Texas-Based LNG Plant Planned
Applied Natural Gas Fuels, Inc. has purchased 31 acres of land in the RailPort Business Park in Midlothian, TX to build a multi-liquefier LNG production platform previously announced in September 2013.
The platform will consist of up to five liquefiers with a production capacity of 86,000 gallons/day of LNG liquefier and a total on-site storage of 1.5 million gallons of LNG.
In addition to formally acquiring the land, the company has executed purchase orders for all long-lead items such as storage tanks, production skids and the electric motor and compressor unit.
The Midlothian LNG Plant is expected to be operational in early 2015 and will focus on end users in the high-horsepower, trucking, E&P, rail, marine, remote power generation and mining markets that currently use diesel fuel and are interested in converting to a lower-cost, cleaner-burning alternative.
