About Hanover Holdings

Seventeen Years.
One Vision.

Hanover Holdings Corporation is a strategic investment and energy infrastructure development firm headquartered across Washington, D.C., Hollywood, Florida, and Kingston, Jamaica. The firm was founded and actively operating by 2008, when Prime Minister Bruce Golding of Jamaica responded on official Jamaica House letterhead to Hanover Holdings' LNG infrastructure proposal — inviting a meeting to discuss LNG feasibility, volume thresholds, and long-term supply contracts.

The Foundation
Hanover Holdings' engagement with Caribbean LNG infrastructure development spans two Jamaican administrations — from direct meetings with Prime Minister Bruce Golding and Minister of Energy Clive Mullings in 2008, through sustained engagement with Minister of Energy Phillip Paulwell in the Simpson Miller administration, culminating in the U.S.–Jamaica Memorandum of Intent signed at President Obama's official state visit to Jamaica on April 10, 2015.
The Validation
In May 2025, Excelerate Energy acquired New Fortress Energy's entire Jamaica LNG portfolio for US$1.055 billion — validating precisely the thesis Hanover Holdings has been advancing since 2008. The regional hub, the distribution platform serving the wider Caribbean Basin, remains unbuilt. That is what Hanover Holdings is building now.
The Moment
The market, policy environment, and geopolitical landscape have converged simultaneously in favour of this project. U.S. LNG export capacity at record levels. The current Administration's energy dominance agenda. China's Belt and Road expansion in the Caribbean. The Panama Canal confrontation. The window is open now.

The International LNG Hub of the Americas

The Regional Hub
That Remains Unbuilt.

Port Esquivel, St. Catherine, Jamaica. A deepwater port at the geographic centre of the Caribbean Basin, 600 nautical miles from the U.S. Gulf Coast, adjacent to the Panama Canal corridor. The site identified by the Jamaican government for large-scale LNG infrastructure development since 2005.

01
Phase 1 — Foundation (Years 1–3)
FSRU + onshore LNG terminal, 160,000 m³ storage, regasification plant (400–600 MMscf/d), marine jetty, transmission pipeline to anchor offtakers. Capex: US$800M–1.2B.
02
Phase 2 — Expansion (Years 3–5)
Additional storage (240,000 m³ total), small-scale LNG distribution fleet, marine bunkering facility, industrial customer connections. Capex: US$600M–1.0B.
03
Phase 3 — Regional Integration (Years 5–8)
3–5 satellite receiving terminals across the Caribbean and Central America, integrated gas-to-power projects, petrochemical downstream evaluation. Capex: US$1.1B–1.8B.
04
U.S. Strategic Alignment
Directly aligned with DOE LNG export authorisations (42 issued, 55.3 Bcf/d total), DFC investment authority, USTDA Global Gas Initiative, and EXIM Bank's China and Transformational Exports Program.
05
Revenue Architecture
Long-term tolling agreements (60–65%), regasification fees, LNG trading margins, marine bunkering revenues, and gas-to-power offtake. Stabilised EBITDA: US$380–540M at 70–72% margins.
06
Transaction Benchmark
Excelerate Energy's US$1.055B Jamaica LNG acquisition at 9x EBITDA (May 2025) established the valuation framework. Implied Hub enterprise value at stabilisation: US$2.8–6.5B.

"The Hub is not competing with Excelerate. Excelerate validated the Jamaica market. The Hub builds what comes next — the regional aggregation and redistribution platform serving the wider Caribbean Basin that no operator has yet built."
