Our Australian export terminal operation comprises inloading, stockyard and outloading facilities that primarily handle metallurgical coal mined in the central Bowen Basin region of Queensland, Australia. Our terminal forms an essential component in the global steel production supply chain. The export terminal operation generates revenues under a regulatory regime that provides us with take-or-pay contracts. These contracts include: (i) a capacity charge that is allocated to users based on their contracted capacity and (ii) a fixed and variable handling charge associated with operating and maintaining the terminal. The capacity charge is paid by users irrespective of their volumes shipped through our terminal facility. The handling charge (both fixed and variable) is structured to be a complete pass through of the costs charged for terminal operations and maintenance. The terminal is fully contracted to June 2028 on a 100% take-or-pay basis with evergreen renewal options for customers. Current access pricing agreed with all terminal customers will apply for the period from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2031 (or contract expiry, if earlier).

Our U. S. LNG export terminal is located in Louisiana and is one of the largest LNG production facilities in the world. The terminal includes six operational liquefaction trains each capable of producing approximately 5 mtpa, of LNG resulting in aggregate nominal production of approximately 30 mtpa of LNG. In addition, the terminal has five LNG storage tanks, vaporizers with regasification capacity of approximately 4 Bcf/d, three marine berths and is authorized to export approximately 1,700 Bcf per year of mostly domestically procured natural gas to countries around the world. Revenues are primarily generated from largely fixed price take-or-pay agreements with counterparties under long-term contracts. Existing contracts have a weighted average remaining length of approximately 13 years and represent approximately 80% of total production capacity.
