Venture Global Inc is set to transition its LNG sales approach, focusing on long-term customer contracts from its Louisiana export terminal. According to Yahoo Finance, the company will soon complete the commissioning of its Calcasieu Pass facility, which obligates it to fulfill previously signed contracts. This shift comes as Venture Global faces arbitration claims from major companies like Shell and BP, who allege the company delayed plant commissioning to exploit higher spot prices.
Meanwhile, Venture Global’s Plaquemines LNG plant, which began production in mid-December, is capitalizing on the spot market with significant returns. The facility is currently operating at 140% of its design capacity, having sold 29 cargoes at an average liquefaction fee of $7.26 per mmBtu within three months. Analysts forecast that the majority of sales from Plaquemines will continue on the spot market through 2025. According to IndexBox data, the global LNG market is poised for growth, driven by increased demand and strategic operations like those of Venture Global.
Venture Global’s revenue from LNG sales is projected to double to $9.98 billion in 2025, up from $4.972 billion last year, as per UBS’s analysis. The company aims to sell 550 cargoes from Plaquemines during its commissioning phase, potentially generating $10 to $12 billion. Despite this growth, the company faces legal challenges from contracted customers seeking arbitration over delayed supply agreements.
As the U.S. solidifies its position as a leading global LNG supplier, Venture Global remains a key player, second only to Cheniere in export capacity. The ongoing legal disputes underscore the complexities of balancing spot market opportunities with long-term contractual obligations.
