Texas-based Galveston LNG Bunker Port (GLBP) – a joint venture between Seapath and Pilot LNG – has selected NV5 LNG Engineering Services (NV5 LNG) as the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractor to build the new liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal.
With an initial capacity of 360,000 gallons per day (200,000 metric tons per year), the terminal at Shoal Point in Texas City, Texas, is set to provide bunker fuel for ships in the greater Houston-Galveston region. Reportedly, the facility will serve as a platform to supply conventional LNG, renewable LNG, and synthetic e-LNG by fuel barge to the expanding fleet of LNG-fueled vessels.
