JERA to Buy Haynesville Shale Gas Assets for $1.5 Billion

The deal seeks to lock in U.S. gas for JERA’s LNG portfolio with planned growth near Gulf Coast markets.

Overview

  • JERA Americas agreed to acquire the South Mansfield asset in Louisiana’s Haynesville Shale from Williams and GEP Haynesville II for $1.5 billion.
  • The properties currently produce more than 500 million cubic feet of gas per day and include about 200 undeveloped locations, with a plan to lift output to 1 billion cubic feet per day.
  • The acreage spans established gathering, treating and transport systems located close to Gulf Coast LNG terminals and data center hubs.
  • The transaction remains subject to customary closing conditions, including CFIUS review, with an expected close by the end of 2025.
  • JERA frames the move as supply-chain diversification that complements its U.S. LNG offtakes and new 2025 supply deals totaling 6.5 million tons per year.
