Caturus to Nearly Double Commonwealth LNG with 7.75 MTPA Expansion

| |
Four months after pulling the trigger on its $13 billion Commonwealth LNG export plant in Cameron Parish, Louisiana (see Caturus Makes FID to Build Commonwealth LNG Export Plant in La), Caturus is already planning to make it bigger. A lot bigger. On Tuesday, Caturus announced a five-train, 7.75 MTPA (million tonnes per annum) expansion that would take the site from 9.5 MTPA to roughly 17.25 MTPA. That's an 81.6% increase, or "nearly double" in press-release speak. So what's in it for the Marcellus/Utica? More than you might think, although not in the way we first thought (more on that below).
