In 2016 REV LNG built a small-scale LNG facility near Towanda (Bradford County), PA (see REV LNG Building Small-Scale LNG Facility Near Towanda, PA). The plan was to build an initial 50,000-gallon-per-day production facility that could be expanded to 200,000 gallons per day–primarily for fueling trucks, but also for the E&P sector and “eventually for marine customers.” Eventually came this week when LNG from that facility was delivered via truck to the Hamilton-Oshawa Port Authority (in Ontario, Canada), filling up a cargo ship that uses LNG for fuel, otherwise known as LNG bunkering.

September 21, 2020September 21, 2020

Antis continue their public relations push to try and block a northeastern PA LNG liquefaction plant in Wyalusing, PA planned by New Fortress Energy (NFE), by claiming the LNG that will be shipped from the plant to the Philadelphia area, via trucks and rail, will be rolling “bombs on wheels.” However, an article in the Philadelphia Inquirer debunks those lies.
