Seaside LNG Announces Expanded C-suite Leadership Team

Business Wire

Seaside LNG, North America’s premier integrated LNG bunkering platform, today announced the appointment of a newly formed C-suite leadership team to guide the company’s next chapter of growth. As the only platform in North America offering integrated shoreside liquefaction, LNG storage and Jones Act-compliant bunkering capabilities under one roof, Seaside LNG is uniquely built to meet the industry’s rapidly expanding demand for cleaner maritime fuel.

The new C-suite leadership team represents a combined century of specialized experience spanning LNG liquefaction, regasification, maritime infrastructure, commercial strategy, and energy finance — the depth required to lead North America’s foremost LNG bunkering company as the market accelerates toward a projected $15+ billion industry by 2030.

“This is a defining moment for Seaside LNG and for North American maritime energy. We have built the infrastructure, assembled the fleet, and now we have the leadership team to match our ambition to grow our established platform. As LNG demand across the shipping industry reaches historic levels, Seaside is the only fully integrated platform on the continent capable of delivering LNG from liquefaction to vessel — safely, reliably, at scale and on schedule.” — Douglas Shanda, Chief Executive Officer, Seaside LNG
