FERC Issues Commonwealth LNG’s Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review

Commonwealth LNG has announced that the US Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) has issued Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review for it’s Calcasieu LNG project.

The project encompasses the construction of one liquefied natural gas plant, including six gas liquefaction trains and appurtenant facilities. Each train will have a liquefaction design capacity of approximately 1.4 million metric tons per annum (MTPA) for a total nominal liquefaction capacity of 8.4 MTPA.

Located on the west side of the Calcasieu Ship Channel, near the entrance to the Gulf of Mexico, the Project will include six LNG storage tanks each with a capacity of 40,000 m 3, one marine loading berth capable of loading LNG carriers up to a capacity of 216,000 m 3, and a 3.04-mile long, 30-inch diameter pipeline that will connect the LNG Facility with existing intrastate and interstate pipelines for the purpose of supplying gas to the Project.

“We are very pleased to receive FERC’s Issuance of Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. It confirms that our project remains on schedule to take FID in Q1 2021 and start commercial operations in Q1 2024,” said Paul Varello, Commonwealth LNG’s President and CEO.
