Sabine Pass is granted an NGA Section 3 authorization to
site, construct, and operate facilities to liquefy and export
domestically produced natural gas.
On April 16, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC)
granted Sabine Pass Liquefaction and Sabine Pass LNG (collectively,
Applicants) authorization to construct and operate facilities to
liquefy and export domestically produced natural gas at the
existing Sabine Pass Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) terminal in
Cameron Parish, Louisiana.1 The project will be
constructed in two stages, each with two LNG process trains
containing gas treatment facilities, gas turbine-driven refrigerant
compressors, cold boxes and heat exchangers for cooling and
liquefying natural gas, waste heat recovery systems, and other
facilities. Upon completion, the terminal will operate
simultaneously as a bi-directional LNG facility for export and
import service. The facilities will enable the companies to liquefy
