These entities are poised to control the vast majority of the 34.5 Bcf/d, an equivalent of 42 percent of U.S. 2018 demand that has been approved for export by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to non-free trade agreement (NFTA) countries for periods of up to 30 years. The DOE plans to approve another 20.0 Bcf/d, an equivalent to 25 percent of 2018 demand, that is pending or in pre-filing to export. There is also growing ownership in U.S. LNG export terminals, natural gas resources, and importantly, direct or indirect control of firm natural gas pipeline transportation, which results in less access to, control, and availability of these resources and pipeline capacity for U.S. consumers, manufacturers, and power generators. Inadequate pipeline capacity at peak demand would prevent power plants from operating and threaten grid reliability.
