Cameron Liquefaction Project Details
Artist’s rendering of Cameron Liquefaction Project
With an estimated total cost of
$9 to $10 billion, many benefits —both
locally and globally—will result from
the construction and operation of the
Cameron LNG liquefaction facilities.
Cameron LNG, Sempra’s liquefied natural gas (LNG) receipt terminal in
Louisiana, has proposed adding liquefaction facilities to export domestically
produced LNG. It has obtained approval from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)
to export up to 12 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa), or approximately 1.7 billion
cubic feet (bcf) per day, of LNG to all Free Trade Agreement (FTA) countries, and
on February 2014 received conditional authorization to export to non-FTA countries.
Cameron LNG received notice in April 2014 that the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (FERC) issued the final environmental impact statement to construct
and operate the liquefaction facilities. Cameron LNG is the first liquefaction
project pending before FERC to have reached this significant milestone in the
permitting process.
