Background

Energy World has proposed a mid-scale liquefied natural gas (LNG) production and export facility at Port Fourchon, LA. The proposed facility would eventually produce up to 2 million tons of LNG per year for export. The plant would also include a separate smaller scale liquefaction plant geared towards providing LNG to fuel the next generation of Offshore Supply Vessels (OSVs) powered by LNG and operating in the Gulf of Mexico. The facility would be constructed on a site of up to 150 acres located on port-owned property to the west of Belle Pass, which is located outside of the existing port development.

There have been no development updates since 2017, and the project is presumed to be shelved.
