Though the amount of gas feeding U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facilities is on the decline, there’s no shortage of interest in the super-cooled gas given the bevy of recent deals brokered for Gulf Coast installations.
The United States is the world leader in exports of LNG, supported by the vast volumes of natural gas found in domestic shale basins. The federal government this week reported that LNG volumes were the equivalent of 15 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) last year and should average 16.4 Bcf/d in 2026.
