ODESSA, Texas, Feb. 24, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Saulsbury is pleased to announce the recent award for the EPC delivery of a 10 MMCF/D Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) loading station in West Texas. This EPC contract was awarded from North America’s leading provider of low carbon energy solutions for customers in the energy, utility, and industrial sectors. Saulsbury is proud to be a part of this substantial step towards building a cleaner energy future by providing reliable, clean-burning fuel options to the general public.

Saulsbury is proud to be a part of this substantial step towards building a cleaner energy future.

As a cleaner burning fuel, CNG is more environmentally friendly than other common fuels such as gasoline, diesel, and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). Utilization of CNG in lieu of these other fuel sources significantly reduces the amount of carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrous oxides (NOx) produced during combustion. The increased demand for low carbon energy options is driving expansion across this leading CNG operator’s integrated CNG platform and Saulsbury is pleased to support this growth. Saulsbury will be responsible for the engineering/design of the facility including compressors, heat exchangers, chillers, an electrical power distribution building, and truck loading stations. Saulsbury will also be responsible for the turnkey construction of the facility.

«Partnering with our client on the continued growth of their CNG infrastructure is an exciting step in Saulsbury’s initiatives for diversification and expansion of our core business lines, and yet another step forward for our ESG initiatives.» said Sean Trotter – VP – EPC Engineering & Major Projects.

Saulsbury could not be more pleased to partner with this very important client to bring both company’s dreams of clean energy with lower operating costs and a lower impact on the environmental to fruition.  We are very thankful for this great opportunity to be a part of this vision for the future.

Redwood Markets Launches U.S. LNG Cargo Date Swaps Inside the Redwood Marketplace

HOUSTON, Feb. 24, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Redwood Markets Inc. are pleased to announce the launch of United States Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Cargo Date Swaps inside the Redwood Marketplace LNG Trading Platform.

HOUSTON, Feb. 24, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Redwood Markets Inc. are pleased to announce the launch of United States Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Cargo Date Swaps inside the Redwood Marketplace LNG Trading Platform. The Redwood Marketplace is an online commodity trading platform that enables buyers and sellers of physical liquefied natural gas (LNG) to negotiate and confirm commercial terms while offering central market efficiency, customized complex markets, and multiple trading formats to the global community of LNG stakeholders.

Cargo Date Swaps are intended to address the growing market for loadings of FOB U.S. LNG. The growing market is increasingly complicated by the uncertainty of shipping logistics coupled with narrow loading windows at U.S. liquefaction terminals. U.S. LNG projects require their capacity holders and customers to decide whether they wish to lift or cancel cargoes by a specific date each month. These companies are faced with 4 options:

1. Lift the cargo in a vessel they control
2. Sell the cargo FOB (this can also be via a FOB/DES deal)
3. Swap the lifting date of the cargo for one that offers better logistical efficiency and
potentially profit
4. Cancel the cargo

The first 2 options have existed for some time and are well understood by cargo holders; however, the third option is one that can only be addressed currently by offering the cargo to potential counterparts either directly or via a broker. The Redwood Marketplace offers a faster and more discreet approach.

«U.S. LNG Cargo Date Swaps are a new addition to the Redwood Marketplace designed to initially address the specific needs of U.S. off-takers who are contractually exposed to significant shipping risks,» said Ajay Batra, President of Redwood Markets. «The platform allows off-takers to easily swap their lifting dates with others that have more flexibility, reducing the risk to all off-takers and creating a more efficient U.S. LNG market. Additionally, the platform allows off-takers to anonymously list their need without having to give up their name and situation before finding a trading partner. The platform is designed to support global DES/FOB cargo swaps/exchanges as well and we plan to announce this feature in the next product release in Q2 this year.»

