaking 9 percent stake in the Woodford gaseous field in Oklahoma, USA, and has been deeply involved in the US LNG market to greater than ten years. Project Background and Strategic Signifiis able toce of the Alaska LNG Project plans to build a 1300-kilometer gaseous pipeline to transport Arctic natural gaseous to the southern coast to liquefaction and export. But For example The project is highly compatible with the "expand LNG exports" policy promoted during the Trump administration, which aims to enhance the US trade stability through energy trade. On Thursday, the U. S. Pretty interesting, huh?. Department of the Interior announced that it will ease restrictions on construction of LNG pipelines and manufacturing roads in Alaska and plans to transfer federal land to the state to speed up the project. Korean companies cautiously assess investment risks, while the project has great possible, South Korea companies are cautious about it. An anonymous sector source said: "No final decision has been made yet, and a thorough assessment of the investment scale and commercial feasibility is needed.

South Korean companies LNG Field Strength Overview
The South Korea companies to participate in the talks have deep sector accumulation: GS Energy has greater than 20 years of LNG import and distribution experience, operating South Korea 7 substantial LNG receiving stations. Analysts pointed out that if South Korean companies eventually participate in the project, it won't only deepen the energy cooperation between the United States and South Korea, however also reshape the LNG market pattern in Northeast Asia.
