“On the heels of President Trump’s historic trade negotiations, demand for secure, reliable American LNG is surging,” said Secretary Wright. “The Department of Energy is ensuring companies like Lake Charles LNG are prepared meet this global demand while advancing common-sense policies that support American jobs and lower energy costs here at home.”
Lake Charles LNG was originally configured as an LNG import terminal, but is now being developed as an LNG export terminal. Recently, the company signed several long-term LNG offtake contracts, including agreements with Chevron and Kyushu Electric Power Company.
