SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

License Application 

Deepwater ports must be licensed, 

and the license process is governed by 

the Deepwater Port Act of 1974, as 

amended, 33 U.S.C. 1501 et seq. The 

Gulf Landing Deepwater Port license 

application was submitted to the 

Secretary of Transportation on 

November 3, 2003. Additional 

information concerning the contents of 

the application can be found online at 

http://dms.dot.gov under docket number 

USCG–2004–16860, or in the notice of 

application published in the Federal 

Register at 69 FR 3165 (Jan. 22, 2004), 

pages 3165–3167. 

Proposed Deepwater Port 

The application plan calls for 

construction of a deepwater port and 

associated anchorages in an area 

situated in the Gulf of Mexico, 

approximately 38 miles south of 

Cameron, Louisiana, in West Cameron 

Lease Block Number 213, in water depth 

of approximately 55 feet, and adjacent 

to an existing shipping fairway servicing 

the Calcasieu River and area ports. 

Gulf Landing’s terminal would be 

capable of storing up to 200,000 cubic 

meters of liquefied natural gas (LNG). 

On average, Gulf Landing expects the 

terminal would vaporize and deliver 1 

billion cubic feet per day (Bcfd) of 

natural gas to the pipelines; with a peak 

daily send-out rate of 1.2 Bcfd. Gulf 

Landing proposes to construct, own, 

and operate up to 5 offshore pipelines, 

ranging from 16 to 36 inches in diameter 

that would traverse a combined 65.7 

nautical miles. The pipelines would 

interconnect with existing natural gas 

pipelines located in the Gulf of Mexico. 

Gas would then be delivered to the 

onshore national pipeline grid for 

delivery to any consumption market 

east of the Rocky Mountains. 

The project would consist of two 

concrete gravity base structures (GBSs) 

housing the LNG containment facilities, 

along with topside unloading and 

vaporization equipment, living quarters, 

and a ship berthing system. 

The terminal would be able to receive 

LNG carriers with cargo capacities 

between 125,000 and 200,000 cubic 

meters and unload up to 135 LNG 

carriers per year. All marine systems, 

communication, navigation aids and 

equipment necessary to conduct safe 

LNG carrier operations and receiving of 

cargo during specified atmospheric and 

sea states would be provided at the port. 

The regasification process would 

consist of lifting the LNG from storage 

tanks, pumping the cold liquid to 

pipeline pressure, subsequent 

vaporization of the LNG across heat 

exchanging equipment, and send-out 

through custody transfer metering to the 

gas pipeline network. No gas 

conditioning is required for the terminal 

since the incoming LNG would be 

pipeline quality.
