Pentex stepping into transportation

In addition to Fairbanks Natural Gas LLC and Polar LNG LLC, Pentex Alaska Natural Gas Co. recently created a third subsidiary in Alaska: Arctic Energy Transportation LLC.

Arctic Energy Transportation is a fueling company targeting the Alaska transportation industries. It recently opened a compressed natural gas filling station in Fairbanks, and liquefied natural gas filling stations in Fairbanks and Houston, a small town near Wasilla.

The company will also help Fairbanks Natural Gas serve its traditional customers.

Fairbanks Natural Gas recently purchased two LNG powered trucks as a pilot project, and was satisfied enough to bring the vehicles into service. The trucks will now use the Arctic Energy Transportation fueling stations to make deliveries of LNG between the Fairbanks Natural Gas liquefaction plant in Point MacKenzie and its grid in Fairbanks.
