MPL's anchor project is a 14.1 mtpa West Coast North American LNG export facility located in Puerto Libertad, Sonora, Mexico

​​Anchor Project

• Location consists of an 1,100 acre site near Puerto Libertad, Sonora, Mexico
• 300 acres are dedicated to the anchor project
• Construction will commence through a phased approach:
  • Phase 1 includes the first 4.7 mtpa liquefaction train, one tank and one berth
  • Phase 2 consists of a second 4.7 mtpa liquefaction train and a second tank
  • Phase 3 completes the anchor project with a third 4.7 mtpa liquefaction train

Gas Supply and Pipeline Access

• Located a similar distance to Waha as U.S. Brownsville projects, and closer than Louisiana projects
• A robust network of existing, heavily underutilized natural gas pipelines with available capacity

​Shipping

• MPL's site offers a natural deep water port and wide navigation channel protected by the Baja Peninsula with a long history of panamax vessel transit to Puerto Libertad
• The site's proximity to Asia results in a significant shipping advantage with shorter transit time and ~45% lower shipping costs compared to U.S. Gulf of Mexico

• The location avoids the congested Panama Canal route and costs

Permitting

• All major permits required to construct and operate the facility have been received

• Advanced permitting enables the project to quickly accelerate to construction
• Future expansion is quicker through modification of existing permits

Growth

• Expansion is easily accommodated through the remaining 800 acres within the site,  site layout, and advanced permitting
• Repeatable design accelerates future growth
