A major breakthrough has been achieved by Golden Pass LNG, a joint venture between QatarEnergy and ExxonMobil, as it has successfully produced its first liquefied natural gas from the initial train of its export facility in Texas. This achievement marks an important step towards full operations at the facility, which is expected to supply global markets with much-needed energy resources.
The project's total capacity stands at 18 million tonnes per annum across three liquefaction trains, making it a significant player in the US LNG market. With this milestone reached, Golden Pass LNG is now one step closer to its target of exporting its first LNG cargo, which is anticipated to begin in the second quarter of 2026.
Golden Pass LNG's production marks a significant milestone in the US LNG market, which is expected to play a crucial role in meeting growing global energy demands.
