AI data centers and LNG to double natural gas demand by 2030

Kinder Morgan reported strong Q3 2025 with EPS of $0.28 (in line y/y on reported basis, but adjusted EPS grew 16%). Management struck a bullish tone on natural gas demand from LNG exports and AI-driven power generation, citing a $9.3B backlog and $10B+ opportunity set. Key cross-company signal was a new joint refined products pipeline with Phillips 66 (Western Gateway) to serve Arizona and California markets. Alpha insights include Haynesville volume records, massive power-gen pipeline opportunities, shorter FERC timelines, and rising storage demand. Q3 2025 EPS $0.28 (reported), adjusted EPS +16% YoY; EBITDA +6%.

Оценка менеджмента

Тон

Confident

Management expresses strong conviction in the natural gas growth story and the company's strategic positioning, citing a robust pipeline of opportunities and a strong balance sheet.

AI

Оценка AI от менеджмента

Management expects AI-driven data center electricity demand to significantly supplement LNG feed gas demand, positioning natural gas as the primary source due to the limitations of renewables and nuclear. They are actively pursuing power generation opportunities, including over 10 Bcf/d of natural gas opportunities to serve the power sector, but do not intend to invest behind the meter.

Капзатраты

Инвестиции и мощности

The expansion backlog remains flat at $9.3 billion, with a $10 billion opportunity set of potential projects, mostly in natural gas and smaller projects under $250 million, but a few over $1 billion. Management expects to bring significant projects to FID in 2026 and has capacity to increase capital spending above the current run rate if needed, without compromising the balance sheet.

A1

Haynesville gathering volumes are approaching new daily volume records and were up 15% quarter-over-quarter in Q3, driven by producer response to LNG demand growth.

Доказательства
“quarter over quarter in the Hainesville volumes are up 15%. So we're seeing our customers bring on these volumes.”
A2

KMI is exploring more than 10 Bcf/d of natural gas pipeline opportunities to serve the power generation sector, a massive potential expansion beyond current backlog.

Доказательства
“we are exploring more than 10 BCF a day of natural gas opportunities to serve the power generation sector.”
A3

FERC regulatory cycle has shortened: the elimination of 'seventy one' (likely NEPA categorical exclusion review) has reduced project approval timelines by about five months.

Доказательства
“the regulated projects now have a shorter time cycle than they have in the past. ... the FERC has gotten rid of a seventy one. So that five months is gone.”
A4

Storage demand is 'a huge factor right now' as customers need more gas storage for reliability; KMI is evaluating expansions and greenfield storage projects.

Доказательства
“Storage is a huge factor right now. People need a lot of storage. And so we're looking at some opportunities to expand our storage and some new greenfield opportunities.”
