US LNG Export Volumes Increase as Calcasieu Pass Comes Online

Venture Global’s Calcasieu Pass LNG export facility in Louisiana shipped its inaugural cargo of LNG back in February (see Calcasieu Pass LNG Loads Inaugural Cargo; Sabine Pass LNG Expands). In May, Calcasieu Pass began accepting daily deliveries of 800 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) of natural gas (see Calcasieu Pass, U.S.’s 7th LNG Export Terminal, Hits 0.8 Bcf/d). The facility continues to build toward using an estimated 1.3 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) of natgas, with the ability to spike up to 1.6 Bcf/d. And it's a good thing because not long after Calcasieu Pass came online, Freeport LNG and its 2 Bcf/d of production went offline (see Explosion Rocks Freeport LNG Export Plant – Offline for 3 Weeks). Freeport remains offline to this day.
