TotalEnergies has taken a new step in its consolidation as a global leader in liquefied natural gas by signing a letter of intent with Glenfarne, the lead developer of the Alaska LNG project. This agreement includes the purchase of 2 million tons per year of LNG over a 20-year period, subject to the project’s final investment decision.

TotalEnergies Highlights the Project’s Geographic Advantage

The Alaska LNG project is positioned as one of the key pieces to connect U.S. energy supply with Asian markets. Located on the Pacific coast, it represents the only federally licensed terminal in this region, providing direct access to Asia and increasing the continent’s energy resilience.

TotalEnergies highlights the geographic relevance of the project, noting that its location enables optimized logistics routes to Asian customers. This alliance reinforces the company’s strategy to diversify its supply sources and strengthen its position in the North American LNG market, where it has already led exports with 19 million tons in 2025.

A Project Backed by Industry and Policy

For Glenfarne, the agreement with TotalEnergies is interpreted as crucial support for the project’s viability. With institutional backing in the United States and access to significant gas reserves, the Alaska liquefaction plant aims to meet growing Asian energy demand with a competitive and stable supply.

TotalEnergies, integrated across the entire natural gas value chain, has developed a robust network in North America, with assets in Texas, Oklahoma, and offshore operations. Additionally, it participates in other major projects such as Cameron LNG, Rio Grande LNG, and Ksi Lisims LNG, strengthening its presence in the region.

With this new letter of intent, TotalEnergies reaffirms its commitment to more accessible and sustainable energy, and underscores its ambition for natural gas to represent 50% of its energy mix by 2030, advancing toward a significant reduction in emissions and promoting the global energy transition.
