Harvest Midstream Taps Kenai LNG for Southcentral Energy Solution
Harvest Midstream is positioning its Kenai LNG facility as a near-term energy solution for Southcentral Alaska's anticipated natural gas needs. The company aims to reactivate the existing facility as an LNG import terminal, which will provide a flexible platform to expand the use of Alaska-sourced natural gas across the state.
According to Harvest CEO Jason C. Rebrook, 'We focus on practical projects that solve real energy challenges, and then we execute.' The company has already delivered North Slope natural gas to Interior Alaska through its North Slope LNG facility near Deadhorse, which represents the first commercial delivery of North Slope gas.
The project is expected to significantly improve local air quality and reduce emissions by up to 2,000 tons per year. Harvest's North Slope LNG facility has capacity available today to serve additional utility, industrial, and community demand as requirements grow over time.
