Historic LNG Shipment Marks New Era for U.S. East Coast Exports to Japan via Panama Canal

May 02, 2018 14:58

In a groundbreaking development for the U.S. energy sector, the LNG Sakura, a Bahamas-flagged ship, has successfully navigated the Expanded Panama Canal on its inaugural journey transporting liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the Dominion Energy's Cove Point LNG export terminal located on the East Coast to Japan. This landmark shipment, which left the Cove Point facility in Maryland on April 22, signifies the beginning of a significant new shipping route for American LNG following the terminal's inception. Notably, Cove Point is the second LNG export facility to begin operations in the United States, following the startup of Cheniere Energy's Sabine Pass in 2016. This milestone reflects a growing trend in overseas energy exports, as more cargoes are expected to follow the LNG Sakura on this route to Japan, opening up fresh opportunities for both countries in the energy market.
