The facility is designed to feature two LNG trains, which, combined, will produce up to 10.8 million tpy of LNG. This is equivalent to approximately 1.4 billion ft3/d. For reference, 1 billion ft3 of gas is sufficient to fuel around 5 million homes for a day.
This signifies another major step towards receiving federal approval to begin construction.
