The rating improvement follows two significant milestones: the commencement of commercial operations on April 15, 2025, with LNG deliveries under long-term agreements, and the successful completion of the lenders' reliability test in May 2025. S&P maintains a stable outlook, citing strong offtake agreements and expected sustained production at or above nameplate capacity.
