Equity Opportunities8-Hub Virtual Pipeline Network
SPV3 distributes LNG across five countries via an eight-hub two-tier network — reaching mining, industrial, transport-CNG, and grid-power customers that major LNG projects do not serve.
Plateau: 153,300 t LNG/yr · Gas-for-diesel at ~25% discount to regional diesel parity ($32/MMBtu) · First wave 2027
10-Hub Virtual Pipeline Network · Tier-1 coastal anchors + Tier-2 inland distribution · ~1,000 t/day LNG plateau by 2032

Where We Are Today
2nd-Decile Global
LNG Carbon Intensity
Platform Scope 1 emissions 6.5 Mt CO₂e/yr at plateau. Avoided emissions through gas-for-diesel substitution ~7 Mt CO₂e/yr — comparable in magnitude to absolute Scope 1. Full TCFD-aligned scenario analysis. IFC Performance Standards Category A/B.
- 0.30 t CO₂e/t LNG well-to-tank — 2nd decile global benchmark
- Methane intensity at plant gate ≤ 0.20% (OGCI Aiming for Zero)
- Zero routine flaring — World Bank ZRF 2030 aligned
- ~7 Mt CO₂e/yr avoided from gas-for-diesel/HFO substitution
- IFC Performance Standards · Equator Principles EP4
