Freeport LNG Goes Offline for the Umpteenth Time, Then Restarts

Up/down, up/down, up/down, up/down... We can't count how many times the Freeport LNG export facility has come online to go offline again, with the cycle repeating (see our MANY stories about the uneven Freeport here). It's become kind of a joke. Except, it's no joke. Freeport is (still, for now) the country's second-largest LNG export plant, with a capacity to liquefy 2.1 Bcf/d (billion cubic feet per day) of natural gas. Some of that gas comes from the Marcellus/Utica, which is why we care about the upness and downness of this facility. It's happened again. The facility went offline on Wednesday, but yesterday, it had begun to come back online.
