Jan 18, 2018 interesting article. Delfin LNG developer says it may merge into idled company it bought 71% of
The developer of the proposed Delfin LNG export project said in a Jan. 11 filing with the SEC that it may complete a reverse merger with theglobe.com after buying a 71% stake in the idled technology company on the last day of 2017.

In the filing, Fairwood Peninsula Energy Corp., which owns LNG developer Delfin Midstream LLC, said it was appointing Fairwood Director William "Rusty" Nichols as chairman of the board, CEO and CFO of theglobe.com. "In addition, Delfin Midstream currently anticipates that it may enter into an agreement with the Issuer to merge into the Issuer, sell its assets to the Issuer or otherwise consolidate all of substantially all of the Issuer's business with Delfin Midstream," the filing said. "However, there can be no assurance that the Issuer will be successful in consummating any such transaction in the near future, if at all."

Delfin on Dec. 31, 2017, closed a $25,000 deal to buy a majority stake in idled tech company theglobe.com Inc. for less than a penny per share. As of market close on Jan. 11, Delfin's nearly 313 million shares were worth nearly $63 million.

A source familiar with the matter had previously told S&P Global Market Intelligence on condition of anonymity that a reverse merger was one of the options the company was considering. The Jan. 11 filing is the first official word from the company on the development.

Two other U.S. LNG export hopefuls have gone public via a reverse merger over the past year as they seek access to capital markets to help finance multibillion-dollar project proposals. Tellurian Inc., which was co-founded by the former CEO of U.S. LNG export pioneer Cheniere Energy Inc., in February 2017 closed on a reverse merger with the former Magellan Petroleum Corp. NextDecade Corp. in July 2017 completed a deal with blank-check company Harmony Merger Corp. Both Tellurian's Driftwood LNG and NextDecade's Rio Grande LNG projects are awaiting approval from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.

The $7 billion Delfin LNG export terminal is one of four fully permitted U.S. projects awaiting a final investment decision. The developer has signed a nonbinding agreement with China Gas Holdings Ltd. for 3 million tonnes per annum of LNG for 15 years starting in 2022.

The 13 mtpa project in June 2017 received authorization from the U.S. Department of Energy to export to countries with which the U.S. does not have a free trade agreement. The location of the proposed facility, about 40 nautical miles off the coast of Cameron Parish, La., makes the offshore portion of the project subject to the Deepwater Port Act and the jurisdiction of the U.S. Coast Guard and the U.S. Department of Transportation's Maritime Administration, which approved the project in March 2017.

The Delfin LNG project would be the first offshore liquefaction terminal in the U.S.
