The Sabine Pass LNG Terminal is located along the Sabine Pass River on the Texas–Louisiana border, in Cameron Parish, Louisiana. Originally built as an LNG import and regasification terminal (commencing service in April 2008), it was converted and expanded into the first LNG export terminal in the lower 48 United States, commencing liquefaction operations in February 2016. Construction was carried out by Bechtel Energy across all six trains.
