Glenfarne Energy Transition, the company behind Texas LNG, expects to reach a final investment decision by December, according to a report from Reuters.
Glenfarne CEO Brendan Duval made the statement while appearing on an LNG panel at S&P’s CERA Week on March 12.
Texas LNG is a 4 million metric tons per year facility in Brownsville, Texas. The project ran into permit difficulties in 2024 when the Court of Appeals, D.C. Circuit, vacated the permits awarded to the facility by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
Texas LNG was one of several projects the court took action against. The panel demanded amended environmental statements before the permits could be re-issued, potentially delaying some of the projects for months.
Prior to the ruling, Texas LNG’s original production date was in 2028.
Duval said Glenfarne was primarily waiting for the permit to be re-issued. The company announced in September, after the appeals court ruling, that it was financially secure enough to move forward with an FID.
The company has continued to develop the project and selected Kiewit Energy Group as the engineering, procurement and construction contractor for the project in November 2024.
