US LNG Feedgas Demand Hits Highest Level Since April
US LNG feedgas demand has reached its strongest level since late April, according to recent data from NGI's Entropic Analytics. Deliveries to US export terminals totaled 19.6 Bcf/d on Friday, a significant increase from the previous week and month averages. This surge in demand is largely due to the return of Freeport LNG's summer turnaround at its 16.5 Mt/year Texas terminal, which had previously limited intake.
The Corpus Christi LNG facility has also seen increased feedgas deliveries, with nominations on the Corpus Christi Pipeline holding steady at roughly 2.7 Bcf/d. Scheduled quantities have stayed above 2.6 Bcf/d for 11 consecutive gas days, indicating a sustained level of demand.
US LNG exports transiting the Suez Canal have also seen significant growth, totaling 7.31 Mt in the first eight months of the year, up 42% from the same period last year. Egypt has taken nearly all of these volumes, with US deliveries through the Strait of Hormuz having stopped entirely since September 2025.
