US liquefied natural gas developer Tellurian moved on Monday to dispel suggestions it was considering a sale of the company as the recent appointment of a new financial advisor triggered speculations over the future of the operation.
Tellurian, which has struggled to progress the $14.5 billion Driftwood LNG project in Louisiana, appointed Lazard as financial advisor in December.
In the same month, the company ousted his co-founder and then chairman Charif Souki, with fellow co-founder Martin Houston taking the helm.
In a statement to shareholders on Monday, Houston hit out at “misleading” press coverage that suggested the company had picked Lazard as it was considering a sale.
Chevron's Duvernay sale seen attracting mid-sized Canadian shale operators

As Chevron Corp markets its Duvernay shale assets, the U.S. oil major is most likely to find a buyer among a handful of mid-sized Canadian firms that are boosting investment in a region that has yet to fulfill its potential, analysts say.
The play is situated in west-central Alberta and currently produces nearly 200,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boepd), according to consultancy Wood Mackenzie. It is much smaller than the nearby Montney shale play and the major U.S. plays like the Permian.
Chevron's Duvernay assets could fetch up to $900 million, Houston-based advisory firm Energy Advisors Group estimates.

The drone that struck a US military outpost in Jordan, killing three US soldiers and injuring at least 40 more, arrived at the base, known as Tower 22, at the same time as a returning US drone, prompting confusion over whether it was friendly, US officials told news outlets yesterday. Iran has denied responsibility for the attack despite equipping militias in the area. The analysis of how the attack happened came as the US carefully considered how to respond without widening the war in the Middle East. Meanwhile, the prime minister of Qatar said talks had yielded progress toward a cease-fire in Gaza in exchange for the return of more hostages to Israel.

(Monday market close)U.S. stocks extended a strong month into the final week of January on Monday as investors await a heavy slate of mega-cap earnings and a Federal Reserve policy meeting that's widely expected to end with no change to benchmark interest rates. The S&P 500® index (SPX) closed above 4,900 for the first time and posted a record close for the sixth time in the past seven days.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average® (DJI) also reached another all-time high, illustrating investors' buoyant attitudes following a string of stronger economic readings and continuing descent in inflation that many believe will prompt a Fed "pivot" to rate cuts at some point this year. Investors also have an eye on Friday's January jobs report, which is sure to factor into Fed policy discussions. Here's where the major benchmarks ended:
The S&P 500 index rose 36.96 points (0.8%) to 4,927.93; the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 224.02 points (0.6%) to 38,333.45; theNasdaq Composite® (COMP) added 172.68 points (1.1%) to 15,628.04.
The 10-year Treasury note yield (TNX) dropped about 8 basis points to 4.08%.
The Cboe Volatility Index® (VIX) rose 0.37 to 13.63.
