Western LNG, LLC

Company Summary

Description

Western is a Houston-based company engaged in the development of North American liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facilities. Western is seeking to deploy innovative, low cost, mid-scale floating liquefaction technology at locations that have existing pipeline access to natural gas basins that are becoming stranded behind burgeoning shale production in North America. Western was founded by Davis Thames, former Senior Vice President of Cheniere Energy, Inc., which pioneered the development of LNG exports from the “Lower 48” of the United States at its Sabine Pass LNG terminal. Mr. Thames is joined by co-founder Andrew Goldman, Chief Investment Officer of Hildred Capital Partners and a long-term investor in the liquefied natural gas sector, and a seasoned team of executives experienced in the LNG and related energy infrastructure industries. The company’s development activities are supported by certain funds managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, LLC (NYSE: APO), a large, internationally recognized global alternative investment manager with over $245 billion in assets under management.
