The United States was the top exporter of liquefied natural gas (LNG) during the first half of 2022, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) said in a July 25 report.
In the first six months of the year, U.S. LNG exports rose by 12 percent to an average of 11.2 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) compared to the last six months of 2021, the EIA said in a July 25 report. The growth in exports was attributed to an increase in LNG export capacity, rising global demand in Europe, and soaring international prices for natural gas and LNG.
