The arrival of the American Energy , the first U.S. LNG tanker deployed by Crowley and Naturgy , is seen as an improvement to Puerto Rico’s energy infrastructure, with the goal of ensuring a supply of liquefied natural gas ( LNG ) and sustainable development for the island.
The deployment of the first US LNG tanker
With over 130 years of experience in the maritime sector, Crowley has solidified its track record in the logistics and energy solutions industry, operating more than 170 vessels in its fleet. Today, the U.S. company aims to improve Puerto Rico’s energy supply chain by offering an efficient and safe maritime transport system for LNG.
Meanwhile, Naturgy , a Spanish multinational with a strong presence in Puerto Rico since the early 2000s, continues to reaffirm its role as the main LNG supplier on the island. This company continues to promote sustainability in its operations. The collaboration between Naturgy and Crowley in the deployment of this new vessel ensures that natural gas efficiently reaches Puerto Rican consumers.
The deployment of American Energy represents a step forward in Puerto Rico’s energy infrastructure. The LNG tanker will increase the availability of LNG on the island and will also contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions by replacing the use of more polluting fuels .
The collaboration between Crowley and Naturgy is an example of how innovation in the energy and maritime sectors can transform a country’s infrastructure, improving the quality of life of its inhabitants and contributing to the well-being of the planet.
