Mexico's Energia Costa Azul LNG Terminal Ships First Cargo

Energia Costa Azul, Mexico's second liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facility, has shipped its first cargo from Phase 1 of the terminal. The initial shipment occurred on July 8.

The completion of this project triples Mexico's LNG export capacity, adding 0.4 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) of nominal export capacity from a single train.

The facility is located on the Pacific Coast and marks the first terminal in Mexico and the second in North America to be situated there, following LNG Canada. This location allows for shorter shipping routes to importers in Asia.
