What does LSEG data indicate about Golden Pass LNG's current operational status and recent natural gas intake?

According to LSEG data, Golden Pass LNG has taken in little to no natural gas over the past three days and appears to be offline. The facility, which has been commissioning its first LNG train since March 30 with intermittent start-and-stop periods, was requesting only about 20 million cubic feet of natural gas on Monday — far below the train’s capacity of roughly 800 million cubic feet per day — and had processed nearly 600 million cubic feet on June 23, a volume that led to flaring.

What is the planned export capacity of Golden Pass LNG once fully operational, and what recent environmental incident has been reported during commissioning?

When fully operational, Golden Pass LNG is expected to export more than 18 million metric tons per year of liquefied natural gas and process up to 2.6 billion cubic feet of natural gas per day. During commissioning, the plant processed nearly 600 million cubic feet of gas on June 23, resulting in flaring; in a filing with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, Golden Pass stated it is continuing commissioning and startup activities at its Sabine Pass facility and that the cause of the flaring remains under investigation.
