The Cheniere Energy plant is ​on the northeast side of Corpus Christi Bay on the La Quinta Channel in San Patricio County.

Long-range plans include construction of three “trains,” or liquefaction facilities, which turn natural gas into a liquid that can be more easily and cheaply transported long distances.

Each train will be able to produce 4.5 million tons of product a year. The first train is now online, and the second is expected to be finished in early 2019. 

Construction of the third train, which will take four years, should begin shortly after the completion of the second.​
