Business Wire
Energy Transfer LP (NYSE: ET) today announced its
subsidiary, Energy Transfer LNG Export, LLC (Energy Transfer LNG),
has entered into a 20-year LNG Sale and Purchase Agreement (SPA)
with Chevron U.S.A. Inc. (Chevron) related to its Lake Charles LNG
project. Under the SPA, Energy Transfer LNG will supply 2.0 million
tonnes of LNG per annum (mtpa) to Chevron. The LNG will be supplied
on a free-on-board (FOB) basis and the purchase price will consist
of a fixed liquefaction charge and a gas supply component indexed
to the Henry Hub benchmark. The obligations of Energy Transfer LNG
under the SPA are subject to Energy Transfer LNG taking a final
investment decision (FID) as well as the satisfaction of other
conditions precedent.
“We are pleased that one of the most prominent LNG industry
participants has selected Lake Charles LNG as a supplier,” said Tom
Mason, President of Energy Transfer LNG. “We believe that Lake
Charles is the most compelling LNG project on the Gulf Coast and we
continue to make significant progress towards full
commercialization of this project.”
“Chevron believes LNG plays an important role in meeting the
world’s need for energy while helping advance lower carbon
ambitions,” said Freeman Shaheen, President, Chevron Global Gas.
“This new long-term agreement demonstrates our focus on increasing
access to affordable, reliable, ever-cleaner energy supplies to
meet growing global demand.”
The Lake Charles LNG export facility would be constructed on the
existing brownfield regasification facility site and will
capitalize on four existing LNG storage tanks, two deep water
berths and other LNG infrastructure. Lake Charles LNG would also
benefit from its direct connection to Energy Transfer's existing
Trunkline pipeline system that in turn provides connections to
multiple intrastate and interstate pipelines. These pipelines allow
access to multiple natural gas producing basins, including the
Haynesville, the Permian and the Marcellus Shale. Energy Transfer
is one of the largest and most diversified midstream energy
companies in North America, with a strategic footprint in all of
the major U.S. production basins.
