Dobson supports liquid natural gas terminals in coastal Alabama [Video]

MOBILE, Ala. (WKRG) — Congressional candidate Caroleene Dobson says she would support Liquified Natural Gas terminals in the Mobile Bay area.

Those facilities were met with strong citizen backlash when proposed for lower Alabama more than 15 years ago.

Energy independence has been a priority of Dobson as she campaigns for the District 2 congressional seat.

“We need to be encouraging responsible development of all of our energy sources,” Dobson told News 5. “Natural gas is remarkably cleaner than gasoline.”

Dobson said Alabama should expand its natural gas industries including liquified natural gas.

In the LNG process, natural gas is cooled in terminals to negative 160 degrees Celsius when it becomes a liquid. It is then transferred to ships and sent primarily to Europe where it is re-gasified.
