Cheniere has announced the production and export of its 5,000th cargo of liquefied natural gas from its U.S. Gulf Coast operations. Cheniere has reached the 5,000th cargo milestone faster than any other LNG producer worldwide.
Cheniere celebrated its 5,000th LNG cargo with the loading of the Yari LNG carrier, which departed Sabine Pass on Aug. 29 en route to Asia. Since the production of its first LNG cargo in 2016, Cheniere has supplied more than 340 million tonnes of LNG to markets worldwide, and the company’s LNG platform has grown to represent over 10% of total global LNG capacity.
“Producing and exporting 5,000 LNG cargoes is a remarkable achievement, and doing so in record time – just 10 years after our first cargo – makes it even more extraordinary,” said Jack Fusco, Cheniere’s Chairman, President and CEO. “This accomplishment was made possible by the hard work, dedication and commitment of our workforce, which forms the foundation of our industry-leading track record of operational excellence, safety and customer focus.”
