Introduction

Did you know that construction delays due to gas supply issues can cost thousands per day? Temporary natural gas delivery ensures that projects stay on schedule and operational, no matter the circumstances. The demand for temporary natural gas delivery is growing, particularly in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia, where construction projects and businesses often face delays in permanent gas line installations. Blue Gas Express provides temporary natural gas solutions for heating, ensuring businesses and developments stay on schedule and operational.

Our primary clients include utility companies, new construction projects, and businesses facing short-term gas supply disruptions—allowing them to maintain heating operations without delay.

While we offer fast response times (within 24 hours) in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia, we also serve clients nationwide with advance planning.

Industries That Need Scalable Heating Solutions

Primary Clients & Use Cases

• Utility Companies – Blue Gas Express supports utility providers in meeting their commitments by delivering natural gas when infrastructure projects and service connections are delayed.

• New Construction Projects – Subdivisions, commercial buildings, and infrastructure developments require temporary heating to obtain certificates of occupancy before permanent gas lines are completed and to continue operations until the delays have been rectified.

• Emergency Heating Needs – Businesses and facilities facing unexpected gas disruptions, such as gas line damage from an excavation mistake knocking gas lines down for a period of time, require immediate temporary natural gas solutions. Imagine a large resort with multiple dining facilities and a heated pool needing urgent gas supply due to pipeline failures.

• Industrial & Manufacturing – New facilities or existing operations with changes that rely on natural gas for heat-intensive processes need scalable gas delivery to maintain uninterrupted production until the pipeline project is finished.

Why Construction Projects Rely on Temporary Natural Gas

Without access to dependable temporary natural gas, businesses and construction projects face significant challenges:

• Project Delays & Downtime – Delays in gas line installations can stall construction progress, disrupt operations, and create costly setbacks. Blue Gas Express provides a seamless temporary alternative to keep projects moving.

• Lack of Scalable Energy Supply – Businesses that need long-term heating solutions require a flexible energy source that can scale up or down with demand.

• Limited Awareness of Temporary Gas Options – Many general contractors and business owners are unaware that temporary natural gas delivery is a viable option, making education a crucial part of Blue Gas Express’s service.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Virginia’s construction sector grew by 5.8% in 2024, adding 12,500 jobs, while North Carolina experienced a 12.6% increase over five years. This surge highlights the growing need for temporary heating solutions in new developments.

Why Temporary Natural Gas Delivery is the Best Heating Solution for Utility Companies & Builders

• Scalable Energy Supply

• Adjustable Gas Delivery – Clients can increase or decrease their supply based on seasonal demand, expansion, or project needs.

• Flexible Commitment – Businesses receive gas supply as needed, without large-scale commitments, allowing them to adjust to seasonal or project-based demand.

• Reliability & Rapid Deployment

• Fast Setup – Blue Gas Express ensures quick delivery and installation, keeping projects and operations running smoothly.

• Nationwide Service – In the South Atlantic states, we can deploy services within 24 hours in most cases, and with additional planning, we are available anywhere in the U.S.

• Cost Efficiency & Flexibility

• Reduces Unexpected Costs – Scaling gas supply up or down prevents businesses from overpaying for unused fuel and allows building owners to grant immediate occupancy rather than facing costly delays while waiting for permanent gas line installation.

• Seasonal Adaptability – Facilities that experience fluctuating heating needs—such as increased demand in the winter or expansion of heated workspaces—can easily increase their temporary gas supply by adding additional fuel storage units (trailers) as needed, then reduce them when demand decreases.

How Blue Gas Express Delivers Reliable, Scalable Temporary Heating Solutions

Case Studies: How We Keep Projects Moving

Subdivision Development in Raleigh, NC A major utility provider, Enbridge, faced unexpected delays in a 400-home subdivision project in Raleigh, North Carolina. Initially, two trailers were deployed to support heating for two sections of the development. As more homes were completed, demand increased, requiring Blue Gas Express to scale up its supply. By winter, the service expanded significantly to meet growing needs, ensuring the development stayed on track. After a six-month delay, the permanent gas line was finally installed, and Blue Gas Express seamlessly transitioned service back to the utility provider.

Sherwin-Williams Paint Factory in Statesville, NC During the construction of the new Sherwin-Williams paint factory in Statesville, NC, general contractor Choate Construction faced a three-month delay in the permanent gas connection. Blue Gas Express provided temporary heating to maintain ideal conditions for finishing work, including drying paint and ensuring optimal working temperatures for construction crews. The initial connection in August ensured smooth operations through the colder months, allowing the project to reach completion despite additional pipeline delays caused by unexpected bedrock.

️ Emergency Response at a Large Resort & Casino A high-end resort with multiple commercial kitchens and a heated pool was suddenly left without gas after a pipeline issue. With guests and operations at stake, Blue Gas Express swiftly deployed a temporary gas solution, restoring essential services within 24 hours. This rapid response prevented significant revenue loss and reinforced the importance of having a reliable emergency gas supply plan.
