SUEZ LNG NA
Neptune LNG LLC is developing an LNG facility approximately ten miles off the coast of Gloucester, Massachusetts. This facility will provide a substantial new supply of natural gas to the New England region.
Clean and energy efficient, natural gas has become a mainstay throughout New England for heating homes and generating electricity. During the next two decades, the region's demand for natural gas is forecast to grow by 1-2% per year. At this rate of growth, New England could face a shortfall in 2010 without new supplies of natural gas.
The Neptune project will provide an average of 400 million cubic feet of natural gas per day -- enough to serve 1.5 million homes daily. On very cold days and other periods of peak demand, Neptune can increase its delivery rate to 750 million cubic feet per day.
