Woodside Louisiana LNG project has another stakeholder!

Happy Monday!  Hope you had an enjoyable weekend and didn’t get too wet on Saturday!  It’s a beautiful day and hopefully it will continue this evening.

We love a follow-up and well this fits the bill.  The Woodside Energy Group Ltd. (Woodside) the owner of the formerly known Driftwood LNG project now known as Louisiana LNG is in the news again.  Back in April Woodside announced they made their final investment decision and with their approval for additional time the project was moving forward (Check out our Blog on details). They recently had a groundbreaking ceremony for the project you may read about it in our blog earlier this month.  Well, Woodside made another announcement last week.   

Did anyone happen to read Oil & Gas Journal’s OGJ Daily Update Newsletter on October 23, 2025, their article titled, “Williams buys into Louisiana LNG, sells upstream Haynesville asset”?   In the article, it speaks on how Williams has bought a 10 percent stake in Woodside’s Louisiana LNG project, and they have a become the majority stakeholder in Driftwood Pipeline LLC. and will be investing $1.9 billion to the projects.  Williams will construct the 42-in OD Line 200 natural gas pipeline which will connect to the plant, and they will operate the pipeline.  In addition, Williams sold its South Mansfield upstream property to JERA Co. Inc. for almost $400 million coupled with deferred monthly payments for the next several years and the expected deal will be worth around $1.5 billion, and the deal should wrap-up by 2026.  We wish Williams a speedy completion of Line 200 LNG pipeline and Louisiana LNG project!  If you would like to read more of the Oil & Gas Journal’s article, please click the link: Williams buys into Louisiana LNG, sells upstream Haynesville asset | Oil & Gas Journal.
