新堡垒能源公司为LNG基础设施提供建设资金

总部位于纽约的新堡垒能源公司(New Fortress Energy)从阿波罗全球管理公司(Apollo Global Management)旗下子公司管理的资金和账户中获得了8亿美元贷款，为其液化天然气基础设施提供建设资金。

这笔贷款的净收入将用于资助新堡垒在全球各地的能源基础设施项目的开发和建设，并全额偿还该公司现有的5亿美元定期贷款安排。

新堡垒集团董事长兼首席执行官韦斯•伊登斯表示:“这笔交易为我们提供了额外的资金，让我们能够继续在全球各地建设液化天然气接收站和基础设施。”

阿波罗是一家全球另类投资管理公司，截至2019年9月，该公司管理着约3,230亿美元的资产，涉及信贷、私募股权和不动产基金。

新堡垒能源公司已在牙买加和波多黎各开发液化天然气基础设施，并已签约开发液化天然气终端，向安哥拉供应天然气用于发电。

New Fortress Energy secures funds for LNG infrastructure

New York City-based New Fortress Energy secured an $800 million loan from funds and accounts managed by units of Apollo Global Management, to fund its LNG infrastructure.

Net proceeds of the loan will be used to fund the development and construction of New Fortress’s energy infrastructure projects around the world, and to repay the company’s existing $500 million term loan facility in full.

“This transaction provides additional capital for us to continue to build LNG terminals and infrastructure around the world,” said New Fortress chairman and CEO Wes Edens.

Apollo is a global alternative investment manager with approximately $323 billion of assets under management as of September 2019 in credit, private equity and real assets funds invested across a core group of nine industries where Apollo has considerable knowledge and resources.

New Fortress Energy has been developing liquefied natural gas infrastructure in Jamaica and Puerto Rico and has also been contracted to develop a liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal to supply natural gas to Angola for power generation.
