Young said LNG was exported to 52 nations from 2020-August 2024.

Those countries included Argentina, Brazil, Bahrain, Bangladesh, China, Colombia, Croatia, Greece, India, Israel, Pakistan, Russia, the US, UK, UAE, South Korea, Japan and Jamaica.

Young declined to give information on the prices of the LNG exports to each of these countries, explaining, "Atlantic LNG (ALNG) is a privately-owned legal entity and accordingly this information cannot be provided."

ALNG was restructured last December. Previously, government only had shares of ten per cent and 11 per cent in trains one and four respectively.

Under the new arrangement, government has shares of ten per cent in trains two, three and four respectively.

Train one has been shut down since November 2020.

The new arrangement also allows third party gas, gas which does not come from ALNG's shareholders (BP, Shell and the National Gas Company – NGC) to be processed at ALNG's plant in Point Fortin.
