The Alaska LNG project is once again in the spotlight after decades of stalled attempts to commercialize North Slope gas. Glenfarne Group assumed control of the project earlier this year, restructuring it into phased development to make costs more manageable and attract international buyers. The centerpiece is an 807-mile, 42-inch pipeline designed to move 3.3 Bcf/d of natural gas through some of the harshest terrain in North America. Estimated project costs range from $38 billion to $44 billion, driven higher by the need for a $10 billion processing plant to treat sour gas and remove CO₂.
Supporters emphasize Alaska’s geographic advantage: LNG cargoes from the Gulf Coast take months to reach Asia, while Alaska shipments can arrive in weeks, translating into billions in potential savings. Glenfarne points to signed supply agreements, including a 20-year deal with Thailand for 2 million tonnes per annum (mtpa), as proof of momentum. Roughly half of planned production is already reserved.
Still, skepticism persists. Analysts argue that the per-ton capital cost is nearly double that of Gulf Coast projects, and some suggest that political considerations, rather than pure economics, are driving early commitments. Despite these doubts, developers maintain that phased construction, early pipeline revenues, and Asia’s proximity could finally make Alaska LNG commercially viable.
U.S. stock-market futures were flat Monday while gold and silver futures hit new all-time highs, amid uncertainty around the Fed’s independence and the Trump administration’s tariffs, as well as rising optimism about potential interest-rate cuts.
The continuous contract for gold futures on the New York Mercantile Exchange rose to a record high of $3,552.40 an ounce on Monday. Gold was most recently trading up 0.9%, around $3,547. The precious metal has seen its price soar about 34% year to date. The continuous contract for silver also surged 2% to a new high Monday, at $41.760. Silver was most recently trading at $41.580, up about 42% this year.
After initially rising about 40 points, Dow Jones Industrial Average futures were last down 40 points, or 0.1%. S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq-100 futures also gave up early gains and were down slightly. Bitcoin sank to near the $108,000 level, while crude oil, as reflected by West Texas Intermediate front-month prices , gained nearly 1%. The ICE U.S. Dollar Index , which measures the greenback against a basket of six foreign rivals, edged lower.
Gold and silver are seen as safe-haven assets, and their appeal has gained amid fears that the U.S. Federal Reserve may lose its independence, weakening the dollar. President Donald Trump has, for months, pressured Fed Chair Jerome Powell to slash interest rates, and his recent attempt to fire Fed governor Lisa Cook is seen by many as an attempt to impose control over the central bank.
