Nov 12 (Reuters) - New Fortress Energy (NFE.O) , opens new tab has sought more time to file its third-quarter results, the U.S. liquefied natural gas company said on Wednesday, as it negotiates a debt restructuring amid an upcoming interest payment.

The company, which has delayed its quarterly filings throughout this year, said the outcome of the talks could affect what it discloses in its financial statements for the three months ended September 30.

New Fortress said it would assess how potential defaults under its debt agreements could affect its cash position if the extension is not granted.

Long-term debt stood at $7.8 billion, as of June 30.

The company has struggled to secure long-term LNG supply for power plants in Latin America because it lacks an investment-grade credit rating, forcing it to buy fuel at higher prices.

The vast majority of the company's revenue is generated outside the United States, primarily from Latin America and the broader Caribbean region.

Last year, New Fortress began exploring options such as bringing in strategic partners or selling assets after deferring shareholder dividends to preserve cash and working out a deal with bondholders to push back maturities.
