A very expensive safety net
Venture Global says it has closed a $3 billion, 364-day senior secured revolving credit facility. Translation: the company now has a big corporate credit card it can tap if it needs liquidity, and it did it with the kind of banker-approved seriousness that comes with the words senior secured.
Why this matters
For a capital-hungry business like Venture Global, cash flexibility is oxygen. A revolver like this can help smooth out project spending, working capital needs, and any awkward timing gaps between money going out and money coming back in.
