In this article, we are going to discuss the energy stocks that are gaining this week.
The American energy sector had a very eventful week with President Trump’s visit to his allies in the Middle East, during which he bolstered energy ties by announcing deals worth hundreds of billions of dollars. In Saudi Arabia, the state oil giant Aramco signed a $3.4 billion agreement to expand the Motiva refinery in Texas to integrate chemicals production, in addition to signing LNG purchase deals with NextDecade and Sempra. In Qatar, the White House highlighted partnerships between McDermott International Ltd. and Qatar Energy worth $8.5 billion, as well as 30 projects worth up to $97 billion for Parsons Corp.
However, the highlight of the trip was in the United Arab Emirates, with the Gulf nation announcing plans to raise its energy investments in the United States to $440 billion by 2035, from the $70 billion earmarked previously. Notably, the American energy sector reciprocated by committing to new investments worth $60 billion in the upstream oil and gas sector, as well as new and unconventional opportunities in the U.A.E.

Stabilis Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ:SLNG) bounced back this week after falling by over 7% the week before, following the company’s announcement of lower-than-expected results for its Q1 2025. SLNG’s revenue declined by 12.3% YoY to $17.34 million during the quarter, falling short of expectations by almost $2 million, primarily due to expected downtime with a marine customer and the completion of a large industrial customer contract. The company also reported a loss per share of -$0.09, against estimates of a profit of $0.04 per share.
However, despite falling short of forecasts, Stabilis Solutions, Inc.
