Port Arthur LNG

Construction Updates

Construction on the project began shortly after a positive final investment decision was reached in March 2023. Sempra Infrastructure contracted with global engineering, procurement and construction firm Bechtel Energy Inc. for the construction of the project.

Port Arthur LNG continues to focus its community development initiatives on local priorities which include education and leadership development, environmental stewardship, and safety. Since 2015, Port Arthur LNG has invested more than $40 million to support Jefferson County communities, including working with local vendors to procure materials and services for the relocation of a 3.5-mile portion of Highway 87 and on grants to more than 60 local non-profits, schools and business development groups. The Port Arthur LNG project is expected to create an estimated 5,000 highly skilled jobs during construction and boost the economies in Port Arthur and Jefferson County.
