The US will aim to export at least nine billion cubic metres of liquefied natural gas (LNG) over the next year via British terminals more than doubling the level exported in 2021.

The Prime Minister said: "Together the UK and US will ensure the global price of energy and the security of our national supply can never again be manipulated by the whims of a failing regime.

"We have the natural resources, industry and innovative thinking we need to create a better, freer system and accelerate the clean energy transition.
