Every Week Freeport LNG Delayed Takes 4 LNG Cargoes Off Market

The 2 Bcf/d Freeport LNG export terminal, located in Quintana Island, Texas, has been offline and not producing LNG since June 2022 due to an explosion (see Explosion Rocks Freeport LNG Export Plant – Offline for 3 Weeks). Freeport, which exports some Marcellus/Utica molecules, has changed its estimated restart date multiple times. Earlier this month, Freeport revised its restart date to be the end of January (see Familiar Pattern: Freeport LNG Delays Restart Again, to End Jan.). A week later, sources told Reuters that restart will almost certainly be sometime in February (see Sources Say Freeport LNG Won’t Restart Until End of February). Every week the Freeport facility remains offline removes another four LNG cargo carriers from delivering our LNG to the rest of the world.
