Read MoreHide Full Article
Houston, TX-based Cheniere Energy Partners, L.P. (CQP - Free Report) – a subsidiary of liquefied natural gas exporter Cheniere Energy Inc. (LNG - Free Report) – is set to take control of the third liquefaction train at Louisiana facility.
Construction of the Train 3 of the Sabine Pass liquefaction project was completed by the contractor Bechtel Oil, Gas and Chemicals, Inc. on Mar 28. Upon the completion, Bechtel turned over the custody of the train to Cheniere Energy Partners as the train is ready to operate. Train 3 is set for its first commercial delivery in June under a 20-year supply contract with Korea Gas Corporation. With the completion of Train 3, revenues of the partnership are likely to benefit from the increased LNG sales.
Cheniere Energy Partners intends to construct six liquefaction trains at Sabine Pass. Construction of the Trains 1, 2 and 3 are completed. The partnership has requested regulatory approvals in March to commence commissioning activities at the Train 4 and has been permitted for the same. While Train 5 is under construction, Train 6 is being commercialized.
Each train has an estimated nominal production capacity of 4.5 million tons per annum of liquefied natural gas. Train 4 and Train 5 are expected to begin exporting in the second half of 2017 and in 2019 respectively.
Cheniere Energy Partners is also developing a liquefaction and export terminal in Corpus Christi, TX. Trains 1 and 2 are under construction, and Train 3 is permitted.
