Zachry Group has been awarded the front-end engineering design (FEED) scope for the Lake Charles Methanol II Project, an initiative that will establish one of the world's largest low-carbon blue methanol facilities and rank as the fifth-largest methanol plant globally.

Located in Lake Charles, Louisiana, US, the plant is designed to capture approximately 1 million tpy of CO2, setting a new standard in sustainable methanol production and contributing significantly to industrial decarbonisation efforts.

The FEED phase, currently underway, will define the technical and economic foundations of the project and support its progression toward a final investment decision (FID), which is anticipated in 2Q26.

“We are honoured to partner with Lake Charles Methanol II on this transformative project,” said John Zachry, Chairman and CEO of Zachry Group. “This award reinforces our leadership in executing technically advanced, low-carbon solutions at scale. Together, we are setting the standard for sustainability in industrial development.”
