Monkey Island LNG selects AECOM as environmental consultant
HOUSTON, TX — Monkey Island LNG, formerly known as SCT&E LNG, has selected AECOM to coordinate the environmental analysis and engineering services for the Company's Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) Pre-Filing review process and application. FERC is the siting and construction authority for Monkey Island LNG's 15.75 MMtpy LNG export facility to be developed on Monkey Island in Cameron Parish, Louisiana.
AECOM will draw upon decades of experience permitting major industrial facilities, particularly LNG facilities and natural gas pipelines on the Gulf Coast, to prepare the permitting strategy for the Monkey Island LNG project and begin the FERC application process.
Previously, AECOM completed the Phase 1 Environmental study for the Monkey Island LNG project site and will support the project from their Houston, Texas, Baton Rouge and New Orleans, Louisiana offices.
The Monkey Island LNG facility is expected to reach Final Investment Decision in Q4 2020, at which point the project development team plans to begin construction of the facility. During construction, the project will provide thousands of local and statewide jobs. Once operational, the Monkey Island LNG facility will create hundreds of permanent jobs and will return billions of dollars in revenue to the US.
