Eagle LNG Partners informed it has achieved a major milestone by submitting drafts of resource reports 1 through 12 to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
With this submission, the project is closer to receiving the necessary permits and approvals to commence construction and operation of its planned 0.55 mtpa liquefied natural gas facility in Jacksonville, Florida, the company said in a statement.
The Jacksonville facility will service local domestic applications and nearby small-scale export markets.
“Eagle LNG is bullish about the potential for natural gas to displace heavy fuel oil and diesel,” said Dick Brown, CEO of Eagle LNG .
FERC and relevant government agencies will review the draft reports and provide feedback to Eagle LNG.
Eagle LNG continues to prepare draft Resource Report 13, engineering and design material, and anticipates filing in due course. Upon FERC review of all 13 resource reports, and Eagle LNG addressing concerns identified by FERC, Eagle LNG anticipates FERC will grant filing status.
