Robust Operational Performance
In Q3 2025, Orca demonstrated notable operational achievements. Gas deliveries surged by 7% compared to the prior quarter, accumulating a 4% increase year-to-date. This growth can be attributed largely to heightened industrial consumption and an increasing demand for our services and products.
