(Tellurian, 2.Nov.2023) — Tellurian Inc. (NYSE American: TELL) continues to progress the production and sales of natural gas and the financing and construction of its Driftwood project.
President and CEO Octávio Simões said, “Tellurian’s upstream segment continues to provide growing natural gas production, improving significantly over the third quarter of last year, and we see natural gas prices on the rise through year end. We are having a number of discussions with counterparties for both equity partnership and liquefied natural gas (LNG) offtake for the Driftwood project and investment in the Driftwood Line 200/300 pipeline. We have invested over $1 billion to develop and advance construction of the fully permitted Driftwood project and remain on target to produce first LNG in 2027.”
