BG Group Limited (OTCMKTS: BRGYY) is an international energy company with core operations in the exploration, development, production and marketing of natural gas and associated liquids. The company’s activities span the upstream oil and gas value chain, focusing on identifying and exploiting hydrocarbon reserves, as well as delivering liquefied natural gas (LNG) to global markets. Through an integrated approach, BG Group engages in reservoir appraisal, drilling, production facilities management, and midstream logistics to bring gas from offshore and onshore fields to end users.
The company’s LNG business is a central pillar of its product offering. BG Group develops and operates large-scale liquefaction plants, manages a fleet of specialized LNG carriers and maintains regasification terminals in key markets. Its marketing and trading arm secures long-term offtake contracts with utilities, power generators and industrial consumers, while also participating in short-term and spot markets to optimize supply flexibility and margin capture.
BG Group maintains a diversified geographic presence, with significant investments in regions such as the Asia Pacific, Latin America, Africa and the North Sea. Notable projects include deepwater gas fields off the coast of Brazil, LNG developments in Trinidad & Tobago and Australia, and exploration acreage in East Africa. The company leverages local partnerships and joint ventures to access new resource basins and to navigate regional regulatory frameworks, ensuring a balanced portfolio of mature and frontier assets.
Originally established in 1997 as a demerger from British Gas plc, BG Group built a reputation for technical expertise in deepwater exploration and LNG project execution. Under the leadership of former CEO Sir Frank Chapman, the company expanded its global footprint and diversified its asset base. In 2016, Royal Dutch Shell completed the acquisition of BG Group, integrating its operations into Shell’s broader gas and LNG platform. The legacy BG Group management team brought extensive industry experience in reservoir management, project development and global gas marketing, laying the foundation for continued growth within the combined group.
