The Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management gives notice of receipt of an Application filed September 14, 2021 by Carib Energy (USA) LLC (Carib Energy), requesting blanket authorization to export liquefied natural gas (LNG) that previously had been imported into the United States from foreign sources in an amount up to the equivalent of 0.24 billion cubic feet of natural gas, per year, for a period of two years beginning on the earlier of 1) the date of first re-export of LNG by Carib Energy, or 2) five years from the date on which DOE/FECM issues an order granting the requested re-export authorization.  Carib Energy requests authorization to export previously imported LNG purchased primarily at the Crowley LNG Puerto Rico Truck Loading Facility in Peñuelas, Puerto Rico.  Carib Energy proposes the use of ocean-going carriers or approved IMO7/TVAC-ASME LNG containers (ISO containers) transported on ocean-going container vessels to any free trade agreement country or Non-Free Trade agreement country within Central America, South America or the Caribbean, which has or in the future develops, the capacity to import LNG delivered via ocean-going carriers and also via ocean-going container vessels carrying approved ISO containers, provided that trade with that country is not prohibited by United States law or policy.  Carib Energy requests this authorization on its own behalf and as agent for other parties who hold title to the LNG at the time of export. 

A Federal Register Notice will be issued for the application.
