Before we get started, I want to share a project highlight that also illustrates our commitment to safety and quality.
This is one of four air raises that Matrix has safely completed in the last four months, each supporting infrastructure for different fuels and feedstocks including LNG, ethane, liquid propane gas, ammonia, and butane.
An air raise is a complex process that uses air pressure to safely lift and position a large steel dome roof, the weight of which can be well over 1,000,000 pounds.
This is a pivotal step in the construction of the storage tank.
The project being highlighted here is for Dominion Energy's Brunswick Greensville Storage Facility, which is a greenfield project for Matrix and supports the Brunswick County and Greensville County power stations.
The project features a 25-million-gallon, full-containment LNG storage tank providing backup fuel supply for 700,000 businesses and homes.
Projects like these are core to our mission of supporting major energy companies, advancing American infrastructure, and connecting U.S. energy to the world.
The successful execution of these consecutive airlifts on complex, high-profile projects highlights Matrix's technical expertise, commitment to safety, and dedication to delivering exceptional outcomes for our clients and the communities that rely on these critical assets.
I will now turn the call over to Sean.
UNKNOWN, President and CEO Thank you, Patrick.
