Venture Global and Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards Announce Proposed CP2 LNG Export Facility
"Venture Global has invested significantly in Louisiana's economy, and I am proud to celebrate this exciting new project with them," said . "The CP2 facility in Cameron will create more than 1,000 new permanent jobs and thousands of construction jobs in the area, which will have a significant impact on our economy. And it is incorporating clean energy technology that reduces the amount of CO2 released into the atmosphere, which is significant for our environment. As Louisiana pursues a goal of net-zero emissions by 2050, projects that feature carbon capture and sequestration allow our state to sustain industry without sacrificing our long-term carbon-reduction goals."
Today, Venture Global also announced that it has submitted a formal application requesting authorization from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to site, construct and operate the CP2 LNG facility and the CP express pipeline. CP2 LNG will build, own and operate a liquified natural gas (LNG) terminal with a nameplate liquification capacity of 20 million metric tonnes per annum (MTPA) of LNG. The CP Express pipeline will provide natural gas to the CP2 LNG facility.
