LNG Purchases
On April 23, 2019, we entered into a master LNG SPA and related confirmation notices with an unrelated third-party LNG merchant. Pursuant to this SPA, we committed to purchase one cargo of LNG per quarter through October 2022. The volume of each cargo is expected to range from 3.3 to 3.6 million MMBtu, and each cargo will be purchased under DES terms. The price of each cargo will be based on the JKM price in effect at the time of each purchase.
