The company said the proposed facility will include two LNG trains capable of producing 13.5 million tonnes per annum, three LNG storage tanks, natural gas liquids and refrigerant storage, feed gas pre-treatment facilities, two berths and associated marine and loading facilities.
A separate application was filed with Ferc to build pipelines to deliver natural gas to the project.
“We are pleased to continue advancing the Port Arthur LNG project,” said Octavio Simoes, president of Sempra LNG & Midstream. “Our experience in developing, building and operating energy infrastructure will help us deliver a cost-competitive project to the global LNG market.”
Sempra signed a project development agreement in February 2016 with Australian LNG major Woodside Petroleum that provides a framework for the sharing of costs related to the Port Arthur project.
