Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information and Customer Concentration SEGMENT INFORMATION AND CUSTOMER CONCENTRATION
 
We have determined that we operate as a single operating and reportable segment. The measure of profit and loss regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) that is most consistent with GAAP is net income attributable to Cheniere, as presented in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. This measure contributes to the CODM’s assessment of performance and resource allocation, which includes monitoring of budget versus actual results, establishing compensation and deciding on capital allocation priorities. Significant expenses regularly provided to the CODM, and included
in the measure of profit and loss, are cost of sales, operating and maintenance expense and selling, general and administrative expense, as reported in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Also provided regularly to the CODM are changes in the fair value of our derivative instruments, which are inclusive of significant noncash items, which were $432 million in gains and $2.1 billion in losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively, and $574 million and $1.5 billion in gains for the same periods of 2025, respectively. Interest income, which is included in interest and dividend income on our Consolidated Statements of Operations, was $20 million and $54 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively, and $23 million and $88 million for the same periods of 2025, respectively.

The measure of segment assets is reported on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as total assets. Substantially all of our tangible long-lived assets, which consist of property, plant and equipment, are located in the U.S. Total expenditures for additions to long-lived assets are reported on our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The following table shows the concentration of our customer credit risk with 10% or more of total revenues from contracts with external customers and/or trade receivables, net of current expected credit losses and contract assets, net of current expected credit losses. Customers under common control are considered to be a single customer.
