THE LNG OPERATING LNG IMPORT AND BUNKER FUEL WILL SERVE THE LNG FUEL/BUNKERING GREATER GALVESTON / TERMINALS AND RELATED HOUSTON PORT COMPLEX BY INFRASTRUCTURE. THE SUPPLYING CLEAN BURNING COMPANY AIMS TO ESTABLISH LNG TO THE RAPIDLY LNG TERMINAL AND LOGISTICS EXPANDING FLEET OF LNG- OPPORTUNITIES WORLDWIDE FUELED VESSELS. TO MEET GROWING NATURAL GAS DEMAND. 1 Why LNG as a Marine Fuel? • New international regulations effective January 01, 2020 require the shipping industry to burn fuels with <0.5% Sulphur (SOx) globally • In certain regions (US, Europe), the regulations are more stringent <0.1% • LNG has much lower emissions than conventional marine fuels • LNG emits zero SOx • LNG has virtually no particulate matter • LNG emits 90% less NOx vs. conventional HFO • LNG as a marine fuel is less costly when compared to low Sulphur fuel oil Pilot LNG Source: DNV-GL 2020 2 LNG as a Marine Fuel: Emissions • LNG has a much better emissions performance than conventional fuels and solutions. • LNG emits zero Sox, and very low particulate matter. • Compared to existing heavy marine fuel oils, LNG can, depending on the technology used, emit 80% to 90% fewer NOx emissions. • Utilizing best practices and appropriate technologies to minimize methane leakage, realistic reductions of GHG by 10-20% are achievable, with a potential for up to 25% compared with conventional oil-based fuels.

Abstract The foremost objective of this project is to demonstrate the importance of the ports in the State of Texas to the economy of the State and the Nation. Traditionally, the economic value of the state's ports has focused upon the economic impact to the region or a small sector of the state. Seldom has the full interior regions of the state been considered in the economic value of the ports. Moreover, the assessment will provide information including data, analyses and findings that may be used by TxDOT in developing a statewide port planning assistance program.

Abstract This study undertook an economic impact exercise for all Texas ports, updated a similar study done a decade earlier, and so assisted TxDOT with incorporating the most recent marine port impacts into their state transportation planning. The study was awarded to a joint CTR-TTI team but work did not begin until the scope was clarified by TxDOT, following concerns expressed by some members of the Texas Ports Association (TPA). Almost all the larger Texas ports had undertaken economic impact studies and were understandably concerned about any new study providing different answers.

  • Chapter 4 – State of the Bay, Third Edition
    CHAPTER 4 – STATE OF THE BAY, THIRD EDITION The Human Role, Present Written & Revised by Lisa A. Gonzalez The segment of the planet Earth called the coastal zone is especially important in the context of diversity and human interactions. This is by far the most populated and urbanized portion of our planet, as well as the richest and among the most perturbed. It is a bit surprising that it is also not the most familiar in concept and dimension, in view of the fact that so many people live within it or near it. —G. Carlton Ray, Sustainable Use of the Global Ocean, (1989) Introduction Human activities in and around Galveston Bay have shaped the watershed for thousands of years. The categories of resource use are wide ranging. From humans’ creation of the first shell middens to the present dredging of numerous navigation channels, human inhabitants have an impact on the bay and its surrounding landscape. As the human population grows, society’s influence on the physical and ecological components of the estuarine system becomes more pronounced. Anthropogenic stresses are placed upon the bay’s natural resources and the ecosystem services that they provide (such as clean air and water, flood attenuation, and wildlife habitat). The stressors diminish the health of the estuary and its watershed, as well as the quality of life of residents. The physical and ecological condition of Galveston Bay is a general indicator of the well-being of the regional environment. Most people realize that the bay is an important regional ecosystem, and they have a keen State of the Bay interest in protecting and maintaining its – Figure 4.1.
