THE NATURAL GAS SUPPLY SOLUTION

FOR CENTRAL AMERICA AND THE CARIBBEAN

Proprietary Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Technology & Lowest Cost Gas Transport
Introduction
INDUSTRY: Compressed Natural Gas
Andalusian Energy is a natural gas compression and transportation company using mature
(CNG) Containerized Logistics
conventional compression techniques, enhanced with a patented and exclusive process refrigeration
HQ LOCATION: Houston, Texas technology. This allows us to fill and store approximately 50% more gas in the same size cylinder
than other CNG alternatives and achieve approximately 60% of LNG density. Using a proven

Key Competitive Advantages
PORTS OF DESTINATION: ■ Price advantage over LNG competitors: Given the Project’s distance and volume, Andalusian’s
Puerto Cortes, Honduras (Confirmed) CNG solution is lower than the price for LNG due to (i) Andalusian’s significantly lower upfront fixed
Puerto Barrios, Guatemala (Confirmed) cost structure for the compression, which is a small fraction of its LNG competitors, and (ii) the lack
TIMELINE: 2025 in service of need for an expensive and complex regasification terminal at the receiving end.
■ Price advantage over CNG competitors: By using Intermodal ISO containerized CNG cylinders
IP: Multiple patents and Export Permits
and International Authorizations in Place and standard ISO container ships modified to maximize natural gas containerized payloads,
Andalusian’s transportation costs are a fraction of that of CNG competitors. The proprietary “chill and
fill” technology allows for increased natural gas volumes per container, further cutting costs.
■ Reliability: By applying conventional container ships, any downtime or maintenance can be easily
overcome without any interruption in service to the end user’s power plants. Instead of relying on a
single ship, single terminal, and single pipeline, the redundancy in the containers, ships, and
equipment in Andalusian’s supply chain enable a superior delivery guarantee than alternatives.
■ Improved last-mile logistics: Andalusian Energy can deliver these proprietary CNG containers
to a destination port, and then these containers can be transported to power plants where there are
no existing pipelines and natural gas storage facilities. All our CNG competitors must deliver to a
place where there are existing pipelines and natural gas storage facilities.
Low-Cost Gas Virtual Pipeline
Andalusian Energy’s business model is to create a virtual natural gas pipeline over the water to
the power plant by filling containers at its compression facility plant on the US Gulf Coast, loading
the containers onto conventional container ships, dropping off the full containers at the delivery
point and picking up the empty ones to be returned to the plant on the Gulf Coast to
sequentially repeat the process. Andalusian’s low cost, clean burning CNG is the best positioned
alternative to displace expensive and polluting diesel and heavy fuel oil currently being used in
Central America for base electricity production. Power plants utilizing the CNG could then
charge lower power prices and receive higher dispatch, or some combination of the two. We are
uniquely positioned to supply and transport natural gas to gas users and make a positive impact Central America &
Caribbean Countries
for the development and diversification of power generation, for the long term.
