FERC Grants OK to Restart Freeport LNG Final Liquefaction Train

| | |
We have been closely tracking the restart of the shuttered Freeport LNG export terminal following its emergency shutdown in June 2022 after an explosion and fire. Most recently, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) granted permission for Freeport to restart two of three liquefaction "trains" at the facility (see FERC Clears Freeport LNG to Restart 2 of 3 Liquefaction Trains). Freeport asked for permission to restart everything else, including the final (of three) LNG train, the final (of three) LNG storage tanks, and a second (of two) births that allow ships to dock and load. Yesterday FERC granted permission to Freeport to restart the final train, but NOT the final storage tank nor the second ship dock.
