On Thursday, October 17, 2025, federal regulators approved Venture Global’s request to extend the commissioning period of its Plaquemines LNG plant in Louisiana. The approval allows the company to keep the facility in a commissioning stage before declaring full commercial operations. The extension gives Venture Global additional time to complete remaining rectification work and to align the plant’s operations with contractual obligations. It also enables the company to sell LNG on the spot market, potentially at higher prices, until full commercial operations commence. This regulatory decision is material to Venture Global’s financial performance, as it impacts the timing of revenue recognition and cash flow from the Plaquemines facility. The extension may delay the start of full commercial sales but could also provide flexibility to capitalize on favorable spot market conditions.
