Trump Announces Taiwan Will Buy 30% of LNG From Alaska Pipeline Project

Bend, OR, October 13, 2026 —

Donald Trump announced that Taiwan has agreed to purchase 30% of the liquefied natural gas from an Alaska pipeline project. The announcement identifies Taiwan as the prospective buyer and the Alaska project as the source, but provides no further details about the reported agreement.

The information provided does not specify when or where Trump made the announcement, how much LNG the project is expected to produce, or what period the 30% figure covers. It also does not identify the project by name or state the value, price terms or delivery schedule of the purchases.

No information was provided about which Taiwanese entity would make the purchases, which companies are involved, or whether the reported agreement has been formalized in a contract. The announcement alone does not clarify what “30%” is measured against, such as the project’s planned output or another quantity.

The details available therefore describe Trump’s announcement, rather than the full terms or implementation of the reported arrangement. No information was provided about permitting, construction, financing or the project’s expected operating timeline. The summary also does not include a response from Taiwan or from any company associated with the project.

Further specifics—including the project’s identity, the basis for the 30% share, the purchase timeline and the parties to any agreement—were not provided. Without those details, the scale and practical terms of the announced purchases cannot be determined from the information available.
