Venture Global has announced a major milestone! The company’s Plaquemines LNG facility in Louisiana has successfully loaded and shipped its first liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargo. Moreover, the cargo is already on its way to Germany. This marks a significant step in the company’s mission to provide clean and affordable energy to the world.
The inaugural shipment is aboard the Venture Global Bayou. This vessel is one of nine state-of-the-art LNG ships in the company’s fleet. Furthermore, this delivery to ENBW in Germany represents Venture Global’s ongoing commitment to meeting Europe’s energy needs. In fact, this brings the total number of LNG cargos sent to Germany since 2022 to over 60.
Venture Global CEO Mike Sabel stated, “I am extremely proud of our team whose relentless execution has enabled Venture Global to continue to meet milestones at exceptional speed. In just five years, Venture Global has built, produced and launched exports from two large-scale LNG projects which has never been done before in the history of the industry.”
The Plaquemines LNG facility boasts a 20 MTPA nameplate capacity. It has achieved this milestone ahead of schedule. This is because Venture Global’s innovative approach allows for simultaneous construction and production, maximizing efficiency and output.
Ultimately, this achievement underscores the company’s commitment to providing a reliable and timely supply of LNG. This is especially crucial in the current global energy landscape.
