March 15 (Reuters) – Texas LNG’s proposed Brownsville liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminal in Texas took a step toward receiving federal approval for construction on Friday after staff at the federal energy regulator prepared a final environmental report. In the report, known as an environmental impact statement, staff at the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) concluded construction and operation of the project would result in some adverse environmental impacts, but those impacts “would not be significant” if the company follows recommendations in the report. The FERC commissioners take the staff’s recommendations into consideration when they decide on the project. FERC has said it would make a decision on the plant around June 13, according to the company’s website. Texas LNG said on its website it plans to make a final investment decision to build the plant in 2019 with first LNG expected to be produced in 2023. The project is designed to produce up to 4 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) of LNG, which is roughly 0.5 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd) of natural gas. One billion cubic feet is enough gas to fuel about 5 million homes for a day. Texas LNG’s project is one of dozens of LNG export terminals under development in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
