Texas GulfLink, an affiliate of Dallas-based Sentinel, has received a permit from the U.S Environmental Protection Agency (EPA ) for its offshore deepwater crude oil export terminal near Freeport, Texas.

EPA’s Clean Air Act (CAA) permit for the proposed offshore Texas GulfLink (TGL) deepwater port, for which Sentinel Midstream unveiled a plan in February 2019, is said to allow a first-of-its-kind use of vapor capture and control technology mounted on an offshore support vessel at TGL’s proposed deepwater port about 30 miles southeast of Freeport.
