March 2 (Reuters) - U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG)
company Freeport LNG's export plant in Texas was on track to
pull in about 1.2 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd) of natural
gas from pipelines on Thursday, Refinitiv Eikon data showed.
Energy traders have said any gas flows over 0.9 bcfd likely
mean that Freeport LNG has restarted the second of its three
liquefaction trains since each train can turn about 0.7 bcfd of
gas into LNG for export.
LNG export plants also use some gas to fuel other equipment
at the plant so flows above 0.7 bcfd do not necessarily mean the
startup of a second train, traders have said.
