QatarEnergy Eyes Major US LNG Deal
23 Oct
Summary
- QatarEnergy in advanced talks for LNG supply from Venture Global.
- Deal aims for at least 3 million metric tons of LNG annually.
- Venture Global is a key US LNG exporter with significant capacity.
QatarEnergy is currently engaged in advanced discussions with Venture Global, a prominent US liquefied natural gas (LNG) supplier. The negotiations aim to establish a long-term agreement for the supply of at least 3 million metric tons of LNG annually.
This potential pact is significant as Venture Global possesses the largest amount of uncommitted LNG capacity among US suppliers. The company is expected to become the second-largest exporter in the country upon the completion of its CP2 plant in Louisiana.
The development follows a recent announcement on Thursday, where Cheniere, the largest US LNG exporter, finalized a long-term deal with QatarEnergy. This agreement will supply 4 million metric tons per annum from 2031 to 2054, sourced from Cheniere's facilities in Louisiana and Texas.
