Cameron LNG, the subsidiary that owns and operates the Louisiana LNG export facility capable of producing roughly 12 million mt/year of LNG, asked the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission in a January 18, 2022, filing to approve the amended plans. The amendment would let the company pursue a 6.75 million mt/year, single gas liquefaction train expansion, in place of an existing authorization for a two-train expansion that would have added a total 9.97 million mt/year of production capacity. FERC approved a permit for the two-train project in 2016.

The subsidiary estimated, in a project schedule included in the filing, that FERC could approve its permit amendment by January 2023 to facilitate the start of construction by April of that year. The developer said commercial service could begin in the third quarter of 2027, nearly three years later than the currently permitted time for completing the project.

Cameron LNG is a joint venture of Sempra Energy subsidiary Sempra LNG, TotalEnergies, Japan's Mitsui, and a company jointly owned by Mitsubishi and Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha. Sempra indirectly holds 50.2% of the Cameron LNG export project.