The U.S. LNG Cargo Date Swap markets are available today. To find out more or to request access to the Redwood Marketplace, please contact Redwood Markets at info@redwoodmarkets.com

About Redwood Markets Inc.
Redwood Markets Inc. is the operator of The Redwood Marketplace, an online venue for trading physical liquefied natural gas and other commodities. Redwood Markets specializes in the evolution of commodity markets by providing tools and distribution mechanisms for solutions that reduce the friction involved in negotiating and executing commodity transactions. Through the systematic and planned reduction of trading impediments, Redwood Markets provides a forum where liquidity can be optimized, and thus increasing investment and opportunity for market participants.

MONTPELIER, Vt., Feb. 24, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — The Vermont Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and sComm today announced that they have launched the use of new devices that will enable people who are deaf or hard of hearing to communicate easily and effectively with staff at all DMV locations.

«This is another exciting step in the modernization of Vermont’s DMV,» said Commissioner Wanda Minoli. «Our focus is always on providing superior customer service, and these devices will allow for a much better experience for Vermonters who are deaf or hard of hearing.»

The devices, called UbiDuo 3, contain two keyboards with two small screens to enable the customer and the DMV employee to communicate while opposite each other on either side of the service counter. The DMV partnered with sComm, the leading developer of the UbiDuo, to meet the Department’s goal of providing barrier-free, face-to-face customer service at all branch offices statewide. The UbiDuo enables people who are deaf or hard of hearing to communicate with others without a sign language interpreter by using two-way, simultaneous, real-time keyboards. People who are deaf or hard of hearing and hearing people can now talk to each other face-to-face and interact simultaneously by using this device.

A federal grant award from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) in the amount of $22,954 was used to purchase 11 UbiDuo devices.

Flyers have been posted at all DMV locations to inform customers that the devices are available. All branch counter supervisors have completed a training on how to use the UbiDuo3.

Global and China Automotive Seat Motor Markets, 2020-2026

DUBLIN, Feb. 24, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The «Global and China Automotive Seat Motor Industry Report, 2020-2026» report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

<div…

DUBLIN, Feb. 24, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The «Global and China Automotive Seat Motor Industry Report, 2020-2026» report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

Research and Markets Logo

In the global market of automotive seat motors, Japanese players lead the pack and four out of the world’s top eight seat motor tycoons are from Japan (Denso, Nidec, Mitsuba, and Mabuchi), holding market shares 45% together. In addition, German-based Bosch, Brose and Chinese peers Johnson Electric and Shenghuabo Group are the competitive suppliers.

The automotive seat is a key integral part of a car in relation to ride comfort and safety, and it is growing ever versatile with technological advances. The power seat or electric seat has come to the fore in the market, possessing height regulating motors, sliding motors, electronic control modules, heater, massager, memory among others.

The power seat was first available onto some luxury cars and then equipped progressively to the medium and high-grade models whose sales boom in turn helped a rise in the installation rate of electric seats, which is naturally a boon for the burgeoning demand for automotive seat motors. In 2019, global shipments of power seat motor reached 157 million units, a figure projected to be approximately 147 million units in 2020 due to the still devastating COVID-19 worldwide, to hopefully recover as the pandemic eases and draw close to 217 million units in 2026.

The production and sales of upscale cars is on a steady rise annually in China, the largest producer and consumer of automobiles in the world, calling for more and more automotive seat motors whose shipments in the country in 2019 posted 30.9 million units and enjoyed a global share of more than 24.3%. The faster growing Chinese seat motor market than the global market arises from a transfer of the market demand to the medium- and high-end products and a spurt in sales growth of medium- and high-grade passenger cars, invigorating the seat motor sector measurably.

Boasting at least 300 branches and operations in over 40 countries, Nidec Corporation dedicates itself to the R&D, production and sale of precision small motors to ultra-large electric motors. Also is Nidec second to none in the vehicle motor field, sweeping roughly 16.5% shares in 2019 in the automotive seat motor market and ranking first. Nidec entered China in 1989 and is now in possession of 36 plants, 54 marketing companies and offices with a workforce of virtually 40,000 there. In June 2020, Nidec announced about JPY100 billion or RMB6.5 billion for building a factory (where a R&D base settles) in Dalian city, China, and the base is to produce the driving motors for both battery electric vehicle and home appliances.

