Venture Global LNG

Built World

Largest U.S. LNG exporter by facilities under development; stock recovered from IPO collapse; facing $1B+ arbitration damages but winning other contract disputes

When Cheniere Energy shipped America's first cargo of liquefied natural gas from Louisiana in February 2016, the United States was a net gas importer. A decade later, the country leads the world in LNG exports, with capacity set to more than double by 2029. Venture Global's aggressive expansion—including the $15.1 billion Calcasieu Pass 2 terminal under construction since mid-2025 and a major brownfield expansion of Plaquemines LNG announced in November 2025—positions the company to produce over 100 million metric tons annually by 2028, rivaling Qatar and Australia as a global LNG superpower.
