Big Easy Magazine: Environmental groups seek federal intervention for Calcasieu Pass LNG terminal they deem polluter
With the help of former U.S. Senator Mary Landrieu, Arlington Virginia-based Venture Global – a producer of liquefied natural gas (LNG) sourced from “resource rich” North American natural gas basins – opened its first facility located in Cameron Parish at Calcasieu Pass in January, 2022. The company is currently exporting 12 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) and plans to increase that capacity to 60 MTPA in an effort to provide “clean, affordable energy to the world,” according to Venture Global LNG’s website.
