Background

The Point Comfort LNG Terminal is a proposed LNG terminal in Texas, United States. Point Comfort LNG's parent company, Lloyds Energy Group LNG, submitted an application to the US Department of Energy for long-term authorization to export LNG to free trade agreement countries in December of 2016. The company hopes to export up to 9 million tons of LNG per year for up to 25 years.

There have been no development updates in over four years, and the project is presumed to be cancelled as of 2020.
