Cheniere Gets Approval to Introduce Natural Gas Into Final LNG Expansion Plant

(Reuters) – U.S. regulators have approved Cheniere Energy’s request to introduce natural gas into Train 7 of its Corpus Christi LNG export project in south Texas, according to a Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) letter issued on Tuesday.

• The approval takes the largest U.S. LNG exporter one step closer to production from its seventh and final train at its Corpus Christi midscale expansion project.
• Corpus Christi Stage 3 is designed to add more than 10 million metric tons of LNG, expanding U.S. LNG export capacity as developers seek to meet growing global demand for the superchilled fuel.
• The U.S. is the world’s largest LNG exporter, and Cheniere is the second largest LNG producer in the world.
