The Number One Exporter of U.S. Liquefied Natural Gas
TotalEnergies is the leading exporter of U.S. LNG since 2021
Expanding U.S. LNG and Natural Gas is Key to the Energy Transition
TotalEnergies is the number one exporter of U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG), shipping more than 19 million tonnes annually (Mtpa) in 2025.
TotalEnergies brings its decades-long worldwide expertise in the LNG value chain - from production and processing to trading and shipping – to the U.S. market where the Company has invested in a number of major facilities along the Gulf Coast and Pacific Ocean.
TotalEnergies holds a 16.6% interest in Cameron LNG in Louisiana, exporting more than 4 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa), and offtakes LNG from major terminals in the United States, among them, Sabine Pass LNG, Freeport LNG, and Corpus Christi LNG.
In July 2025, Cameron LNG the marked successful production and export of its 1,000th cargo LNG, a significant milestone achieved just six years after its first commissioning cargo departed the facility on May 31, 2019.
Stategic Investments Boosting U.S. Export Capacity
In Baja California, Mexico, TotalEnergies holds a 16.6% stake in the 3.25 Mtpa Energia Costa Azul (ECA) LNG project. A key milestone was reached on July 9, 2026, with the export of the first LNG cargo to Asia using natural gas from the U.S. Permian Basin. Located on Mexico’s Pacific Coast, the terminal offers a shorter route to Asian markets, reducing shipping costs and associated emissions by avoiding transit through the Panama Canal.
In 2023, TotalEnergies announced that it is joining forces with GIP and NextDecade to participate in the Rio Grande LNG natural gas liquefaction plant in Texas, raising our Company’s estimated total U.S. LNG export capacity to more than 16 Mtpa by 2030.
