Freeport LNG Gets Ready to Restart Exports, Tanker Docked Nearby
The second-largest LNG export terminal in the U.S., Freeport LNG, located near Galveston, Texas, experienced an explosion and fire in early June (see Explosion Rocks Freeport LNG Export Plant – Offline for 3 Weeks). Freeport, when it’s online and running, liquefies and exports roughly 2 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) of natural gas--some of it from the Marcellus/Utica. In August, Freeport LNG Development, the operator, said the plant is expected to be back online in November (see Freeport LNG Restart Timeline Slips from October to November). It appears we are now very close to the restart of the facility.
