The project has been plagued with problems and is behind schedule and over budget.

In March 2024, its then-lead contractor, Zachry Holdings, filed for bankruptcy and said the project was at least $2.4 billion over the original budget.

Zachry has since been replaced by McDermott International as lead contractor for Train 1 and the company has been in negotiations to take over the construction of the other two trains, or plants, associated with the project.

Golden Pass could become the 9th U.S. LNG exporter after it starts shipping. The U.S. is the world’s top LNG exporter.
