ECA LNG
Providing Asia and other Pacific Basin markets access to U.S. natural gas from North Americas Pacific Coast.
Sempra Infrastructure and TotalEnergies are adding natural gas liquefaction capabilities to the Energia Costa Azul (ECA) LNG receipt, storage and regasification terminal, located north of Ensenada in Baja California, Mexico. Given its strategic location in Mexico’s West Coast, the project is geographically positioned to connect Asia, Pacific Basin and international LNG markets as well as potential markets on the west coast of Mexico to abundant natural gas supplies of the U.S. western states.
