The Department of Energy (DOE) has granted NextDecade LLC’s Rio Grande LNG terminal authorization to export to natural gas to countries with free trade agreements (FTA), the company announced Wednesday.

Annova LNG has filed at FERC for authorization to construct a liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminal on the Brownsville Ship Channel in Cameron County, TX. It is one of several such projects proposed for the area.

U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminals “raced ahead” last year as a final investment decision (FID) was made on three projects during the first half, representing 18.5 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) of capacity, according to Wood Mackenzie Ltd.’s principal analyst Alex Munton. But LNG demand in Asia has waned, analysts said, creating uncertainty ahead.

With greatly narrowed spreads for liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports and slackening demand, why haven’t more proposed LNG export projects thrown in the towel already, Wood Mackenzie’s Noel Tomnay, vice president of global gas and LNG research, pondered in a note Thursday.

Cheniere Energy Inc.’s Corpus Christi Liquefaction LLC (CCL) may export up to 514 Bcf/year of liquefied domestic natural gas from trains four and five of its terminal, which is under construction in San Patricio and Nueces counties, TX, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) said Thursday.

Undaunted by headwinds in the global liquefied natural gas (LNG) marketplace, U.S. export first-mover Cheniere Energy Inc. Thursday announced potential projects that could add 19 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) of production capacity to its future capabilities, giving it aggregate capacity of 60 mtpa by 2025.

Bear Head LNG Corp. — which recently doubled the size of its proposed Nova Scotia liquefaction and export terminal to 8 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) of liquefied natural gas (LNG) — is asking Canada’s National Energy Board (NEB) for a license to export ultimately up to 12 mtpa.

Cheniere Energy Inc.’s Corpus Christi Liquefaction LLC has struck a second deal to sell liquefied natural gas (LNG) to Indonesia’s state-owned PT Pertamina (Persero).
