Chesapeake Energy, Delfin LNG and Gunvor Group Ltd., through Gunvor Singapore Pte Ltd., entered into an LNG sale and purchase agreement for long-term liquefaction offtake, Chesapeake announced in a Feb. 13 press release.

As part of the agreement, Chesapeake will purchase approximately 0.5 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) of LNG from Delfin at a Henry Hub price with a targeted start date in 2028.
