Approximately 150 000 m3 of LNG was loaded onto the LNG Jurojin vessel, which departed from the terminal yesterday.

Michael Smith, Founder, Chairman and CEO, Freeport LNG, said: “This first cargo loading is another significant step that gets us one step closer towards our start of commercial operations which is anticipated later this month.
