Crowley inaugurated its LNG loading terminal in the southern town at Peñuelas in Puerto Rico. The facility marks a major milestone and supports the island’s economy with full-service, sustainable energy solutions to industrial and commercial operators in Central America and the Caribbean.
The facility will significantly grow the company’s service capabilities in Puerto Rico, delivering more than 94 million gallons of LNG annually. When operating at full distribution capacity, it will help power an aggregate of 120MW in cleaner energy while helping to reduce carbon dioxide and sulfur emissions.
Functionally, from Peñuelas, operators will load natural gas in its liquid form onto 10,000-gallon ISO containers for over-the-road transport to customer facilities around the island. Upon arrival at the customer’s site, the LNG will be re-gasified and used for power generation and energy consumption.
