Four decades of natural gas expertise. AI-powered for what's next.

Services

Carina Energy Consulting LLC provides expert advisory services across the natural gas industry, backed by over four decades of executive-level experience — now paired with modern AI capability. Our services include:

    •    Storage & Pipeline Capacity Valuation — market value assessment of storage assets and pipeline capacity for transactions, financing, and strategic planning

    •    Supply Strategy — natural gas supply strategy and portfolio positioning, informed by leading market data and analytics

    •    Gas Trading & Portfolio Management — hedging strategy, risk management, and trading operations

    •    Regulatory & Contract Strategy — FERC compliance, contract negotiation, and market structure consulting

    •    AI Strategy & Implementation — for firms new to AI, we help develop a practical AI strategy tailored to your business; for firms already using AI, we help deepen and broaden its application to get more value from existing investments

We work alongside the market data and forecasts our clients already have — or help identify where to source it — and apply decades of operational and commercial judgment, sharpened by AI, to turn that data into strategy.

About

Carina Energy Consulting was founded by Samuel Andrus, who brings 43 years of executive experience across the natural gas industry - from pipeline facility planning and regulatory strategy at ANR Pipeline, to gas trading and portfolio management at Progress Energy and ArcLight Energy, to over a decade as a senior natural gas markets authority at IHS Markit/CERA, where his consulting work centered on the market value of storage assets, pipeline capacity, and supply strategy.

Jameson Andrus brings modern AI and machine learning expertise to the firm, helping clients apply advanced analytics and automation to traditionally manual industry processes.

Together, they pair decades of deep energy sector judgment with cutting-edge technical capability - a combination built to help clients modernize how they value assets, manage risk, and plan strategy.
