Oncorp and GNLink sign MoU for small-scale LNG distribution

Oncorp and GNLink, both Canadian-headquartered firms, announced an MoU on March 9, 2026, for small-scale LNG road distribution from Oncorp's Pecém terminal in Pernambuco, Brazil. This partnership aims to extend Oncorp's market reach for small-scale LNG within Brazil, leveraging existing infrastructure at Porto de Pecém. The agreement, currently in the development stage, focuses on establishing road-based logistics for gas delivery. Oncorp, known for utility submetering and energy management in Canadian properties, now expands its energy distribution footprint into South America through this Brazilian terminal. The commercial logic centers on monetizing existing terminal assets and tapping into regional demand for gas. Financial terms for this partnership remain undisclosed. Oncorp Utility Services Inc., based in Richmond Hill, Canada, typically provides utility submetering, billing, and energy management solutions for multi-residential and commercial properties across Canada. This Brazilian LNG distribution deal extends Oncorp's energy market engagement beyond its established Canadian service portfolio. GNLink, a Markham, Canada-based telecommunications company, primarily delivers business internet, voice, and IT solutions, focusing on digital infrastructure services across Canada. Its involvement in small-scale LNG road distribution in Pernambuco, Brazil, introduces an unexpected diversification for a firm centered on Canadian telecom. The partnership structure suggests a potential financial or logistical support role from GNLink, rather than direct operational expertise in gas distribution.
