Energy Transfer Announces Suspension of Development of Lake Charles LNG

DALLAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Energy Transfer LP (NYSE:ET) announced today that it is suspending development of the Lake Charles LNG project in order to focus on allocating capital to its significant backlog of natural gas pipeline infrastructure projects that Energy Transfer believes provides superior risk/return profiles.
