Current LNG facilities are already saturated as I understand it. It's an energetically expensive process: gas from production in the USA has to be piped to an export terminal, and then has to be liquified (large energy investment), shipped across the ocean, then gasified (another large energy investment) and fed into the European pipeline system. Suddenly expanding all that would require, well, a decade of investment and planning.
