Transaction Price Allocated to Future Performance Obligations

Because many of our sales contracts have long-term durations, we are contractually entitled to significant future consideration which we have not yet recognized as revenue. The following table discloses the aggregate amount of the transaction price that is allocated to performance obligations that have not yet been satisfied:
March 31, 2025 December 31, 2024
Unsatisfied
Transaction Price
(in billions)		 Weighted Average Recognition Timing (years) (1) Unsatisfied
Transaction Price
(in billions)		 Weighted Average Recognition Timing (years) (1)
LNG revenues $ 43.4  7 $ 44.4  7
LNG revenues—affiliate 0.6  1 0.7  1
Regasification revenues 0.5  3 0.5  3
Total revenues $ 44.5  $ 45.6 
(1)The weighted average recognition timing represents an estimate of the number of years during which we shall have recognized half of the unsatisfied transaction price.

The following potential future sources of revenue are omitted from the table above under exemptions we have elected: (1) all performance obligations that are part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less and (2) substantially all variable consideration under our SPAs and TUAs that is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation or to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer a distinct good or service that forms part of a single performance obligation when that performance obligation qualifies as a series. The amount of revenue from variable fees that is not included in the transaction price will vary based on (1) the future prices of the underlying variable index, primarily Henry Hub, throughout the contract terms, to the extent customers elect to take delivery of their LNG, (2) adjustments to the consumer price index and (3) the outcome of certain contingent events, including the achievement of milestones upon which delivery of LNG under certain contracts is conditioned. Certain of our contracts contain additional variable consideration based on the outcome of contingent events and the movement of various indexes. We have not included such variable consideration in the transaction price to the extent the consideration is considered constrained due to the uncertainty of ultimate pricing and receipt.

The following table summarizes the percentage of variable consideration earned under contracts with customers included in the table above:
Three Months Ended March 31,
2025 2024
LNG revenues 63  % 50  %
LNG revenues—affiliate 75  % 63  %
Regasification revenues 8  % 8  %
