Finding Undervalued Opportunities From AI and Data Center Demand in E&Ps and Midstream

Stephen Ellis

We think AI and data center demand offers a potentially sizable growth opportunity across our US E&P and US & Canadian midstream coverage list. We consider Chart Industries, Energy Transfer, Enbridge, Kinder Morgan, and TC Energy as undervalued ways to play this trend. Cheniere Energy and Williams are more fairly valued, while Antero, Range, and likely EQT (not covered) are obvious direct opportunities and appear expensive.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

At $600-$700/ton for incremental capacity expansion projects, Cheniere has some of the lowest-cost LNG projects on the global cost curve, well below the U.S. average of $800/ton and similar targets by Australian LNG producers.

Bears

If China changes its government policy on higher natural gas consumption, this would likely mean a decline in demand for U.S. LNG.
