Eagle LNG announced today it has selected Matrix Service for the engineering, procurement, fabrication and construction of a LNG export facility to be built in Jacksonville, Florida. The approximately $500 million facility will have a production capacity of 1.65 million LNG-gallons per day with 12 million LNG-gallons of storage plus 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," said Dick Brown, CEO of Eagle LNG.
The Jacksonville LNG Export Facility will serve the Caribbean loading LNG onto small, ocean-going vessels for export to countries currently using heavy fuel oil or diesel for power generation.
"We are extremely proud to have been selected by Eagle LNG to provide turnkey solutions for this project, which will expand their ability to provide clean, low-cost, domestically produced natural gas to both domestic and global markets,” said Matrix Service Company CEO John R. Hewitt.
Eagle LNG received both FERC authorization and Department of Energy LNG export approvals for the Jacksonville LNG Export Facility in late 2019.
