Poten: Six To 10 North American LNG Projects Likely

Of the nearly 60 liquefied natural gas (LNG) import terminals on the drawing board for North America, only six to 10 are likely to be built by 2012, according to an energy consultant with Poten & Partners.

Speaking at Platts Fourth Annual LNG Conference in Houston on Thursday, Poten’s Gabriel Avgerinos forecast that one to two new LNG terminals will be built along the West Coast, one to two along the East Coast and four to six along the Gulf Coast. Avgerinos currently is general manager, LNG & Gas Consulting at Poten in New York City.
