The US Energy Information Administration (EIA) noted in its weekly report that a total of seven cargoes departed U.S. LNG export plants.

The vessels departing during the week ending July 22, had a combined LNG-carrying capacity of 25 billion cubic feet.

This compares to four cargoes with a combined LNG-carrying capacity of 15 billion cubic feet exported in the previous week.

The Cameron LNG project exported three cargoes during the week under review. Sabine Pass and Cove Point plants exported two cargoes each.

EIA further noted that natural gas deliveries to liquefied natural gas export terminals edged up for the week. Pipeline deliveries reached 3.7 Bcf/d, up from 3.3 Bcf in the previous week.
