Harvest Midstream is committed to enhancing Alaska’s energy landscape through several initiatives. They support North Slope production, deliver natural gas to Interior Alaska, and develop key infrastructure to meet the state’s evolving energy needs.
CEO Jason C. Rebrook emphasized the company’s focus on practical projects that address real energy challenges, particularly highlighting efforts at the Kenai LNG facility, which aims to re-utilize existing infrastructure for Alaskans.
The North Slope LNG facility near Deadhorse has successfully delivered North Slope gas commercially, benefiting the Interior Gas Utility, and is expected to reduce emissions significantly as more homes transition from fuel oil and wood to natural gas. The facility has available capacity to meet growing demand.
Harvest is also advancing the Kenai LNG facility as a solution for Southcentral Alaska’s anticipated natural gas needs. Discussions with utilities are underway to reactivate it as an LNG import terminal. The timeline suggests the facility could start receiving LNG as early as 2029, contingent on regulatory approvals and utility commitments.
In the short term, LNG imports will play a crucial role in ensuring reliable energy for homes in Southcentral Alaska, while longer-term solutions are explored. Harvest remains focused on practical and flexible infrastructure to connect Alaska’s energy resources with local communities, ensuring energy security for residents.
