Perth, Australia (ABN Newswire) - Liquefied Natural Gas Limited (ASX:LNG) (OTCMKTS:LNGLY) (LNGL or the Company) through its 100% owned project company, Magnolia LNG LLC (Magnolia), and Meridian LNG Holdings Corp (Meridian LNG) have mutually agreed not to extend the deadline for satisfaction of the conditions precedent to the Liquefaction Tolling Agreement beyond the current date of 31 December 2018. Magnolia and Meridian LNG executed the agreement on 22 July 2015 and entered into six extensions since then.
"LNG Limited is appreciative of the relationship we have enjoyed with Meridian LNG. However, this decision allows us to free up desired capacity from Magnolia LNG for offtakers that are more closely aligned with Magnolia's development needs," said Greg Vesey, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, LNG Limited.
LNGL continues to vigorously market Magnolia globally as the Company moves toward a final investment decision.
ABOUT MAGNOLIA LNG PROJECT
Magnolia LNG proposes to construct and operate up to four liquefaction production trains, each with a capacity of 2.2 mtpa or greater using the Company's patented OSMR(R) LNG process technology. Construction and operation includes two 160,000 m3 full containment storage tanks, ship, barge, and truck loading facilities, and supporting infrastructure. The LSTK EPC contract includes all elements of the project necessary to bring the facility into full guaranteed production operations. Magnolia LNG is fully permitted, having received its FERC Order and both FTA and non-FTA approval from the DOE. Final investment decision and initiation of construction is expected upon execution of sufficient offtake agreements to support financing.
