Southern California Telephone & Energy’s (SCT&E) LNG subsidiary has signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding (MoU) with an unidentified state owned utility from the Asia Pacific region to sell one million tons per annum (mtpa) of liquefied natural gas (LNG).

The state-owned utility will buy the LNG from SCT&E LNG’s planned development on Monkey Island in Cameron Parish, Louisiana, US.

SCT&E LNG member of board of directors Richard Ieyoub said: "The signed MOU provides the state-owned utility company 20-year access to Henry Hub-indexed LNG.

"This agreement is expected to bring SCT&E LNG revenues in excess of $4 billion over the life of the agreement."
