The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has issued an order granting Jordan Cove Energy Project’s (JCEP) request to amend its existing authority to export LNG to nations with a Free Trade Agreement with the United States from its proposed LNG terminal at Coos Bay, Ore. The order resets the date by which LNG exports must commence from December 7, 2021 to July 20, 2028, and lowers the authorized LNG export volume from 438 Bcf/yr to 395 Bcf/yr to match the terminal capacity reflected in JCEP’s renewed application pending before FERC for authorization to construct the terminal facility.
