Louisiana LNG Energy (LLNG) has filed an application with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to export two million metric tons of LNG per annum for a term of 25 years to any country with which the United States currently has, or in the future may enter into, a free trade agreement.
LLNG is seeking authority to export LNG from a proposed facility to be constructed on a 200 acre site near mile marker 46 on the East Bank of the Mississippi River down-river from the Port of New Orleans in Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana.
The liquefaction facility will consist of four 74,380 Mcf/d liquefaction trains with an annual capacity of approximately 100 Bcf (or two MTPA) of LNG.
