Archive addition: DOE posts CP2 LNG re-export application for up to 6 Bcf over two years
The 12 November notice concerns previously imported LNG and a requested term beginning on 15 January 2027.
The story explained
Archive addition: the application was filed on 5 November and is excluded from this run’s recent-news count. The U.S. Department of Energy posted docket 26-163-LNG on 12 November, giving notice of a CP2 LNG application filed on 5 November. It seeks authorization to re-export previously imported LNG, up to an equivalent of 6 billion cubic feet of natural gas.
The requested term is two years beginning on 15 January 2027. Exports would use the CP2 LNG terminal under construction in Cameron Parish, Louisiana, to countries capable of receiving ocean-going LNG cargoes where U.S. law or policy does not prohibit trade.
CP2 seeks to act both for itself and for other cargo owners. The page is an application-receipt notice, not a final approval. The 6 Bcf figure is a requested cumulative ceiling over two years, not daily throughput or additional liquefaction capacity.
Why it matters
Editorial assessment: this concerns cargo authorization boundaries and should be tracked separately from terminal construction and other export approvals.
