Cheniere’s subsidiaries Corpus Christi Liquefaction and Cheniere Corpus Christi Liquefaction Stage III have signed gas supply agreements (GSA) with EOG Resources.
As part of the long-term agreements, EOG will sell natural gas to Cheniere for 15 years from early next year.
The company will initially sell 140,000MMBtu/d and increase the quantity to 440,000MMBtu/d.
Cheniere will own and market the LNG associated with 140,000MMBtu/d of the gas supply.
EOG will receive a price based on the Platts Japan Korea Marker (JKM) for this gas and will sell the remaining 300,000MMBtu/d to Cheniere at a price indexed to Henry Hub.
Cheniere Gas Supply senior vice-president Corey Grindal said: “We are pleased to partner with EOG, one of the largest independent natural gas producers in the United States, on our second integrated production marketing (IPM) transaction which is expected to support Corpus Christi Stage III.
