Freeport LNG set to win US race for first new terminal
John McKay reports on the project that will bring imported LNG into Texas for the first time when it is completed in less than a year
Freeport LNG in Texas is winning the race to be the first onshore import terminal to open in the United States in 25 years as its project nears completion.
Imports to the US began with the construction of a terminal in Everett, Massachusetts, in 1971. The last mainland terminal to be constructed was Trunkline LNG’s Lake Charles facility in Louisiana, which was completed in 1982.
