Exclusive: Woodside struggles to sell LNG volumes at Louisiana LNG plant, sources say

Woodside Energy is having trouble selling LNG from its planned Louisiana export facility because its proposed liquefaction fees are above prevailing U.S. market rates. The issue points to weaker commercial competitiveness for the project and could pressure contract securing and project economics. The news is negative for Woodside but appears to be a project-level setback rather than a broad sector shock.
