US weekly LNG exports down, Henry Hub slightly up

The US exported sixteen LNG cargoes in the week ending January 13 while feed gas deliveries to liquefaction plants averaged 10.8 billion cubic feet.

Currently, the US has fifteen standard-size LNG trains and ten small-scale moveable modular liquefaction system units in operation across six export facilities.

These facilities have a combined LNG export capacity of 9.5 Bcf/d baseload and 10.8 Bcf/d peak, according to EIA.

As per the weekly shipments, five US terminals dispatched the sixteen cargoes during the week of January 7-13. The total capacity of LNG vessels carrying these cargoes is 59 Bcf.

This compares to twenty one cargo with the vessels’ capacity of 77 Bcf in the week before.
