*Cheniere Corpus Christi LNG or Texas LNG and Sinopec?*


**Note Corpus Christi was devastated by Hurricane in the 1970s and again by
recent Hurricane Harvey. Cheniere has 2 trains currently under
construction and plans for additional liquefaction trains to be built
later. *


*Along with Cheniere and Texas LNG, Delfin Midstream is the 3rd Texas-based
LNG company visiting China with President Trump's trade mission
delegation. The 4th LNG/NG company is Alaska Gas. *


One of the biggest deals the Trump administration is currently negotiating
is a multibillion-dollar energy investment from Chinese oil and gas giant China
Petroleum & Chemical Corp. <https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/386:HK> that
would bring thousands of new jobs to hurricane-ravaged areas in Texas and
the U.S. Virgin Islands <https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/ARIASII:VI>. Many
of the deals, including the China Petroleum investment, are expected be in
the form of nonbinding memorandums of understanding, not contracts.

Among the companies tentatively listed as working on China-related deals in
conjunction with the trip, according to a government document obtained by
Bloomberg News, are General Electric Co.
<https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/GE:US>, Honeywell International Inc.
<https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/HON:US>, Westinghouse Electric Co.
<https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/593121Z:US> , Alaska Gasline Development
Corp. <https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/1485031D:US>, the Boeing Co.
<https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/BA:US> and Qualcomm Inc.
<https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/QCOM:US> The companies represent a variety
of sectors from life sciences to heavy machinery. Other companies that may
have deals in progress, according to the document, include Cheniere Energy
Inc. <https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/LNG:US>, Terex Corp., Thermo Fisher
Scientific Inc. <https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/TMO:US>, Applied Materials
Inc. <https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/AMAT:US>, Caterpillar Inc.
<https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/CAT:US>and Blackstone Group
<https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/BX:US>.


Details of the project in the hurricane zones in Texas and the Virgin
Islands are yet to be finalized, but the Chinese company, known as Sinopec,
is expected to partner with ArcLight Capital
<https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/180323Z:US>, a Boston-based infrastructure
investment firm, and Freepoint Commodities LLC
<https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/0090124D:US>, a Connecticut commodity
trading firm. The deal is expected to be worth more than $7 billion in
investments in the U.S.

*700-Mile Pipeline*

The project would include construction of a 700-mile pipeline from the
Permian oil field in western Texas to the Gulf Coast, as well as a storage
facility there. Separately, Sinopec would expand the existing oil storage
facility known as Lime Tree in St. Croix, according to a person familiar
with the proposal.

The deal will still need final approval from officials in both the U.S. and
China.

But all of these development deals may provide a political boost to the
U.S. president, who focused much of his time on the campaign trail arguing
that he was uniquely qualified to attract jobs and investment back to the
U.S.

Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross said the U.S. hoped there would be “very
good deliverables” during Trump’s visit when he visited China last month.
