Cheniere Moves Ahead With Sabine Pass LNG Expansion

Cheniere Energy Partners signed an engineering, procurement and construction contract with Bechtel for the first phase of its Sabine Pass LNG expansion in Louisiana. The project's first phase is expected to add more than 6 million tonnes per annum of LNG production capacity, with the broader expansion project developed for up to three large-scale liquefaction trains with total peak production capacity of roughly 20 mtpa. The company expects to reach final investment decision by early 2027, pending regulatory approvals and financing.
