Exxon, QatarEnergy JV asks US regulators for permission to re-export LNG from October 1
The company said it wants to re-export a cargo of LNG that it plans to import to cool down its export plant in Texas, which is still under construction. Cooling down the plant is often the final step before producing LNG.
Golden Pass is building an 18 million metric tons per annum (mtpa) LNG export facility in Sabine Pass, Texas, and plans to start exporting LNG later this year.
The project has been plagued with problems and is behind schedule and over budget.
In March 2024, its then-lead contractor, Zachry Holdings, filed for bankruptcy and said the project was at least $2.4 billion over the original budget.
Zachry has since been replaced by McDermott International (MCDIF.PK), opens new tab as lead contractor for Train 1 and the company has been in negotiations to take over the construction of the other two trains, or plants, associated with the project.
Golden Pass could become the 9th U.S. LNG exporter after it starts shipping. The U.S. is the world's top LNG exporter.

MAGA billionaire announces he's backing new school in four states with VERY apt name
Billionaire Bill Ackman is continuing his charge to change education in America as he's backing new, AI-assisted 'Alpha Schools' in four states. While much of Ackman's activism has been aimed at rooting DEI and ' woke ideology' out of the Ivy League schools that helped make him, Alpha Schools are aimed at K-12 education. Alpha Schools already exist in Texas, Florida and California and are coming to four states this fall, including a Manhattan campus, heading to Ackman's backyard, where he will become an ambassador. The schools use artificial intelligence and teachers are known as 'guides' - many of whom don't have traditional teaching backgrounds - who help 'speed-teach' two hour lessons to students. They claim that the two-hour, AI-software backed lessons teach students twice as much than a traditional school. Children are still kept active in the afternoons with 5-mile bikerides and AI-generated plans that allow children to explore personal hobbies and teaching practical skills like entrepreneurship, public speaking and financial literacy, according to WSJ. Ackman, whom some have hailed as the new Warren Buffett, hailed the program on social media: 'The first truly breakthrough innovation in K-12 education that I have seen since the Kipp Academy.' 'The bottom line: Alpha kids love school and have incredible outcomes.' While much of Ackman's activism has been aimed at rooting DEI and ' woke ideology' out of the Ivy League schools that helped make him, Alpha Schools are aimed at K-12 education Co-founder Mackenzie Price noted that social issues and politics are not allowed in her classrooms. 'We do not let anything - political, social issues - come in the way. We stay very much out of that,' she said. The schools are charging 'founding families' anywhere from $45,000 to $60,000 a year for tuition. Unsurprisingly, liberal teachers union head Randi Weingarten is not a fan of Price's ideas. 'Students and our country need to be in relationship with other human beings. When you have a school that is strictly A.I., it is violating that core precept of the human endeavor and of education,' she told The New York Times. Ackman has long been at odds with Harvard, criticizing the university for not doing enough to protect students from antisemitism. Early last year he launched an unsuccessful bid to get four candidates on the ballot for a governing board. The financier runs New York-based hedge fund firm Pershing Square Capital Management and has been a vocal supporter of Trump's policies on tariffs and spending. Harvard is 'a collection of buildings, nice real estate' located in Cambridge, Massachusetts next to the Charles River, he said. But its cutting-edge faculty, researchers and students could easily move elsewhere, he said. 'This is the best time in history to start a university.' He also again hit out at the school's governing board, saying it has become insular and that there is no mechanism to remove members the way there is in corporate America where investors can run board challenges.
