The largest greenfield energy project financing in US history

Gastech Insight Series

In this special episode of the Gastech Insight Series, Paul Marsden, President of Bechtel Energy and Matt Schatzman, Chairman and CEO of NextDecade discuss the largest greenfield energy project financing in U.S. history.

With total investment topping $18.4bn, Rio Grande LNG is a totally unprecedented and globally important lower carbon energy project. So how did NextDecade and Bechtel team up to make history? In this, the final installment of the Gastech 2023 Insight Series, Paul Marsden and Matthew Schatzman discuss this one-of-a-kind undertaking.

By combining emission reductions associated with our planned carbon capture and storage project at Rio Grande LNG, responsibly sourced gas, and our pledge to use net zero electricity, we expect our LNG export facility to produce a lower-carbon intensive energy and provide a more sustainable LNG project to our customers around the world.
