The next wave of LNG terminal construction demands more than concrete and cranes — it requires high-performance connectivity that supports real-time monitoring, automation, and safety. From front-end engineering to day-to-day operations, dedicated fixed wireless networks are playing an increasingly vital role in helping terminals like Cheniere’s Sabine Pass and Venture Global build smarter, faster, and more securely.
Supporting Every Phase of LNG Terminal Construction
LNG terminals are among the most complex industrial environments in the world. Each phase of construction and operation—from geospatial mapping and SCADA integration to environmental monitoring and worker safety—requires reliable connectivity. BroadbandOne’s dedicated point-to-multi-point wireless networks are engineered to deliver exactly that.
In the front-end engineering and design (FEED) phase, dedicated connectivity enables remote site mapping, sensor-based soil testing, and high-throughput drone surveillance—transmitting data in real time for faster decision-making and improved planning accuracy.
During construction, dedicated wireless networks provide secure, high-bandwidth connectivity for heavy equipment telemetry, digital project management tools, and safety alert systems. Workers can rely on consistent communications in hard-to-reach areas, while project teams gain full visibility into site progress and logistics.
In the commissioning and testing phase, these networks support time-sensitive SCADA system calibration and industrial automation testing—critical for ensuring operational readiness. Once the terminal is live, the same network enables ongoing equipment monitoring, video surveillance, access control, and environmental compliance.
Why Dedicated Wireless Networks Are the Right Fit
BroadbandOne’s fixed wireless model offers a dedicated, interference-free spectrum that is purpose-built for industrial use cases. Unlike public cellular or legacy LMR systems, which may serve mobile voice or general communications needs, dedicated fixed wireless provides:
- Guaranteed performance through licensed spectrum and managed infrastructure
- Built-in data separation to meet the stringent security needs of oil and gas operations
- Low-latency connectivity ideal for SCADA, IoT and automation
- Rapid deployment with no trenching, towers, or fiber construction required
- Cost-effective scalability, especially compared to private LTE solutions that require significant investment in hardware, software and expertise
While private LTE networks can deliver strong results, they often demand substantial time, budget and internal technical resources. BroadbandOne’s Telco as a Service (TaaS) model eliminates that burden. Our clients receive enterprise-grade connectivity with the speed and simplicity of a turnkey solution—without the long lead times or hidden complexity.
The Sabine Pass Expansion: A Prime Opportunity
According to LNG Prime, Cheniere Energy plans to begin construction on its Sabine Pass expansion in late 2026. This $8+ billion project will add significant capacity to the U.S. LNG export market — and integrating private wireless from the start offers big strategic advantages.
With BroadbandOne’s model, terminal operators gain immediate access to a secure, scalable communications foundation that supports:
- Real-time SCADA monitoring and data logging
- High-resolution video surveillance
- Predictive maintenance systems
- Site-wide telemetry and safety system integration
- Localized edge computing for data processing at the source
This type of network ensures that construction and operations teams don’t have to rely on public cellular or piece together multiple systems to stay connected. It’s a purpose-built backbone designed for critical industrial applications.
