## Resource

Ten years after the first LNG cargo left Sabine Pass, Charif Souki reflects on the unlikely path that helped launch the U.S.into a top global natural gas exporter. In this episode, Souki recounts the founding of Cheniere Energy Inc., the launch of Gulf Coast exports and the rapid rise of U.S. natural gas production. From technology and shale productivity gains to the next generation of LNG projects, Souki offers a candid look at how the industry transformed over the past decade — and what the next 10 years may hold.
