Rio Grande LNG
To meet global demand for lower-carbon energy, NextDecade is constructing the first three liquefaction trains (Phase 1) at Rio Grande LNG (RGLNG) in Brownsville, Texas. The facility has approximately 48 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) of potential liquefaction capacity under construction or in development. Trains 4-5 are currently being commercialized, and Trains 6-8 are in development and beginning the permitting process. Sufficient space exists at the site for development of up to 10 liquefaction trains, making RGLNG potentially one of the largest LNG production and export facilities in the world.
Situated on a 984-acre site on the banks of an uncongested deepwater channel, the site benefits from access to nearby abundant natural gas resources and historically fewer and less severe weather events than other U.S. Gulf Coast areas.
Experience: Our leadership team is comprised of professionals with significant experience developing, marketing, financing, and operating LNG and CCS projects around the world
Location: 984-acre project site on a deepwater waterway, benefiting from access to a skilled workforce and extremely favorable soil conditions
Abundant Gas Supply: The State of Texas offers the deepest inventory of economic natural gas in the world, with the Permian Basin and Eagle Ford Shale together holding an estimated 700 trillion cubic feet of remaining low-cost resource
World-Class Partners: Rio Grande LNG is working with industry leading joint venture partners: Global Infrastructure Partners, TotalEnergies, GIC, and Mubadala, and is enjoying cost and schedule certainty through its collaboration with Air Products, Bechtel, Whistler LLC, and Baker Hughes
Under Construction: Phase 1 of Rio Grande LNG is now under construction
More Sustainable LNG: Combining emissions reduction associated with our proposed carbon capture and storage project, responsibly sourced gas, and our pledge to use net-zero electricity
“NextDecade is constantly demonstrating its commitment to Cameron County and communities throughout the Rio Grande Valley. We are eager to make the Valley a center for low carbon intensive energy and emissions reduction, demonstrating the positive impacts of high-skilled job creation and the international competitiveness of more sustainable U.S. energy supply.”
