State-owned German LNG terminal operator DET has received in total of 100 LNG cargoes at its two FSRU-based LNG terminals in Wilhelmshaven and Brunsbüttel.
DET announced the milestone cargo in an emailed statement sent to LNG Prime.
According to the firm, the first Wilhelmshaven LNG terminal will receive on Wednesday 165,000 cubic meters of LNG, marking DET’s 100th LNG cargo delivered.
Data by Niedersachsen Ports shows that the 174,000-cbm Dorado LNG is scheduled to deliver a cargo from Venture Global LNG’s Calcasieu Pass plant in Louisiana to Wilhelmshaven later on Wednesday.
In January last year, the 170,000-cbm FSRU Hoegh Esperanza, owned by Norway’s Hoegh LNG and chartered by the German government, received its first LNG cargo in Wilhelmshaven from the US.
The FSRU received 42 LNG cargoes in its first year of operations.
Besides this terminal, DET also operates the Brunsbüttel FSRU-based facility.
The 170,000-cbm FSRU Hoegh Gannet, which serves the Elbehafen LNG import terminal in Brunsbüttel, started supplying regasified LNG to the German grid on March 22, 2023 as part of the commissioning phase.
This terminal recently reached a record sendout rate.
Since the beginning of DET’s operations in January last year, DET has cooperated with a group of partners on these two terminals.
These are Gasfin Development, Reganosa Deutschland, Hoegh, LTeW, Brunsbüttel Ports, KN Energies, and Niedersachsen Ports.
“Out of the 100 deliveries now reached, 71 cargoes arrived at Wilhelmshaven and 29 at Brunsbüttel,” DET said.
“Together, we are not just delivering LNG; we are making an indispensable contribution to a reliable energy supply for households and industries within Germany and Europe,” DET said.
Besides these two operational terminals, DET is also working to launch the Stade terminal and the second Wilhelmshaven facility.
DET recently told LNG Prime that it expects to receive the first cargo at its FSRU-based LNG import terminal in Stade in the second half of this year.
In March, the 2021-built 174,000-cbm FSRU, Energos Force, owned by Apollo’s Energos Infrastructure, arrived at the AVG jetty in Germany’s Stade.
DET also expects commissioning to start at the its second terminal in Wilhelmshaven during the second half of this year.
Excelerate’s 138,000-cbm FSRU Excelsior arrived at the Navantia yard in El Ferrol, Spain last year for a planned stopover before its job in Wilhelmshaven. The FSRU is still located there.
DET recently said it will launch new capacity auctions for its FSRU-based facilities in Brunsbüttel and Wilhelmshaven after it did not receive any bids in the latest marketing round.
