Eagle LNG Selects EPC Firm for Florida Plant

Eagle LNG announced on January 13 it had hired Okhaloma-based Matrix Service for the engineering, procurement, fabrication and construction of its Jacksonville LNG export complex in Florida – a project worth around $500mn.

In a statement, Eagle LNG also said the complex, expected to produce 1.65mn LNG-gallons/day, would use technologies provided by Georgia-headquartered Chart Industries. The complex will include 12mn LNG-gallons of storage space, a marine terminal and truck-loading capabilities.

“Eagle LNG is experiencing a growing demand for LNG to serve small-scale export markets, while domestic demand for fuel-grade LNG continues to increase,” Eagle LNG CEO Dick Brown said. “We continue to build out LNG infrastructure across the country to meet these needs. Partnering with Matrix Service and Chart Industries provides service from concept through completion.”

The Jacksonville project aims to export small volumes of LNG to Caribbean power markets.
