Petrobras LNG contract anchors Sempra’s growth story

According to Ground News, Sempra Infrastructure announced on September 14, 2026, that it has signed a 20-year sales and purchase agreement with Petrobras for approximately 0.8 million tonnes per annum of liquefied natural gas from its US export facilities.

The Petrobras contract adds visible volume underpinning for Sempra’s LNG strategy and extends revenue visibility well into the 2040s, strengthening the case for long-lived cash flows from its infrastructure assets.
