J&F Group natural gas infrastructure expansion

Overview

The J&F Group is expanding its presence in the Brazilian natural gas and energy sectors through new infrastructure projects and acquisitions.

In mid-August, the group announced plans via its subsidiary, Âmbar Energia, to construct a liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal and a large-scale thermoelectric power plant in the Suape Port region of Pernambuco. This project intends to integrate the receipt of imported gas, regasification, and energy generation.

By the end of August, Brazil’s Administrative Council for Economic Defense (Cade) approved the J&F Group’s lease of the Terminal Gás Sul (TGS) in Santa Catarina. Currently operated by the U.S.-based New Fortress Energy, the terminal provides maritime infrastructure for Floating Storage and Regasification Units (FSRU) and connects to the Bolivia-Brazil Gas Pipeline. This lease is expected to support the group’s expansion and serve the energy requirements of Âmbar.
