Location Advantages
Our site is located at the Port of Brownsville in South Texas on approximately 1,000 acres. The site has the following advantages:
- Access to abundant natural gas resources
- 15,000 feet of frontage on an uncongested waterway
- A history of fewer and less severe weather events than other U.S. Gulf Coast locations
- Access to abundant skilled labor
- Favorable geotechnical conditions


Jobs
We are growing with the Rio Grande Valley (RGV) community. Rio Grande LNG (RGLNG) is providing more than 5,000 construction jobs and approximately 700 long-term jobs in the RGV once the facility is operating. We expect a vast majority of the onsite workforce to be from the RGV.
Community Commitment
We are committed to the RGV community and foster long-term partnerships with local stakeholders to create value, provide opportunities, and contribute to a thriving community for all. Since announcing the positive final investment decision on Phase 1 of RGLNG in 2023, the project’s economic impact has totaled approximately $250 million in spending with local businesses and more than $2 million in community investments and charitable giving.


Carbon Capture and Storage
We are exploring a potential carbon capture and storage project at RGLNG. We are evaluating subsurface and technical options, as well as potential avenues for commercialization.
