People ask...why have the Americans built an LNG export plant(Sabine Pass,...Cheniere, a 7 train operation)..Port Charles LNG is near completion..and three other LNG plants are under construction....for a total of 5..so far..

These are brownfield operations...not from scratch...15 years ago or so, the USA was contemplating becoming a major LNG importer...So they built many multi-billion dollar LNG regasification plants, receiving terminals...then the fraccing revolution opened up...gas gas gas and more gas, here, in USA, everywhere around the world has gobs of gas(most places)even China...So, USA LNG projects have converted regasification plants originally built to receive LNG to LNG export plants thus saving companies almost 50%...$billions in saving, ..Brownfield versus greenfield....now a massive glut going out to at least 2030...

BC's LNG sham has turned to pixie dust
