Eagle Maxville Files DOE Export Application
Eagle LNG Partners Jacksonville II LLC (Eagle Maxville) has filed an application with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for authorization to export up to 2.8 Bcf/year (0.06 million tonnes) of LNG over a 20-year period to nations with and without a Free Trade Agreement with the United States. Eagle Maxville proposes to export the LNG from its LNG production and storage facility currently under construction at a site in west Jacksonville, Fla. Eagle Maxville states that the principal purpose of its Maxville Facility is to supply LNG to Crowley Puerto Rico Services, Inc.’s new LNG-powered Commitment Class ships, which will be used for trade between the U.S. mainland and Puerto Rico trade. Eagle Maxville requests authorization to export any remaining LNG supplies in ISO containers to serve industrial customers in the Caribbean Basin.
