FIRST LNG SHIP BUNKERING HUB IN US GULF COAST SECURES PERMITS TO START WORK.

The United States is taking a major step toward cleaner marine energy with the approval of its first dedicated LNG (liquefied natural gas) bunkering hub on the Gulf Coast. This landmark project, developed by a joint venture between Houston-based Pilot LNG and Seapath (a subsidiary of the Libra Group), has received final permits from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Coast Guard, clearing the way for construction to begin later this year. Located along the Texas City Ship Channel, the Galveston LNG Bunker Port (GLBP) is poised to supply LNG fuel to the growing fleet of LNG-powered vessels operating in the Houston-Galveston maritime region. As the global shipping industry seeks cleaner alternatives to traditional fuels, this $300 million facility will not only support the U.S. push for lower emissions but also position the country as a leader in LNG marine fuel supply. The hub, expected to begin bunker deliveries by late 2027, marks a significant leap in America’s commitment to sustainable energy and maritime innovation.
