LNG

Feb 16 (LNGJ) - US LNG exports numbered five carrier-loads from the Sabine Pass export plant in Louisiana in the week ending February 14, while a sixth vessel was lifting a cargo at the facility, according to the US Energy Information Administration weekly natural gas report. The EIA noted that Dominion Energy, the owner of the Cove Point liquefaction facility in Lusby, Maryland, is close to starting commercial operations. “The terminal began producing LNG on January 31 and commercial deliveries are expected to start in early March,” said the EIA.
