A new logistics company has launched in Louisiana with a mission to offer U.S.-based, veteran-owned solutions for capital projects across the Gulf Coast region.
Gulf of America Logistics (GOAL), led by managing partner Brent Patterson, a U.S. Navy logistics veteran and former SVP at Blue Water Shipping, will support clients executing major capital projects across sectors such as LNG, petrochemicals, power generation, and infrastructure.
“The Gulf Coast is currently one of the hottest markets for capital projects in North America,” says Patterson. “From hydrogen hubs to carbon capture and refinery expansions, the demand for heavy-lift and specialized transport services is accelerating, and yet there have been very few local solutions providers. GOAL is here to change that.”
Key takeaways:
· GOAL’s leadership team combines technical expertise with local regulatory knowledge and political insight. The company offers a full suite of logistics services, including transportation engineering, feasibility studies, barging, rail and trucking, chartering, customs clearance, and HSSEQ.
- While GOAL is focused primarily on delivering for U.S. capital projects, it also provides international 3PL support and multimodal solutions through its extended network.
