Subsidiaries of Whistler Pipeline LLC and Cheniere Energy Inc. will move forward with the construction of the ADCC Pipeline, a new joint venture (JV) pipeline which will send natural gas from the Permian Basin to the Texas Gulf Coast for export as LNG.
The pipeline will support Cheniere’s plans to ramp up total liquefaction capacity on the Texas Gulf Coast. Cheniere currently boasts liquefaction capacity of approximately 45 million tonnes per annum (mtpa). Over the near- and long-term, the company plans to ramp up to around 60 mtpa and 90 mtpa respectively.
