Regasified

Manatee County Florida officials Thursday gave their blessing to Port Dolphin Energy LLC’s plans for a deepwater port to receive regasified liquefied natural (LNG) gas along with an associated gas pipeline off the coast of Tampa Bay, FL. The project still needs the approval of the U.S. Maritime Administration.

TransCanada Corp. has won the contract to build, own and operate a US$320 million pipeline in Mexico that would deliver regasified liquefied natural gas (LNG) from a terminal now under construction, the Calgary-based company said Thursday.

Excelerate Energy confirmed that its Explorer liquefied natural gas (LNG) tanker began offloading regasified LNG at the Northeast Gateway LNG terminal offshore Boston. A blockage in Algonquin Gas Transmission’s HubLine gas pipeline had prevented the offloading since the tanker arrived in January. Algonquin said its pipeline was back in service on the previous Monday. The cargo is the terminal’s second, an Excelerate spokesman told NGI. The first cargo was received in May 2008. The spokesman said he did not know when the next cargo was expected. Northeast Gateway consists of two submerged buoys that attach to specialized ships capable of regasifying LNG on board and sending it into a subsea pipeline. The HubLine system runs under the ocean floor across Massachusetts Bay and connects to the New England natural gas grid.

Foundering liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal developer Cheniere Energy Inc. continued to produce more red ink than regasified LNG in the second quarter as losses more than tripled from the year-ago period and more than doubled from the first quarter. However, investors took heart from the company’s announcement that it had secured $250 million in financing.
