US liquefied natural gas exporter Cheniere Energy Inc. has completed the latest expansion at its Corpus Christi production plant in South Texas.
The finalization of the Stage 3 expansion will boost Cheniere’s output by more than 20% to about 56 million tons a year across its two facilities, the company said in a statement on Monday.
The project comes as a growing wave of LNG production capacity is coming on stream on the US Gulf Coast. With about one-fifth of the world’s output still effectively shuttered due to the war in the Middle East, American LNG has become a crucial backfill of supply to markets in Europe and Asia.
Cheniere, based in Houston, first began construction on Stage 3 in 2022 and began first producing LNG in December 2024. The expansion phase is made up of seven trains totaling 10 million tons a year.
