Texas LNG Brownsville LLC, a subsidiary of Glenfarne Energy Transition, LLC, has appointed Kiewit, through its subsidiaries Kiewit Engineering Group Inc. and Kiewit Energy Group Inc., to oversee the engineering, procurement, and construction of its planned four million tonnes per annum liquefied natural gas export terminal in the Port of Brownsville, Texas. The project, structured as a lump-sum turnkey (LSTK) contract, also includes collaborative efforts with Kiewit to expedite the pre-final investment decision engineering necessary for the project to reach a final investment decision, following Texas LNG’s recent announcement that it has secured adequate offtake commitments for FID.
Brendan Duval, CEO and founder of Glenfarne and co-president of Texas LNG, commented, “Texas LNG received immense interest from world-class contractors that wanted to be involved in the project. Kiewit’s proposal, capability, and partnership vision for Texas LNG, as well as their significant execution and implementation expertise on the U.S. Gulf Coast, made a substantial impression on our project team. We look forward to working with them.”
Eric Gutierrez, executive vice president of Kiewit Energy Group Inc., expressed enthusiasm for the collaboration, stating, “Kiewit is excited to partner with Glenfarne to deliver this crucial LNG project in the region. Our extensive experience delivering complex, integrated LNG EPC projects for our clients continues to be a differentiator for our company. We appreciate the opportunity to work with a client committed to developing important energy infrastructure opportunities in the U.S.”
