Technip Energies has landed a substantial new authorization from Commonwealth LNG, a Caturus company.
This is to advance the company's 9.5 Mtpa liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facility in Cameron Parish, Louisiana, a key step towards the project’s Final Investment Decision (FID).
The award, issued under the existing engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contract with Commonwealth LNG, allows Technip Energies to sustain critical project activities and maintain momentum ahead of FID. It follows a previous large authorization for long-lead equipment purchases.
The facility will feature six identical liquefaction trains, built using Technip Energies’ SnapLNG by T.EN modular and scalable technology.
Arnaud Pieton, CEO of Technip Energies, said: “We are pleased to continue advancing our work on the Commonwealth LNG project, preparing the project for a successful and timely Final Investment Decision. This new authorization represents a material step forward for the Commonwealth LNG project. It reflects the confidence in the project’s fundamentals, execution strategy, and its long-term relevance for the global energy security.”
For Technip Energies, a “substantial” award represents €500 million to €1 billion in revenue and has been recorded in Q1 2026 in the Project Delivery segment.
