A Corpus Christi Bay plant has started producing LNG ahead of schedule.

Happy Two-for-Tuesday!    

It seemed like a good idea to cover Cheniere’s Corpus Christi Stage 3 plant, ever since we spoke about Venture Global’s “Plaquemines LNG” plant last week and its first production and shipment.  

Did anyone happen to read the Oil & Gas Journal’s Daily Update Newsletter on January 3, 2025, their article titled, “Cheniere’s Corpus Christi Stage 3 produces first LNG”?  In the article, it speaks on Cheniere Energy Inc.’s Corpus Christi Stage 3 liquefaction project (CCL Stage 3) has started production of LNG from their Train 1, and they will continue start up through close of the first period. CCL Stage 3 project is ahead of schedule which is good news in light of all the setbacks which have been in the news in recent times for LNG plants along the Gulf Coast.  After Thanksgiving, the project was reported to be 75.9% finished which takes into account all the aspects of the project including engineering, purchasing of materials, and work which has been done as well as building.  Once the CCL Stage 3 project is closer to completion Bechtel Energy Inc. will turn over the plant to Cheniere Energy.  CCL Stage 3 project once completed will have seven liquefaction units and increase the plant’s output to over 25 million tons per year of LNG.  We wish them luck finishing the project.  If you would like to read more of the Oil & Gas Journal’s article, please click the link:   Cheniere’s Corpus Christi Stage 3 produces first LNG | Oil & Gas Journal.
