US LNG exports hold steady in April 14-21

Total US exports of LNG were unchanged in the week ending April 21 from the previous seven-day period, according to the US Energy Information Administration (EIA).

The EIA reported on April 22 that 20 vessels laden with 73bn ft3 of LNG left US export terminals between April 15 and April 21. Eight vessels left the export terminal at Sabine Pass, operated by Cheniere Energy, and three left the Cameron facility, both in Louisiana. In Texas, five cargoes departed from Corpus Christi and three left from Freeport while one left from Elba Island off the coast of Georgia.

The volume and number of vessels leaving US export terminals were unchanged from the April 8-14, although the points of origin were different.

Piped exports and re-exports of natural gas last year were about twice as high as total LNG deliveries, though LNG exports are up exponentially from five years ago.

While exports were steady, a cold snap across much of the northern US led to increased demand. The US economy took in 0.4% more natural gas from Canada than it did during the previous reporting period. The price for Henry Hub natural gas, the US benchmark, has been on a steady path higher for much of April. It was at $2.65/mn Btu on April 21.
