US LNG: Energy Transfer Rumored to Delay Lake Charles FID
Energy Transfer (ET) plans to delay its FID of the Lake Charles LNG project to 1Q2026 according to people familiar with the matter Bloomberg reported this morning.
- The company had communicated to make FID by the end of 2025 but has pushed the target out a quarter due to the need to finalize contracts and rising costs on the project.
- The ET project plans to convert an existing LNG import facility to a 16.45 MTPA (~2.2 Bcf/d) LNG export facility, consisting of 3 liquefaction trains at 5.5 MTPA each.
- In August, the DOE granted ET additional time to commence exports to non-FTA countries, extending the deadline from December 2025 to December 2031, and FERC extended the construction and in-service deadline to December 2028.