As one of the largest suppliers of auto parts and systems in the world, Denso Corporation has 179 associated companies in more than 30 countries and regions. With its automotive motor business mainly from ASMO, Denso is aggressively seeking innovations in its state-of-the-art technologies and electromechanical products and had a business reshuffle with ASMO in 2017 (incorporating the latter’ motor business inclusive of automotive seat motor to Denso). In 2019, Denso held a global share of 13.1% or so in the automotive seat motor market. Denso (Tianjin) Motor Co., Ltd is the largest manufacturing base for automotive seat motors of Denso in China, with annual capacity outnumbering 3 million units.

Established in 1959, Johnson Electric is a large multi-national corporation from Hong Kong (China) and has a strong market leadership in the design, R&D and production of micro motors and integrated motor systems. With about 35,000 contract workers in 23 countries, Johnson Electric is a global leading provider delivering total seat driving solutions for front/rear seat, seat tilt, height regulation, seat reclining, headrest regulation, lumbar support and seat haptic feedback. It seized a global market share of 10.1% in 2019.

EMERYVILLE, Calif., Feb. 24, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Biofacturing leader Zymergen today announced it has promoted Enakshi (Ena) Singh to Chief Financial Officer. Singh has helped Zymergen close more than $1B in equity financing and $100M in debt since joining Zymergen as vice president of finance in 2014, fueling the company’s early growth, testing, de-risking, and product development. Singh’s promotion comes as Zymergen moves into commercial and operational scaling, following the $300M in new investment last year, which has further accelerated their discovery and production of novel, high-performance materials.

«Ena has a proven track record earning the confidence of some of the leading and most demanding global investors to embrace the power and opportunity of biofacturing,» says Josh Hoffmann, Zymergen CEO. «Our business is not your typical cloud or biotech platform, and Ena has charted a masterful financial course for a new kind of science and technology company. She is the right person to lead financial strategy for our next chapter, focusing on expanding our commercial operations and sales.»

Singh previously served as SVP of asset management at Mubadala, Abu Dhabi’s $230B sovereign wealth fund, where she led complex semiconductor investments involving specialized manufacturing and unique investment and scaling models that are a direct parallel for Zymergen’s biofacturing platform. Previously, she was the VP of technology investment banking at Merrill Lynch and an analyst for Latin American investment banking at Salomon Smith Barney. She earned a BA in economics at Cornell University and an MBA at MIT Sloan School of Management.

«Ena’s ability to seamlessly move between investors and customers, coupled with her deep understanding of Zymergen’s business model and technology platform, has garnered enthusiastic support from the board and investors alike,» said Sandi Peterson, Zymergen board member and former Group Worldwide Chairwoman of Johnson & Johnson. «She brings the right experience at the right time to lead Zymergen’s expansion into commercial markets.»

«In seven years, Zymergen has grown from an idea to a thriving platform company, with one product in market and many more on the way,» said Singh. «Zymergen is winning customer confidence that we can discover breakthrough materials, and also scale and deliver them to demanding markets like electronics, consumer care and agriculture. Innovators seek new materials to accomplish today’s toughest challenges — and Zymergen’s biofacturing platform is delivering.»

Based on our early experience, Zymergen develops and launches high-performance products more sustainably and for a fraction of the cost and time that it typically takes using legacy petrochemical techniques. A unique combination of biology, chemistry, software and automation fuels Zymergen’s high-throughput biodiscovery engine, enabling the company to discover, design and commercialize new materials at unprecedented speed. 

About Zymergen
Zymergen is a biofacturing company using biology to reimagine the world. Zymergen partners with nature to create, develop and manufacture breakthrough products and materials across industries – from agriculture to electronics, consumer care to pharmaceuticals, and more. The company produces a suite of high performing, sustainable materials in use today, delivering value for Fortune 500 companies with over $1 billion worth of products using Zymergen microbial innovations sold to date.
