Description

The Elba Island LNG Terminal is a $2 billion LNG liquefaction facility made up of 10 modular, movable units designed to liquefy 2.5 million metric tons of LNG per year for export.

The Elba Liquefaction Company, a Kinder Morgan (KMI) joint venture with EIG as a 49 percent partner, owns the liquefaction units and other ancillary equipment. Certain other facilities associated with the project are 100 percent owned by KMI. The project is supported by a 20-year contract with Shell LNG NA, LLC, who is subscribed to 100 percent of the liquefaction capacity.
