US firm Cheniere Energy completed 37.6pc of the planned first two liquefaction trains at its Sabine Pass export project in Louisiana as of 30 June, slightly ahead of the planned 34.7pc completion rate, it said on 19 July. The first and second trains are on schedule to be substantially completed by February 2016 and June 2016, respectively. Cheniere previously told Argus that the first send-out cargo for each train is expected about three months before each of those completion dates. The third and fourth trains are due to start operating in 2016-17. Each train will have capacity of 4.5mn t/yr, equivalent to 16mn m~3/d of pipeline gas (AGL, June, p18).
