Meet Our Leader Octávio M. C. Simões
Senior VP & President
Sempra LNG

Sempra LNG, a subsidiary of Sempra Energy, leads the company’s efforts to develop, build and operate LNG receipt terminals in North America. We developed the first LNG receipt terminal on the west coast of North America and a second terminal in Louisiana near the Gulf of Mexico. The combined capacity of the facilities is 2.5 billion cubic feet (Bcf) of natural gas per day.

Energía Costa Azul, located in Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico, began operations in May 2008 and is capable of processing 1 Bcf of natural gas per day. The $975 million terminal is connected to natural gas pipeline systems that span across the northern border of Baja California and the United States border area. Cameron LNG is situated along the Calcasieu Ship Channel in Hackberry, Louisiana, 18 miles from the Gulf of Mexico and within 35 miles of five major interstate pipelines that serve nearly two-thirds of all U.S. natural gas markets. Cameron LNG is a $900 million LNG receipt terminal currently capable of processing up to 1.5 Bcf of natural gas per day.

We take pride in building our facilities to meet and exceed all safety requirements, in developing energy infrastructure that is compatible with the protection and preservation of the environment, and in creating innovative solutions for our client’s needs.

We believe in working for you and working with you.
