| Work Detail |
Galveston LNG Bunker Port (GLBP), a joint venture (JV) between Seapath and Pilot LNG, is set to progress toward a final investment decision (FID), having received necessary construction authorizations from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and U.S. Coast Guard. Located on the Texas City Ship Channel in the Texas City industrial area, GLBP is said to be the first dedicated LNG bunkering facility in the U.S. Gulf Coast. On May 19, GLBP said the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) had issued its Section 408 and 404/10 authorizations for the small-scale LNG project under the Clean Water Act. Additionally, the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) had issued its Captain of the Port Letter of Recommendation (LOR) for the project’s Waterway Suitability Assessment (WSA) pursuant to Regulation 33 CFR 127. The latest milestone follows GLBP’s announcement in January that it had received its Texas Railroad Commission (TRRC) Water Quality Certification and the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) air permit. |
