HOUSTON, Feb 20 (Reuters) - Cheniere Energy LNG.N plans to aggressively pursue liquefied natural gas regulatory permits now that U.S. President Donald Trump is in office, thereby reducing regulatory risks for future growth, the company's CEO Jack Fusco said on Thursday.
Cheniere plans to double its current LNG production to 90 million metric tonnes per annum (MTPA) by building more export facilities at Sabine Pass and Corpus Christi, both in Texas, Fusco also said.
Construction on Cheniere Energy's Corpus Christi Stage 3 LNG plant is currently moving ahead of schedule, Fusco added.
