Cheniere Energy Partners owns and operates a facility in Louisiana that cools natural gas into liquid form so it can be shipped overseas to buyers like power companies and energy traders. The company also owns a pipeline that brings natural gas to the liquefaction plant from various sources. Liquefied natural gas, or LNG, is easier and cheaper to transport long distances by ship than gas in its normal state. The company was founded in 2003 and is based in Houston, Texas.
